Configuring a Computer for the MXP

6012-33 Installation Manual

4-1

Configuring a Computer for the MXP

The first thing you need to do is to configure your computer so that it will display the MXP screens. Follow these instructions to

accomplish that.

Connect a LAN cable to the back of your

computer. If you are connecting into a LAN,

instead of a single computer, you will need to

provide a connection from your LAN
router/hub/switch to the MXP.

Connect the other end of the LAN cable to the

back of the MXP.

Power on the MXP.
