Configuring IP Parameters

Locating Hardware

Discovery of, and connection to, Solus NX 
4x4, 8x8, and 16x8 hardware is done with 
the Locate Hardware dialog found under the 
Hardware menu or by clicking the Locate 
Hardware icon in the tool bar or on a particular 
Solus NX 4x4, 8x8, and 16x8 unit itself.

IP Configuration with Composer

The Locate Hardware dialog will scan the 

network and list available units. Select the Solus NX 4x4, 8x8, 
or 16x8 unit you wish to assign an IP address to and click 
the Properties button. If you wish to assign Solus NX 4x4, 
8x8, or 16x8 a static IP address, select “Use the following 
IP address” and enter the appropriate IP Address, Subnet 
mask and Gateway. Click OK when finished. Now, back in 
the locate hardware dialog, ensure the Solus NX 4x4, 8x8, 
or 16x8 device is selected and click “Select Hardware Unit” 
to use this Solus NX 4x4, 8x8, or 16x8 hardware in your Site 
File. Close the Locate Hardware dialog.

The RJ45 connectors labeled “ARC” are only for use 

with the ARC series of remotes.  DO NOT plug the ARC 

connectors on Symetrix products into any other RJ45 

connector. The “ARC” RJ45 connectors on Symetrix 

products can carry up to 24 VDC / 0.75 A (class 2 wiring) 

which can damage Ethernet circuitry.

ARC Pinout

The RJ45 jack distributes power and RS-485 data to one 
or more ARC devices. Uses standard straight-through UTP 
CAT5/6 cabling.

!

    Warning! Refer to the RJ45 Warning for compatibility  

     information.
The Symetrix ARC-PSe provides serial control and power 

distribution over standard CAT5/6 cable for systems with 

more than 4 ARCs, or, when any number of ARCs are 

located long distances from a Symetrix DSP unit.
