The PC-compatible computer used to connect to the Nº53 must
have the following software installed:
• Windows
®
2000 or Windows XP
• Web browser (Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer
®
6.0 or higher
preferred)
Note If DHCP is not active, then the computer must be set up with a static IP
address. Refer to the “Setting Up the Computer” section found later in
this manual for instructions.
Connecting the Cables The Nº53 can be connected to the computer in two ways – through
a router or directly to the computer. Before connecting the cables,
ensure that the computer and the Nº53 are powered off.
To Connect Using a Router:
1. Connect a network cable from the router to the Ethernet port
on the rear panel of the Nº53.
2. Attach a second network cable from the router to the Ethernet
port of the computer.
To Connect Without a Router:
Use a network crossover cable to connect the amplifier directly
to the computer. Different from a standard network cable, the
crossover cable is designed to connect network access ports directly
together without a hub, router, or switch.
Connect the crossover cable between the Ethernet port on the rear
panel of the Nº53 and the Ethernet port of the computer.
