Manually Configuring The Client - Yamaha MCX-C15 - MusicCAST Network Audio Player Install Manual

Manually configuring the
client
You can manually configure the client to conform
with the settings of an existing network. Manual
client settings are only necessary if you are also
using a manual configuration for the server. In most
cases, Auto Configuration is adequate for using the
MusicCAST system.
When making manual settings, it is not always
necessary to set all of the parameters described in
the following section. The settings you make will
depend on the network to which the client is
connected. However, be sure to set the following:
• Server ID
• IP address for the client (when DHCP is set to
OFF)
*
• Subnet mask
*
The server and client will only function
correctly if they are under the same subnet
(running under one or more hubs).
Before performing Manual Configuration, be sure
to:
• Complete all connections for the client and its
companion components and turn on the client.
• Upgrade the MusicCAST system firmware on
the server.
• Turn on the server.
• Set the client ID for each client connected to the
MusicCAST system on the server. For details,
see the MCX-1000 Owner's Manual, page 113.
• Set the Subnet Mask address on the server. (This
must be the same for both the server and the
client.) For details, see the MCX-1000 Owner's
Manual, page 109.
Note
You must perform the Manual Configuration
procedure if your MusicCAST system uses more
than one server.
