Instruction manual

• Type: Select the type of network conﬁguration.

− Manual: Select when the MMX is using a static IP address for network connection, and set up LAN parameters

manually.

− DHCP: Select when the MMX is networked via DHCP (Dynamic Host Conﬁguration Protocol). Click the OK button,

and a temporary IP address is automatically assigned to the MMX. The MMX periodically will be issued a new IP

address automatically.

• DNS Server: Enter the IP address of the DNS server. If you set up the DNS server, the domain name of the server

can be used instead of the IP address when the DVRNS, time and SMTP servers are set up. Ask your Internet

service provider for the IP Address of the DNS Server.

NOTES:

• Ask your network provider for details about the network connection type and connection information for

the MMX.

• If the MMX is conﬁgured for a DHCP network, it is best to use the DVRNS function because the MMX’s IP

address might change frequently. Ask your Internet service provider for information about the IP Address

of the DNS Server.

Spot MMXs

When a spot MMX is connected to the master MMX and slave MMXs, you have to connect to a spot MMX and register

the spot MMX on the master MMX. Run the INIT program, select a spot MMX and click the Setup icon

on the

Main screen. You can also display the Setup menu by selecting a desired spot MMX and clicking the right mouse

button on the Main screen. Select Remote Setup from the Setup menu, and the Remote Setup screen appears.

• Type: Select the type of network conﬁguration and set up the network information of the spot MMX.

• DNS Server: Enter the IP address of the DNS server set during the IP Address setup of the Master MMX. If you set

up the DNS server, the domain name of the server can be used instead of the IP address when the DVRNS server is

set up.

• Master MMX IP: Enter the IP address of the master MMX that the spot MMX is connected. You can enter the name

instead of the IP address by using the DVR Name Service function when checking the Use DVR Name Service box

if the master MMX uses the DVR Name Service function.
