Horizon Starter Manual 1-11
Setting Up the Imager
Simple Network with Ethernet Crossover Cable
In addition to the physical cabling connection, you must define an
IP (Internet Protocol) address for the imager.
Specifying the Imager’s IP Address
The required IP address uniquely identifies the imager on the
network.
Determining an IP Address
Make sure that device IP addresses within this network are unique.
NOTE:
If devices on this network
do
have to communicate with devices on other networks,
it is part of a complex network. For more information about configuring the Horizon imager
in a complex network, refer to the
Horizon Imager Technical Manual

192.168.1.201
to an image viewing workstation on the network
