Ethernet
The Ethernet cable from the display can connect to a media player/computer, a router (switch),
or an Intranet. A network connection enables the use of the Video Over Ethernet software to
assign a media player to drive the display. The connection also allows the HP Network Sign
Manager program, running on a networked media player/computer, to send command data.
Connect the Ethernet cable (not included) using one of the following connections:
●
Computer Direct Connection—Connect the LAN cable to the LAN port on the display and to
the LAN port on the media player/computer (1).
●
Router—Connect the LAN cable to the LAN port on the display and to a LAN port on the
router (2).
●
Intranet—Connect the LAN cable to the LAN port on the display and to the Intranet network
via an access point (3).
