3. Quick Start
Introduction
This Quick Start provides instructions for setting up a Neuron frame with processing module(s) on a
network. If you are not setting up your Neuron on a network, please refer to the NFR2000/NFR2001
manual for more information.
Network Requirements
Before you set up your Neuron, you must have the following:
•
A working 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet network using TCP/IP protocols
•
Network PC(s) that meet the system requirements for Cerebrum/Cortex
•
An open port on a 10/100/1000Base-T network hub or switch
•
A Cat5 network cable with RJ-45 connectors
•
A DHCP server on the network automatically assigning IP addresses to the Neuron processing
boards and the computer in the same range. If the IP address is unknown, it can be discovered using
Bonjour. Please refer to the section "Module's IP Address is Unknown" below.
Connecting Neuron
To connect Neuron, please follow these steps:
•
Make sure that the NFR2000/NFR2001 is powered down and the power supply cables are not
plugged in.
•
Connect Neuron to the network switch using the second from the left RJ45 Ethernet connector of
the processing board(s).
•
Connect a computer which meets the Cerebrum/Cortex minimum requirements to the same network.
•
Plug the power supply cable(s) into the Neuron frame and then into a power outlet.
