Chapter 6: Setting IP Addresses

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

does allow for it.

Normally Artist Mix uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to obtain its IP address, typically from a router. Artist

Mix reverts to link-local addressing to generate an IP address if a DHCP server is not found on the network, such as when an

Artist 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 Artist Mix uses in all cases when powered on.

To set a static IP address:

1 While holding down the left-most two Soft Keys simultaneously, press and release the POWER switch. Continue to hold the Soft

Keys down until the display lights.

2 Press the left-most ON and SEL buttons simultaneously (or press the left-most PAN knob).

3 Press the <PAGE> keys simultaneously to move the cursor to the next screen, in this case the first field of the IP Address screen.

Press the <Page or PAGE> keys to cycle the cursor back to a previous field or screen to change a parameter to a different value.

To change the value for the Subnet Mask or IP Address, place the cursor under the current value and press the left-most SEL and

ON keys (or press the left-most PAN knob).

4 Press <Page or PAGE> to scroll through the fields of the IP Address.

5 Press the left-most SEL and ON keys (or press the left-most PAN knob) to set the second field of the IP address.

6 To change the value for the Subnet Mask or IP Address, place the cursor under the current value and press the left-most SEL and

ON keys (or press the left-most PAN knob).

7 Repeat the previous steps to set the remaining IP Address fields.

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

Use DHCP yes (left); Use DHCP no (right)
