USB Port
When the Fx4 has booted, connect it to your PC using the USB cable provided. The Fx4 unit is a plug and play device, Wall
Designer will detect it when the layouts are configured.
The Fx4 can also be configured via a Network, see Step 6.
Step 5 - Configure Via a Network
The Fx4 has dual ethernet ports to allow users to add the device to their network. Only one Fx4 in any chain requires connection
to the physical LAN as ethernet loop through is supported on the second LAN Port, meaning multiple devices can be
connected.
Dual Ethernet Ports
Connect the Fx4 to a network using the top LAN connector then open Wall Designer and create your display layout. At the point
where you associate the virtual device with a physical device the list will display all Fx4’s currently connected to the network
either directly or daisy chained.
Click on the virtual device to display its properties, the Device Properties can be changed in the same way as if connecting via
USB. Once any changes have been made click on Apply Settings to save.
See the Fx4 User Guide for information regarding network settings.
