• DHCP – turns the DHCP capability on or off. When activated,
DHCP assigns a unique IP address to the Nº53. The factory
default value is On. We recommend leaving DHCP set to On.
Connecting With
DHCP
(Recommended)
Use this procedure if you are using a router with DHCP active to
connect to the amplifier. Otherwise, skip to the next procedure.
1. Connect the amplifier to the router, as described in the earlier
“Connecting the Cables” procedure. Make sure that everything
is powered off before making cable connections.
2. Turn on the PC and router. Verify that the router has DHCP
active.
3. Press the Power button on the amplifier.
4. On the computer, open the Internet Explorer Web browser.
5. Type “NO53_xxxxxx” on the address line (URL). The “x”
characters stand for the last six characters of the unique MAC
address for that amplifier.
6. Press Enter.
If Internet Explorer is unable to find the amplifier, then you
must find the IP address that was assigned to the amplifier by
the router. If required, refer to your router’s owner’s manual for
further details. Repeat this step using the IP address for the
amplifier that was assigned by the router.
7. The Home tab of the amplifier internal Web page is now
displayed. The tab is in red text to indicate that it’s the current
page.
The network connection is now complete.
Setting Up the
Computer
If DHCP is not used, then the computer must be set up too. Use this
procedure to set up the computer, then continue to the next
procedure to connect to the amplifier. For the computer to find the
amplifier, the LAN (Local Area Network) and TCP/IP (Internet
Protocol) settings of the computer must be set up. The parameter
setups vary slightly depending upon the operating system of the
computer. Refer to the procedure below that matches the operating
system on your computer.
Note Due to your preference settings in the Windows operating system, the
names and order of the dialog boxes may vary slightly from these
instructions.
