Control 24 Reference Guide12
Making Necessary
Connections
You will need to make the necessary power and
Ethernet connections.
Power Connection
The Control 24 back panel has an IEC standard
AC receptacle. This connector accepts a stan-
dard AC power cable.
Plug one end of a power cord (included with
Control 24) into the Control 24 AC receptacle
and plug the other end into a power source such
as a power strip or wall outlet.
Ethernet Connections
Control 24 communicates with Pro Tools using
Ethernet. This connection uses a standard RJ45,
10Base-T connector.
Included with Control 24, is a “crossover” cable
for systems using Ethernet exclusively for com-
munication between computer and Control 24.
Not included, however, is a standard RJ-45
Ethernet cable which is needed if you want to
connect your Control 24 with an Ethernet hub
to an Ethernet network.
If Ethernet will be used exclusively for Control 24:
1 With Control 24 positioned, connect one end
of the included crossover Ethernet cable to the
Ethernet port on the back panel of Control 24.
2 Connect the other end of the cable to the ap-
propriate Ethernet port on the computer.
To connect Control 24 and your computer with an
Ethernet hub:
1 Locate a standard Ethernet cable, which is not
included with Control 24.
2 If your computer only has one Ethernet port,
you will also need an Ethernet hub.
3 With Control 24 positioned, connect one end
of a standard Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port
on the back panel of Control 24.
4 Connect the other end of the cable to the ap-
propriate Ethernet port on the Ethernet hub or
on the computer in which Pro Tools has been
installed.
Power down your speaker monitor system,
and make sure the levels are all the way
down on your amplifiers before turning
Control 24 on or off. A loud pop can occur
during power cycling which could possibly
damage playback systems.
Ethernet connections should be made when
Control 24 power is off.
If you are using an Ethernet hub, refer to the
documentation that came with it to ensure
that a connection is established in both di-
rections between Control 24 and the com-
puter on which Pro Tools is installed.
