Configuring IP Parameters
Locating Hardware
Discovery of, and connection to, EDGE 
hardware is done with the Locate Hardware 
dialog found under the Hardware menu or by 
clicking the Locate Hardware icon in the tool 
bar or on a particular EDGE unit itself.
IP Configuration with Composer
The Locate Hardware dialog will scan the 
network and list available units. Select the 
EDGE unit you wish to assign an IP address to and click 
the Properties button. If you wish to assign EDGE a static 
IP address, select “Use the following IP address” and enter 
the appropriate IP Address, Subnet mask and Gateway. 
Click OK when finished. Now, back in the locate hardware 
dialog, ensure the EDGE device is selected and click “Select 
Hardware Unit” to use this EDGE hardware in your Site File. 
Close the Locate Hardware dialog.
IP Configuration with the Front Panel
EDGE IP information can also be edited from the front panel. 
EDGE’s front panel interface starts up in System Mode 
out of the box. Press LEFT or RIGHT until you get to the 
DHCP menu. If DHCP is enabled, press ENTER and then 
UP or DOWN until it reads DISABLED, then press ENTER to 
confirm. Now press RIGHT until you get to the IP Address 
menu. Press ENTER to edit using the UP, DOWN, LEFT 
and RIGHT buttons to change digits and navigate between 
digits. Press ENTER again when finished editing. Repeat as 
necessary for Subnet Mask and Gateway Address.
Note: If the IP Address is changed from the front panel, 
Composer Design unit(s) must be updated to match by right 
clicking on the units and choosing Unit Properties or by 
Locating Hardware as detailed previously.
The RJ45 connectors labeled “ARC” are only for use
with the ARC series of remotes. DO NOT plug the ARC
connectors on Symetrix products into any other RJ45
connector. The “ARC” RJ45 connectors on Symetrix
products can carry up to 24 VDC / 0.75 A (class 2 wiring)
which can damage Ethernet circuitry.
ARC Pinout
The RJ45 jack distributes power and RS-485 data to one 
or more ARC devices. Uses standard straight-through UTP 
CAT5/6 cabling.
