Chapter 1: Hardware Connections and MC Client Setup
Schematics and parts are listed for each DAW setup in Appendix A: DAW Parts List
and Schematics.
1.1 Connect the MC
1. Unpack the MC from its packaging and select a place to put it. The MC should
go on a hard flat surface in order to allow proper ventilation. (System 5-MC has
its own frame for the MC and CM408T modules).
NOTE: The MC and CM408T modules require sufficient ventilation space on the bot-
tom. The MC has detachable feet for standalone users without a System 5
frame, but the CM408T modules do not. If you do not use a System 5 frame,
you MUST have at least 1 inch of clearance under the CM408T modules and
MC or damage to the units may occur.
Use Figure 1-1 as a reference to connect the MC to its components.

2. Plug the power supply into the DC In port on the right side as you look at the
rear panel.
Be careful plugging this in as the connector has easily-bent pins. When the pins
are seated, twist the ring on the connector’s side until it locks. Do not turn on
the MC yet; network configuration must be completed first.
WARNING: Attach power supply to the MC BEFORE plugging into AC power or the
unit may be damaged.

1.2 Network Configuration
1.2.1 MC Standalone
Using the RJ-45 Ethernet (included) cables, connect your workstations to the LAN
ports on the Netgear RP614 router. Then connect the MC to one of the other LAN ports
on the Netgear router. Because the Netgear has four LAN ports, you must use an addi-
tional Ethernet switch if you have more than three workstations.
NOTE: You have now created a small local area network comprised of just the MC
and your workstations.
The MC ships with DHCP enabled, allowing it to automatically obtain an IP address.
The Netgear RP614 has a DHCP server and hands out IP addresses to the devices con-
nected to its LAN ports (the MC and your workstations). This allows for easy plug and
play network configuration. For this reason, the Netgear router must be turned on be-
fore the MC and your workstation.
1.2.2 System 5-MC
1. Connect the MC and CM408T modules to LAN ports on the SonicWALL 1260
router.
2. Connect your workstations to LAN ports on the SonicWALL.
The MC ships with DHCP enabled, allowing it to automatically obtain an IP
address. The SonicWALL ships from Euphonix with its DHCP server enabled,
such that it hands out IP addresses to the MC, CM408T modules, and your
workstations. For this reason the SonicWALL must be turned on before the
MC, CM408T modules, and your workstations.
1.3 EuCon Software Installation
Follow these instructions to install the EuCon Software on each workstation:
1. Insert the Euphonix MC Software Installation CD in your workstation’s CD/
DVD drive.
2. In Mac OS X, double-click the CD icon on the desktop, and double-click the
EuConWS package.
The Install program launches. Proceed to Step 4.
3. In Windows, if AutoRun is enabled, the setup program starts from the CD au-
tomatically. If AutoRun is not enabled:

NOTE: When first running the MC Client, the Windows Firewall may ask whether to
block or unblock MC Client and EuCon Discovery from accessing the Internet
or local area network. Because all communication between the MC Client and
the MC occurs through the workstation’s network connection, you must select
Unblock or it will not communicate with the MC.
