There is, in the main part of the display, a box for each
port. Where there is a connected digitiser, the box turns
green to indicate that GCF data is being received. The
number of packets received in the last five minutes is
also displayed. Use this to check the connection.

Run Scream! on a computer elsewhere on your network,
and instruct it to receive UDP data from port 1567 of
the DCM (use GCFSEND:B as the setting for
“Command”). Check that the streams are available.

Please refer to the full manual for detailed usage
