ADAT HD24 Reference Manual
To change the TCP/IP settings:
These instructions assume that your Macintosh is
NOT connected already to a network. If you're
already on a network, you may need to follow
special instructions from the person in charge of it.
1. Under the Apple Menu, select
C o n t r o l
Panels
, then
TCP/IP
.
2. I n T C P / I P ' s F i l e m e n u , s e l e c t
Configurations
.
3. Select any configuration, and duplicate it.
When it asks you for a name, rename the
configuration something like "ADAT Transfer".
4. Click on the new duplicate and then on
"Make
Active"
(or press the Return key).
5. At the top of the TCP/IP screen, change
"Connect via:" to Ethernet.
6. Set "Configure" to Manually.
7. Set the IP Address to the number you intend to
use for your computer.
We recommend "192.168.1.1" if you intend to have
a single connection between one Mac and the
HD24. If you're connecting to a larger network,
you'll have to contact the administrator of your
network to get the number for your computer, if it
isn't there already. See "More about IP addresses"
on page 86.
8. Set the Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, or other
number set by your network administrator.
9. If you're not on a network, erase all other fields
for Router address, Name server address,
domain name server, etc. Otherwise, leave
them alone.
When you're done, the TCP/IP window should
look something like this:
One last step: click on the Options button and
click the Active button to make TCP/IP active.
You can also check the "Load only when needed"
box, and your web browser will automatically
turn it on for you.
