Chapter 3. Network Configuration
The CY920 module can be configured using Ethernet or Wi-Fi mode. To check whether
a particular SKU can support Ethernet or Wi-Fi mode, refer to the Ordering Guide sec-
tion in the “CY920 Network Media Module Data Sheet” (DS60001270).
3.1 CONFIGURING CY920 IN ETHERNET MODE
Some of the CY920 module SKUs have provision for Ethernet mode. To connect the
CY920 module to Ethernet mode, the set up needs an AP with Dynamic Host Control
Protocol (DHCP) support. You must connect the CE2 board to the AP using an Ethernet
cable. Figure 1-4 shows the Ethernet cable is connected to the CE2 board.
To set up the CY920 module in Ethernet mode, perform the following steps:
1. Set up the CE2 board, see 2.1 “Connecting CY920 Module, CE2 Board, and
Interconnect Card”.
2. Power on the CY920 module and wait till the “
sds://” shell command to display,
or press <Enter> until the shell command prompt appears.
3. Configure the CnE value “
CurrentMode” to “wired”, which is available on the
following path “
cne/Application/NetIF”, see Example 3-1.
EXAMPLE 3-1: SHELL COMMAND
4. Reboot the CY920 module and wait for the “
sds://” shell command to display
on the window.
5. Run the “
netcfg” command to confirm whether the CY920 module is connected
to the network or not.
6. The acquired IP address of the Digital Media Player (DMP) device will be
displayed on the window, see Figure 3-1.
