2 IP Address Configuration and Connection
An iTuner is a TCP/IP device connected over Ethernet. As such, the user needs to ensure that all
iTuners, as well as other TCP/IP devices, connected to the system have a unique IP address. This
is accomplished by connecting each individual iTuner to the system one at a time. The user
must then configure each tuner. Furthermore, the computer used must be set to a fixed IP
address. This procedure is described using the HyperTerminal TCP/IP client that is included with
Microsoft Windows (note: any telnet client may be used).
