Connecting Multiple Monitors - Sony SRM-L560 Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting Multiple Monitors

Up to 32 monitors can be controlled with the PC.
Notes
• The PC cannot control monitors in another subnet mask.
For how to set the subnet mask, consult your system
administrator.
• When you are using the monitors for the first time after
purchasing, the IP addresses of the monitors may
overlap between monitors. Connect the monitors to a PC
according to the procedure in "Connecting a Monitor"
(page 31) then change an IP address of each monitor
referring to "Configuring the Network" (page 34).
