Setting Up Your Network

The SCS uses IP addresses to uniquely identify the SCS and attached devices.
The SCS supports both Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and
static IP addressing. Make sure that an IP address is reserved for each SCS and
that each IP address remains static while the SCS is connected to the network.
Keyboards
A USB keyboard and mouse can be connected to the analog ports of the SCS.
NOTE: The SCS also supports the use of multiple keyboards and multiple mice on the
analog port. The use of more than one input device simultaneously, however, may
produce unpredictable results.
