IP addresses are pre-configured and use UDP multicasting as the default setting.  This gives 
the lowest  latency  and  control  response.   The  system  is  plug-and-play if  used  on  the  same 
network.  To use it over the internet it is best to set up a VPN. (Virtual Private Network).  No 
re-configuration is required if this is done.   
 
To re-configure the IP settings contact BR Remote for a link to the web tools.
