Nº500H Series Power Amplifier
The PC-compatible computer used to connect to the Nº500H series 
must have the following software installed:
•  Windows
®
 2000 or Windows XP
®
•   Web browser (Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer
®
 6.0 or higher 
preferred)
If DHCP is not active, the computer must be set up with a Static IP 
address. Refer to the “Setting Up the Computer” procedure found later 
in this section for instructions.
The Nº500H series can be connected to the computer in two  
ways – through a router or directly to the computer. Before 
connecting the cables, ensure that the computer and the amplifier 
are powered down.
To Connect Using a Router:
1.   Connect a network cable from the router to the Ethernet port 
on the rear panel of the amplifier.
2.   Attach a second network cable from the router to the Ethernet 
port of the computer.
To Connect Without a Router:
Use a 
network crossover cable to connect the amplifier directly 
to the computer. Different from a standard network cable, the 
crossover cable is designed to connect network access ports directly 
together without a hub, router, or switch.
Connect the crossover cable from the Ethernet port on the rear 
panel of the amplifier to the Ethernet port of the computer.
