Appendix A: Setting the IP Address

Most MC Mix users will never have to set a static Internet Protocol (IP) address
but in the rare cases that require it, the MC Mix does allow for it.

Normally the MC Mix uses

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to obtain

its IP address, typically from a router. The MC Mix will revert to link-local addressing
to generate an IP address if a DHCP server is not found on the network, such as
when an MC Mix is connected directly to a computer with an Ethernet cable. Both
of these methods of obtaining IP addresses can be overridden by supplying a
static IP address, which the MC Mix uses in all cases when powered on.

CAUTION: Attempt this only if you have prior experience configuring a network.

To set a static IP address:

1. While holding down the PAGE W and PAGE X keys simultaneously, press

and release the

POWER switch.

Figure A-1 (left) shows the

Use DHCP screen on fader strip 1's channel display

on the MC Mix.

Figure A-1 Use DHCP yes (left); Use DHCP no (right)

2. Turn the knob underneath the display clockwise to change the underlined

value from

yes (default) to no (Figure A-1 right).

The Knob

SEL and ON keys can be used instead of the knob to decrease or

increase the value, respectively.
