The following illustrations show various ways in which DF-1710s can be administered via ethernet. Figure 1
shows the simplest configuration. A single computer is connected directly to a DF-1710 by an ethernet
crossover
cable. Files generated on the PC are sent to the DF-1710 at its default IP address, using FTP or SMB
networking. Media to be played resides on the DF-1710’s internal hard drive. Once the media and script file
have been transferred the network connection can be removed or left in place as desired.

Figure 2 shows a simple LAN setup with one DF-1710. This is almost the same as the direct configuration of
Figure 1, but since a hub is present standard ethernet cables are used instead of crossover cables. If a DHCP
server is present the DF-1710 will get its IP address from it, otherwise it will use its default IP address.
