Configuring Amplifier Network Settings; Configuring The Network From The Front Panel - Crown 2/300 Operation Manual

Configuring Amplifier Network Settings

Network settings can be configured from either the CDi DriveCore's front panel or from the NetSetter software application. DHCP is enabled by default,
allowing the CDi DriveCore amplifiers to automatically obtain an IP address when connecting to an Ethernet switch or router with an active DHCP server, or
when using Auto-IP.

Configuring the Network from the Front Panel

1� From the Home screen, press the MENU button.
2� Select the "Network" option from the menu using the ENCODER.
3� Use the ENCODER to select and edit network settings.
4� When done, select "Save" then "Done" at the bottom of the screen for the changes to
take affect.

configuration computer to the same network and use the NetSetter software application (see
"Configuring the Network using NetSetter" on page 23
Available options/parameters:
