QUICK START GUIDE:

 Control Server

Configuring IP Parameters

Locating Hardware

Discovery of, and connection to, Control 

Server hardware is done with the Locate 

Hardware dialog found under the Hardware 

menu or by clicking the Locate Hardware icon 

in the tool bar or on a particular Control Server 

unit itself.

IP Configuration with Composer

The Locate Hardware dialog will scan the network and 

list available units. Select the Control Server unit you 

wish to assign an IP address to and click the Properties 

button. If you wish to assign Control Server a static IP 

address, select “Use the following IP address” and enter 

the appropriate IP Address, Subnet mask and Gateway. 

Click OK when finished. Now, back in the locate hardware 

dialog, ensure the Control Server device is selected and 

click “Select Hardware Unit” to use this Control Server 

hardware in your Site File. Close the Locate Hardware 

dialog.

The RJ45 connectors labeled “ARC” are only for use 

with the ARC series of remotes.  DO NOT plug the ARC 

connectors on Symetrix products into any other RJ45 

connector. The “ARC” RJ45 connectors on Symetrix 

products can carry up to 24 VDC / 0.75 A (class 2 wiring) 

which can damage Ethernet circuitry.

ARC Pinout

The RJ45 jack distributes power and RS-485 data to one 

or more ARC devices. Uses standard straight-through UTP 

CAT5/6 cabling

!   

Warning! Refer to the RJ45 Warning for compatibility  

    information.

The Symetrix ARC-PSe provides serial control and power 

distribution over standard CAT5/6 cable for systems with more 

than 4 ARCs, or when any number of ARCs are located long 

distances from a Symetrix DSP unit.
