Chapter 4: MC Preference Settings 25
Network
The Network pane in the MC preferences section lets you customize the addressing used for multicasting data used by the
EUCON system.
Although most systems will never need to use this feature, special care should be taken if it is determined that custom network
settings are to be used. Please consult with your IT department to ensure proper addressing and port settings are used for your
place of operation.
To set custom multicasting settings:
1 Connect to all the workstations and modules you want to change settings for. Be aware of the following:
• Only workstations assigned to the four workstation switches will be affected by this change.
• Only CM408T modules “Assigned to this MC” will be affected by this change
2 Go to Menu > Prefs > Network tab.
3 Touch the Use Custom Settings button (off by default).
4 Make changes to your settings.
Generally, you will want to choose an address from the following ranges based on direction from your IT department (which they
are responsible for allocating per subnet and site). (Information taken from Stevens, Section 21.2 (pg 553).
5 Go to the Setup > Modules page on the MC and “remove” all the attached CM408T modules.
6 Restart all CM408T modules by pressing the RESET button located on the bottom front of the units.
7 Restart the MC by doing the following:
•Go to Euphonix Menu > Shutdown.
•Touch Restart.
