Viewing the Network settings
The View Settings option displays the current network configuration for the ProFusion M5. This includes the IP
type (DHCP or static), IP address, subnet ask, default gateway, and the IP address of the FTP server the ProFu-
sion M5 will connect to for updates.
Viewing the Network Settings from the Title/Artist screen:
sTeP 1 Press the ENTER button to access the Control Panel menu system.

is highlighted, then press the ENTER button.
sTeP 3 Press the DOWN button until

Modifying the network settings incorrectly will likely render the ProFusion M5 unable to connect for updates.
Proceed only at the direction of your network administrator or dMX.
Modifying the iP Type
The Set IP Type option allows you to change between DHCP and static IP addressing, as well as set the IP ad-
dress, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS addresses for static IP addressing.
When changing the IP type from DHCP to static, it will be necessary to enter the IP address, Subnet Mask, and
Gateway. Please have your network settings available before changing from DHCP to static.
