Connect using an external router or network
1)
Connect the CQ to the external router or network as a client, using a
network cable connected to the network port. Follow instructions on any
router or access point as if the CQ were a computer (e.g. connect to a LAN
port).
2)
Navigate to
CONFIG
/
CONTROL & NETWORK
/
Network
3)
Switch
Enabled Network
to
Ethernet
(CQ-18T, CQ-20B)
4)
Setup the network. It is recommended that IP Mode is set to Automatic, to
allow automatic address assignment via DHCP where possible. Setting IP
Mode to Manual should only be required where a DHCP host is not
available, or for setups where an IT or networking team needs to allow
access.
When IP Mode is set to Automatic and no IP address is provided to the CQ, it will auto
assign itself an address. This is noted by a (*) appearing after the address in the
network config and system information screens.
If IP Mode is set to Manual and the change is applied before editing the address,
gateway and subnet, the defaults can be found in the
section of this guide.
5)
Connect a device to the same router, access point or network.
6)
Run CQ-MixPad or CQ4You and connect to the CQ from the Choose Unit
list.
