CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
33
The DTX5001-R and DTX5002-R user stations have been preconfigured with factory-
default network settings. If you install only one DTX5002-R user station and one
DTX5002-T transmitter on a subnet, you do not need to change these default network
settings. If you install multiple units on the same subnet, you will need to assign a unique
IP address to each unit or configure them for DHCP. This can be done via the serial port
and must be carried out before displaying multiple devices on the same network.
NOTE:
The DHCP server must be configured to assign IP addresses to the user station that do not expire. Do not
change the mode to DHCP unless the equipment is connected to a DHCP server.
To install the DTX5001-R or DTX5002-R user station and DTX5001-T and
DTX5002-T transmitter on a network:
1. Connect the transmitter to the remote workstation. Connect one end of the UTP cable
to the transmitter’s RJ-45 connector. Connect the other end of the UTP cable to the
Ethernet network.
2. Connect the user station to the peripherals. Use a length of UTP cable to connect the
user station to the Ethernet network via the RJ-45 connector on the rear of the user
station.
3. Turn on the user station. A connection will be automatically established with the
remote workstation.
4. Use the serial menu to reconfigure the network settings for the transmitter.
NOTE:
If the DTX5002-R user station and DTX5002-T transmitter are to be located on different subnets, configure
their network settings before you connect to the network.
NOTE:
If there are already transmitters and user stations operating on the subnet, configure network settings of the
new transmitter and user station pair before connecting them to the network.
