Connecting to an Ethernet network
Eco9 can be connected to a standard 10-baseT Ethernet network allowing full
control of the Eco9 from a remote location.
Network connection
To connect an Eco9 to a network you will need the following items:
• A spare 10-baseT network point.
• A RJ-45 network cable (CAT5 or equivalent).
• A static IP address and Subnet mask (some networks may also require a
Default gateway, consult the network administrator for advice).
To configure the Eco9 on the network you will need to perform the following
steps:
1. Enter the Eco9 menu (press and hold the Mode/Menu button).
2. Tap the Mode/Menu button until the ‘System Options’ page is displayed.
3. Use the cursors to select ‘Network settings’
4. Enter the ‘Network settings’ menu by highlighting ‘Edit’ and pressing the up
or down cursor.
5. Enter the IP address, Subnet mask and Default gateway in the spaces.
Note: The addresses are four sets of three digits, if you have only two digits
in the address insert a 0 before the number i.e. 123.123.123.001
6. Press the Mode/Menu button to exit the menu.
7. Press camera 1 to accept the changes and reboot the system, or press
Mode/Menu again to exit without changing the settings.
Viewing images across the network

icon, you will be prompted to Save or Run the program.
4. Select ‘Run this application from its current location’.
