desired
IP
domain,

then
the
switch
address
will
need
to
be
set
to
the
same
subnet,
usually
192.168.1.1
or
192.168.1.254
are
the
most
common
default
addresses.
4.2 Advanced settings
In
order
to
use
CNDISCO
effectively,
it
will
be
necessary
to
enable
the
configuration
and
advanced
features.
This
will
also
allows
you
to
put
any
version
of
firmware
on
any
hardware‐compatible
CobraNet™
module.
CNDISCO
needs
to
have
the
particular
firmware
version
of
a
device
in
its
firmware
directory
in
order
to
properly
identify
the
device
for
compatible
firmware
upgrades.
Should
the
situation
arise
where
you
know
the
device
is
a
specific
model
but
CNDISCO
says
there
are
no
compatible
firmware
upgrades,
using
the
advanced
feature,
you'll
be
able
to
update
the
firmware
anyway.
How
to
enable
the
advanced
feature:
Open
cndisco.ini
(WinXP)
or
the
config
file
(WinVista/Win7)
the
in
Notepad
Its
usually
in
a
directory
like
this:
C:\Program
Files\Peak
Audio\CobraNet™
Discovery.
Find
the
Configuration
section.
It
usually
looks
something
like
this:
[Configuration]
Adapter
Index=[10]
[10]
Broadcom
NetXtreme
57xx
Gigabit
Controller
Firmware
Location=C:\Program
Files\Peak
Audio\CobraNet™
Discovery\firmware
Start
a
new
line
after
one
of
the
lines
in
that
section
and
type
in
Advanced
Feature=1.
Add
CC_Enable=1
under
Advanced
Feature=1
It
should
look
something
like
this
when
you're
done:
[Configuration]
Adapter
Index=[10]
[10]
Broadcom
NetXtreme
57xx
Gigabit
Controller
Firmware
Location=C:\Program
Files\Peak
Audio\CobraNet™

"Advanced
Feature"
value="0"
/>
to...
