Separating Networks; Communicating To All Ports - Christie RPMX-D132U User Manual

Setting the Projectors's IP Address
Factory default is DHCP enabled. The projector's IP address and port appear in the Status menu as well as the
Ethernet Settings submenu.
A static IP address must be defined in projector memory—enter the new address in the Ethernet Settings
submenu, or send to the projector via a serial command. The IP address will be in effect until it is changed
again, or until the DHCP checkbox is re-enabled for use with a DHCP server on the network.
Changing the Port Number
On some Ethernet networks, you may be required to change the firewall restrictions from the default value
(3002). If so, enter a new port number in the Ethernet Settings menu or include the new port# in an XIP serial
command sent to the projector. It is highly recommended not to use a port# below 1024, as these ports are
typically reserved for and used by common network applications.
Subnet Mask and Default Gateway
The Subnet Mask and Default Gateway are automatically assigned when DHCP is enabled. If a static IP is
used, these must be assigned. The Default Gateway is an optional router device used to send and receive data
outside the subnet. The address is provided by the system administrator.

2.4.6 Separating Networks

By default, communications originating from one type of serial controller—RS-232 vs. RS-422 vs. Ethernet—
stay on the corresponding network path. A "Separate" setting indicates this separation for "Network Routing"
in the Communications menu. If you are using an RS-422 controller, for example, it will communicate only
with the projector to which it is connected unless you change this setting to either "RS-232 and RS-422
Joined" or "All Joined".

2.4.7 Communicating to All Ports

To relay all messages to all ports—RS-232, RS-422, and Ethernet—set the "Network Routing" option in the
Communications menu for each projector to "All Joined". This configuration is useful if you are using a non-
RS-232 controller with the RS-232 linking available between these projectors. For example, you may want to
use both an RS-422-compatible controller and an Ethernet-connected PC for working with a network of
projectors linked via their RS-232 in/out ports.
