Digital Cinema Dual System
7-4. Settings
To control the 4D system via the LTC output or network automation cue, the server must be properly
configured.
7-4-1. Network
The server can communicate with the 4D system network port by using the CTRL port or DATA port on
the rear of the server.
If the DATA port of server is available, (IP address of DATA port is other than 0.0.0.0), it is used to com-
municate with 4D system. To communicate with 4D system, it is required to design the theater network
and configure the network. When using the DATA port of server, it must be in a different network segment
from that of the CTRL port. Usually, the theater network is configured so that the 4D port and CTRL port
(or DATA port, if it is used) of server are in the same subnet.
