    Configuration System Tab, Setup Subsection:  Local IP Address: This is the IP address assigned to the ExpandOR. In the factory default DHCP mode the IP address is automatically assigned by the DHCP server. Note: To ensure the IP addresses are not changed by the network, it is recommended that every ExpandOR be configured with a static IP address, and following that configuration, we recommend that a label with the assigned IP address be applied to the unit.

  • Page 40: Frequently Asked Questions

     What should I do if a DHCP server is not available on my network and I need to configure the ExpandOR? The ExpandOR defaults to DHCP mode, so you will need to setup a small network with a simple router that has DHCP to setup the ExpandOR with a static IP address before connecting it to the network where it will be used.
  • Page 41 VGA signals and analog DVI signals are not supported. All inputs must be digital DVI.  I changed the name of my ExpandOR - why doesn’t the CruzOR show the old name of the ExpandOR? This is a known limitation that will be fixed in a future version.
