Figure 3-26 Ethernet

The Ethernet cable from the display can connect to a media player/computer, a router (switch), or an Intranet. A network connection enables the use of the Video Over Ethernet software to assign a media player to drive the display. The connection also allows the HP Network Sign Manager program, running on a networked media player/computer, to send command data.

Connect the Ethernet cable (not included) using one of the following connections:

●Computer Direct Connection—Connect the LAN cable to the LAN port on the display and to the LAN port on the media player/computer (1).

●Router—Connect the LAN cable to the LAN port on the display and to a LAN port on the router (2).

●Intranet—Connect the LAN cable to the LAN port on the display and to the Intranet network via an access point (3).
