Ethernet Connection ([Network] Connector) - Yamaha DME64N Owner's Manual

Ethernet Connection ([NETWORK] Connector)

Connect the [NETWORK] connector on the rear panel of the DME64N/24N to the network switching hub
via a straight Ethernet cable.
Ethernet connections can be used in the following two ways:
• Connect the computer to the zone master DME64N/24N.
• Connect the zone master DME64N/24N to zone slave DME64N/24N units.
Appropriate IP addresses must be assigned to all devices connected to an Ethernet network. Refer to the Utility
display Net page (page 48 of this document) for IP address setting details.

When connecting a computer to a DME64N/24N via Ethernet, the appropriate DME-N Network driver must be installed on
the computer. Refer to the DME Designer Installation Guide for details on installing the appropriate driver.
A DME64N/24N Ethernet connection falls into the "Class C Network" category. In a class C network, of the
assignable IP addresses "###.###.###.$$$", "###.###.###" is the network address and "$$$" is the host
address. Devices assigned the same network address will function within the same zone. The host address range
is 2 ~ 254. When the host address is "2" the device is the zone master, while host addresses from 3 to 254 are
assigned to zone slaves. Only one zone master can be assigned in any one zone.
Devices in the same zone (devices having the same network address) can be directly connected using cross
cables, or by using straight cables via a switching hub.
Devices in different zones (devices having different network addresses) can be connected via a router or layer-3
compliant switching hub.

A cross cable can be used to directly connect DME64N/24N and/or ICP1 units. In such cases set the Link Mode parameters
in the network settings pages of both units the same way (page 49 of this document).
