For the Kaleido-X unit to join a TCP/IP network, it must be configured with an IP address, a
network mask, a gateway, and a system name. In addition, a client PC must be configured

configure the Kaleido-RCP2 unit, and any Audio Bridge Terminal unit you may have
ordered.

The Kaleido-X is shipped with the following default settings:
