3. Setting up the System 79
The two consoles will now mirror each other in terms of chosen master, current page, and
playback state.
3.3.8 More than One Show on the Network
If you want to run more than one show on the same network, you need to choose a port
number for each show. The default port number is 6600, so the second show could be on
6601, the third on 6602, and so on. You need to assign the port number of each console
system and network device according to the show it is used with.
3.3.9 Connecting to an Existing Network
You can connect the console to an existing Ethernet network if desired. Contact the
administrator of the network to obtain the correct network settings.
Important: You should disable the DHCP server of the console before connecting to an
existing computer network, otherwise it may interfere with the correct operation of the
network.
3.3.10 Network File Sharing
You can connect to drives on a local network or remote computer to transfer show files. Only
compressed show file backup (.tar.gz or .shw) files can be transferred with Network File
Sharing.
