310 Appendix A Installation
Understanding ETCNet
The console is capable of operating with other devices in local area
networks. ETC has two such networks, ETCNet and ETCNet2, and both
operate using Ethernet protocols. None of the Expression-family consoles
are capable of operating directly on ETCNet2. One exception is through
the use of a ETCNet2 DMX Node as a DMX-to-ETCNet2 converter, but
this network configuration will not be discussed in this User Manual.
When operating on ETCNet, any network interface device connected to
the network mimics the output of the console. Your network devices can
be the older-style Remote Interface Unit (RIU) devices or Remote Video
Interface (RVI) devices. Or, they may be ETC’s newest remote interface
devices, including the ETCNet2 DMX Node and the ETCNet2 Video Node.
You can mix and match old and new interface devices in your network.
Only the newer nodes are capable of operating on ETCNet2.
Installing interface devices
To install RIU or RVI devices, follow the instructions given in the
Reference appendix of this manual. To install an ETCNet2 node, see the
separate Installation Guide for that device.
Network wiring
Express consoles are now designed to operate only with twisted pair
network wiring.
121
Connect a twisted pair cable to the RJ45 connector on
the back of the console and run it to a network hub or interface device.
It makes a difference to your console whether you are connected to a hub
or directly to an interface device. When connecting directly, the signals
between the console and the interface device must be swapped on the
twisted pairs. When connecting to a hub, that swapping is taken care of
by the hub. To verify or change this setting, press [Setup] [6] [Enter] [1][2]
[Enter]. Press 1or 0, if necessary, as directed by the screen prompt. Press
[Enter] to complete the operation.
Preparing interface devices
Every device operating on your ETC network must be running the same
system software. If you have a new system, most likely the software
installed in each device is compatible with all the others. But different
versions of software can exist in different devices because of software
upgrades that occurred while the device was being manufactured. You
should make sure.
To verify the software running on your interface devices and upgrade it if
necessary, go to the Remote Unit Upgrade Program display. You reach
this display using the Remote Interface diskette supplied with your
system or in a system software upgrade kit. Follow the procedure given
under Upgrading remote interface devices, page 320.

If using an older console and thinnet, see Using thinnet with older consoles, page
328, for information and instructions.
