Changing Network Settings
Accessing your Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G over a network is the easiest way to manage
multiple units. You can do this using Blackmagic Audio Monitor Setup. By default, your
Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G is configured to automatically acquire a network address,
making it easy to immediately select it from the setup utility home screen.
If you are having trouble finding a Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G on your network, or you have
previously set it to use a static address incompatible with your current network, you may need
to change its network settings locally. You can do this via USB.
Changing Network Settings via USB
To change network settings via USB, connect your Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G to a
computer running the Blackmagic Audio Monitor Setup utility with a USB cable. You can find
your Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G’s USB connector on its rear panel. Once connected, select
your Audio Monitor 12G from the Blackmagic Audio Monitor Setup utility home screen, and
navigate to the ‘configure’ tab. Here you can toggle between dynamic and static network
addresses. If you select a static IP, you can manually configure the address, subnet mask,
and gateway.
