And yet I can't seem to use the sensor. Computer acknowledges I'm connected to something but ping says it is unreachable or times out. Using the get_distance sample in urg_library 1.2.0 results in Urg_driver::open(): 192.168.0.10: could not open ethernet port.
And urgBenri just doesn't do anything at all.
Can anyone help me out here?

I see my ethernet adapter local area connection has the IPv4 192.168.0.100
Nothing else has an IPv4 that follows that pattern.

Some more information,
Though I thought I had successfully done the IP reset it seems that I may not have. When I touch the IP reset line with the com- line for more than 2 seconds the sensors led light does not blink and the sensor does not reboot.

I figured it out, the IP was in fact changed from the default. I was able to determine what it was changed to with wireshark, now that I had the new IP I was able to connect to it with Benri and change the IP back to the default IP and all is well.

I'm trying to use a UST-20LX with an ethernet connection on a windows 7 laptop.
It has power, blue led is on. I've hard reset the IP as far as I'm aware by touching the COM- and INPUT wires together longer than 2 seconds according to the specs.
I followed everthing in the following guides except for the serial port part.

Hi,
Please type "ipconfig" in a terminal window. Do you see in any of the adapters has an address which looks like this: 192.168.0.XXX?

Yes,
Ethernet adapter local area connection has an IPv4 of 192.168.0.100
That is the only adapter with an address of that form that I see.

What voltage are you supplying at COM+/COM-?

Here are the UST-20LX I/O schematics:
the I/O power supply is for the photocouplers. You can use the same VIN+/VIN- power source lines to supply COM+/COM-.
BTW: If you still are refering to the UST-20LX it does not have a red LED but a blue one.
