CHANGING THE PORT#:
require that the port number of the projector be changed from its default of 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 well known
applications.
SUBNET MASK AND DEFAULT GATEWAY:
automatically assigned when DHCP is enabled. If a static IP is being used, it must be
assigned before the subnet mask. The Default Gateway is an optional router device
used to send and receive data outside the subnet.

and Advanced Control, System Configuration – Communication for additional
information about ArtNet settings.
By default, communications originating from one type of serial controller—RS232
vs. RS422 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 RS422 controller, for example, it will communicate only with the
projector to which it is connected unless you change this setting to either "RS232 and
RS422 Joined" or "All Joined" (Figure 2.36).

Figure 2.36. Keeping Communications Separate (default)
To relay all messages to all ports—RS232, RS422, 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-RS232 controller with the RS232
linking available between these projectors. For example, you may want to use both an
RS422-compatible controller and an Ethernet-connected PC for working with a
network of projectors linked via their RS232 in/out ports (Figure 2.37).
