DM-TX-200
The DM-TX-200 connects to PC via Ethernet:
1. Enter the IP address, IP mask and default router of the DM-TX-200 via the
Crestron Toolbox (
Functions | Ethernet Addressing
); otherwise enable
DHCP.
2. Confirm Ethernet connections between DM-TX-200 and PC. If connecting
through a hub or router, use CAT5 straight through cables with 8-pin RJ-45
connectors. Alternatively, use a CAT5 crossover cable to connect the two
LAN
ports directly without using a hub or router.

DM-TX-200 with the DM-TX-200’s TCP/IP communication parameters.
4. Display the “System Info” window (click the
icon) and select the
DM-TX-200 entry.
