13. System confi gration tutorial
This section will describe how to get started with associated software and set up a basic system for operation.
13.1. Network setup
13.1.1. Network connections/topology
Each frame has two network ports; a primary and a secondary. See the below diagram for a typical network
topology using the primary ports.
By default, the secondary ports are con gured in dual redundancy mode to support a second redundant network.
The alternate con guration for the two ports is a switch mode which allows daisy–chaining devices in a single
network. Daisy chain mode is not recommended for more than a few devices, and for not more than two if running
Dante audio along with control data.
NOTE: If using Dante audio in the network, the audio traf c needs to be ltered from reaching the
wireless links.
13.1.2. Network confi guration
Frames are con gured by default to obtain IP addresses automatically. The frame will assign itself an IP address
in the link local range (169.254.1.0 through 169.254.254.255). If a computer is con gured the same way
(which should be default on modern operating systems), it will reside in the same subnet as the devices and
communication can be established. Alternate con gurations would be DHCP for a managed network or xed IP.
To connect to the secondary network in dual redundancy mode the computer shall be con gured with an IP
address in the 172.31.0.0 – 172.31.255.255.
