To connect one or more AEW-R5200 receivers to an existing
network to which your computer is also connected:
You will need an Ethernet hub and sufficient Ethernet cables to
connect all receivers to the hub, plus one cable to connect the
hub to the network.
1. Check with the network administrator to make certain the
network you are connecting to supports DHCP. If it does not,
ask the network administrator for assistance before
proceeding.
2. Making certain that all hardware is turned off, connect the
hub to your network and to the AEW-R5200(s) by running
RJ-45-terminated cables from the receiver(s) and network to
the hub. (See Figures A and B on page 6.)
3. Power the hub, power the receivers as instructed in
Installing and Using the Software
(page 10), and then
power the computer, ensuring that all connections are live.
4. Run the software on the connected computer. The
AEW-R5200 units will obtain their own IP addresses.
To connect one or more AEW-R5200 receivers using DHCP-
supporting router:
1. In Windows, open the
Network and Dial-up Connections
(or
Network Neighborhood
for Win 98) window and
create a LAN or High Speed Internet connection to your
network card.
2. Under
Networking
, click on
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) >
Properties
.
3. Set TCP/IP settings to
Obtain IP address automatically
.
4. Connect a single AEW-R5200 receiver to a DHCP-supporting
router that is connected to the computer's Ethernet card
(see Figure C).
5. Power the receiver as instructed in
Installing and Using the
Software
(page 10), and then run the software on your
connected computer.
Use the same method for connecting multiple AEW-R5200
units via DHCP-supporting router.
