2. Click Ethernet or Front Panel tabs to view/change settings.

Ethernet

The Ethernet tab of the window displays the current status of the Ethernet network, and offers a method for auto-
configuration in the event there is a problem.

The Vx76 control network is designed to work on the 10.67.x.x subnet. One of the computer's built-in ports should be
configured to an address in this subnet. If the software cannot find an active port set to that subnet, then an error
message will be displayed on the front panel, and the Ethernet dialog will be displayed. If the problem is the port
configuration, the Auto-Configure button will modify the network settings accordingly. If this does not work, check the
physical connections to the back of the computer, or replace the Ethernet/USB cable to the front panel.

Indicates that the network
device configuration is valid.

Indicates that there is an
active link on the port.

Indicates that system traffic
has been seen on the port.

Sets the Ethernet port to the
recommended configuration
for the type of panel detected.
