ETHERNET NETWORK CONNECTION
The GCP unit can be remotely accessed using an Ethernet network connection. Ethernet 1 and
Ethernet 2 ports on the Display module are generally used for such a connection, however, the
Laptop port can be used for this purpose as well using a RJ-45 to RJ-45 Ethernet cable. Set the
port to be used to the Client mode (see Section 2.4.1.5 for details or for the Laptop port see
Section 2.4.1.4), the external network will assign the Display module an IP address and
establish communications.
WARNING
DO NOT CONNECT A NETWORK TO THE LAPTOP ETHERNET
PORT IF THE PORT HAS BEEN CONFIGURED AS A SERVER,
THIS WILL CAUSE DISRUPTION TO THE NETWORK. IF A
NETWORK IS TO BE CONNECTED TO THE LAPTOP PORT,
CONFIGURE THE LAPTOP PORT DHCP AS A CLIENT.
