DHCP
If DHCP is selected, then the RMC-1 will obtain all network setup parameters from your local
DHCP Server. If you have a cable modem or router, then it probably also provides a DHCP Server
for your home network. If your network doesn't have a DHCP server, or you wish to set up the
network configuration of your RMC-1 manually, then disabling the DHCP check box will allow you
to set each parameter manually.
Note: Most users will find DHCP the best choice. If you prefer to configure your RMC-1 network
parameters manually, please consult your network service provider or local computer expert
about the appropriate addresses and subnet mask to enter.
Note: If you disable DHCP in the RMC-1's configuration after the RMC-1 has obtained network
settings via DHCP, the settings already obtained will NOT be cleared. This can be used as a
handy shortcut for manually configuring the network settings in your RMC-1; simply allow the
RMC-1 to fill in all the network settings via DHCP, then disable DHCP and manually modify only
the settings you wish to change.

The Setup Network Menu
allows you to configure
various network parameters
for the RMC-1.
Note: The RMC-1's Ethernet
connection is used to
connect the RMC-1 to the
Internet via your home
network. An Internet
connection is required in
order to configure DIrac
Live automatic room
correction, and to allow
Ethernet-based or Internet-
based remote control
apps to connect to the
RMC-1. Once Dirac Live
is configured, the RMC-1
does NOT need to remain
connected to the Internet
- or your local network - to
operate.
