Axia element v.2.0 Installation & User Manual page 15

IP Address Configuration
Using your IP Assignment Worksheet, you'll
now choose an IP address for both your Element and
StudioEngine. You must make sure that IP addresses for
both Engine and Surface are in the same IP network, and
are both valid Unicast addresses. For example:
» 192.168.0.10: Element
» 192.168.0.11: Engine
Both addresses belong to 192.168.0.x IP network,
and so will work for our application.
Note: "Gateway" settings on Livewire equip-
ment are optional. They may be left blank un-
less you intend to access the StudioEngine's
configuration utility remotely, from outside your
network. Should you desire to do so, enter the
IP address of your master router (the one with
external network connections) whenever you're
given the option to enter a gateway IP address.
Note: Element v2.x software supports redun-
dant NTP servers. Use the second field in the IP
Address Book to enter the address of a backup
server.
Once you've determined the IP addresses you'll as-
sign, turn on the Element power supply and the attached
VGA monitor.
