Connect the devices and your computer as shown in the configuration diagram.
Connect the device to the computer using its [Dante] connector for a Dante-equipped unit
or its NETWORK connector for an MCP1 and YDIF-equipped unit. Normally you will
connect the devices to the computer via a network switch. Only in the case of Dante-
equipped models when using a daisy-chain connection, you will connect the units to the
computer in a daisy-chain. If there is only one MTX/MRX unit, you can also connect the
computer directly to the MTX/MRX. If connecting the MCP1 and PGM1, you will need
an IEEE802.3af compliant PoE network switch or PoE injector. For details, refer to the
respective installation manual.
Turn on the power of the device.
In the MCP1’s settings page, verify that IP Setting is set to [UNIT ID], and set the
UNIT ID.
Select the network card and specify the IP address of the computer.
To select the network card, use the “Network Setup” dialog box which you can access from
the [System] menu. Set the network card’s IP address to 192.168.0.x (x is a number other
than 0, 255, or the unit’s UNIT ID) and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. The IP address
setting for the network card is made in Control Panel “Network Connections.” You can
access “Network Connections” by clicking the [Open Network Connections] button in the
“Network Setup” dialog box.
When connections have been established between the computer and the devices, the
device icons shown in the Project screen will change.
