Ethernet Cable Installation
Instruments manufactured by Datacolor can now be connected to an Ethernet port on a
desktop system. See Appendix, Ethernet Connection Considerations, before you attempt
to connect to an Ethernet port.
You can connect the instrument to the computer using either a serial cable, Ethernet cable,
or a USB cable. Select one of them. This section provides instructions for using the
Ethernet cable.
NOTE
Do not connect all interface cables to the unit at the same time.
An Ethernet cable is shown below:
1. Connect either end of the Ethernet cable to the connector on the rear panel of
the instrument.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to an Ethernet LAN port.
3. Observe the LCD Status Display and note the IP address of the instrument. You
will need to enter this information into the appropriate software (e.g. TOOLS).
Refer to the program User’s Guide for information regarding where to enter the
IP address.
See the Appendix for additional Ethernet Connection Considerations.
