The MRC-6430 is defaulted to DHCP and will get an IP address from the LAN router, Touchscreens and mobile devices
will essentially “Plug and Play” when communicating through the same LAN that the MRC-6430 is connected to.
§
Most PoE network switches have a number of ports for power insertion and some ports with no power insertion. Make
sure that the MRC-6430 is plugged into a non-powered port and that the nKP7 is plugged into a powered port.
§
The nTP7 can also be plugged into a powered port, OR it can be powered by an external power supply.
§
Most IP controllable sources require that they be changed from DHCP to a static IP address Refer to the source’s
owners manual for proper static IP address settings.
