Connections
Ki Pro can be networked directly to a MacBook Pro or Mac using a single Ethernet cable
(straight or cross-over)—or it can be connected to a local area network (LAN). If wireless
networking is desired, Ki Pro can also be controlled via an iPhone or laptop browser using
802.11b/g and communicating through a wireless access point (AirPort).
In hard-wired configurations, Ki Pro connects via its 10/100/1000 Base-TX Ethernet
connector. In a direct connection, you simply connect the Ki Pro to an Ethernet-equipped
computer having a browser using a Cat-5 cable. If connecting via a LAN, you then
connect the Ki Pro’s Ethernet connector to a hub or switch on the LAN. A LAN is a shared
network that includes other Ethernet devices all attached via a hub or digital switch.
LANs may be divided into zones separated by software or hardware routers.
