To link up via TCP/IP, you need to know the IP address of your
processor.
ƒ
DHCP
By default, the Ethernet cards supplied by IDT Sound Processing Corporation are
configured to always request an IP address from DHCP server on the network
you’re linked to. You should then ask the network administrator to give you the IP
address attributed to your processor, and possibly to create a DHCP reservation
for this address to make sure it’s never changed.
If your processor has a fixed address attributed to it and you wish to return to an
automatic configuration of the TCP/IP parameters, you should follow the
following steps and select « Dynamic addressing (DHCP) » in the Address
Parameter screen of the processor.
ƒ
Attribution of a fixed IP address for your processor.
If your network does not have a DHCP server and you connect directly (by a
crossed RJ45 cable) to the processor, or if this is imposed by your administrator
you can attribute a fixed address to your processor.
To do so you must have installed the « IP Remote Manager » software.
Connect your PC to the RS232 serial port located next to the RJ45 of your
processor.
Launch « IP Remote Manager » via the shortcut in the Start menu: « programs,
IDT Sound Processing, Tools, IP Remote Manager ».
