Linking The Cabinets (Communication) - Sega Daytona Championship USA Owner's Manual

6-5 LINKING THE CABINETS (COMMUNICATION)

When installing two or more cabinets, it is recommended that they be linked together via a Network cable (supplied)
to encourage multiple play, whereby players race together in the same race. Note: The provided LAN cable will
connect two cabinets only. To connect 3 or more cabinets, a network switch and multiple LAN cables are required.
A network switch is not included in the installation kit but can be purchased through Sega on request.

When powering the machine on for the first time, be sure NOT to have the network
cables connected. Having the network cables connected when powering up for
the first time will cause a network malfunction and incorrect IP addresses will be
assigned.
