is enabled, your unit’s IP address, Subnet, DNS Server, and Gateway are supplied by the
router. Enabled is the factory default.
•
Disabling, pressing
DONE
, then re-enabling and pressing
DONE
will ask your
system’s router to reset PDM’s IP address. It may take a few moments before a
new address is registered.
•
Depending on your network’s router, after you enable and confirm a change to
DHCP, you may need to power cycle PDM to get an address.
•
PDM responds to Pings across your network. You can use this to determine if
an address is valid and the network is working properly.
Fields in the following menus “roll over” between their limits of 0 and 255. If the
0
is
showing, press
Î
to jump to
255
; if
255
is showing, press

.
These first four menu options appear only if DHCP is
Disabled
. Otherwise, the
information is supplied automatically by your router.
IP Address
When manually setting network addresses, use
Ò
and
‰
to change fields;
¨
or
Î
to set values.
Subnet mask
In most cases, this should be set to
255.255.255.0
.
DNS Server
DNS stands for “Domain Name Server”. This number
is supplied by your Internet Service Provider [ISP] or IT department.
Just about every modern computer, including PDM, uses one of these
servers to access the Internet.

While broadcast engineers are becoming more and more net-savvy, you may need to consult with your
station’s IT manager about appropriate settings for your data network.
2
We recommend you make these settings from PDM’s front panel, rather than using its GUI from a re-
mote network computer, so you don’t accidently change something that’ll break the connection. Nu-
meric IP addresses should be set only from the front panel.
