Making The Ethernet Connection

This chapter describes the steps that are taking in order to connect the Marquee to an ethernet network
or configuration PC to allow the configuration of the Marquee.

In most cases, the first step in configuring the Marquee is physically connecting the Marquee to what is
known as a configuration PC. A configuration PC can be a laptop or desk-top PC that is equipped with
an ethernet port and has WEB browser software installed. There are many different WEB browsers
available on the market today. Please refer to the documentation for WEB browser that is being used if
it is not clear what is needed to be accomplished.

The Marquee can be connected directly to a PC’s ethernet port or connected to the facility network. It
is recommended that the first time a user connects to the user connects directly to the Marquee and does
not connect to the facility network. By connecting directly, the user has more control over the ethernet
network settings and the need to consult with the IT department or network administrator of the facility.

Note:

Prior to connecting to the facility network, it is highly recommended to consult the facility
IT department or the network administrator of the facility.
