Steps to connect Cinemage to a network router.
Before connecting the Cinemage unit to your network, always check with your network administrator.
1. Determine if your network will require the Cinemage unit to be set for static IP or dynamic IP
(DHCP) addressing. Typically most networks use dynamic addressing.
2. Go to the
System Setup: Network &USB Datakey Setup: Wired/Wireless LAN Setup
Menu.
3. Under the menu item “
Wired Mode:
“set the system for either DHCP mode or Static IP.
4. If the system is set for DHCP Mode skip step 5
5. If the system will be set for Static IP setup the appropriate numbers for Wired Static IP
address, Subnet Mask and IP Gateway. See Appendix A to edit this in the prefs.xml file.
6. If you desire to restrict access to files stored on the Cinemage unit you may restrict access by
setting a user name and password for local network access. If security is not a concern, the
default setting is a username of “guest” with no password. Go to the file sharing setup menu;
System Setup: Network &USB Datakey Setup: File Sharing Setup Menu.
To setup a
username and password.
7. In the File Sharing setup menu reset the systems network status by toggling the “
File
Sharing Status
” menu from “enabled” to “disabled” and back to “enabled”

entered is accurate under IP address.
