Configuring the Extender

You can connect the Extender directly to the PC for configuration.
If the Extender is already installed and connected to external equipment, it is also possible to
configure it through a router. For further instructions, refer to the topic 'Configuration through a
router' on page 11.
Tip
To ensure optimal performance, use a dedicated network for all Pronto communication. This
makes the Pronto Network independent of other networks and changes in network settings.
