—Chapter 2—
Making The Ethernet Connection
This chapter describes the steps that are taking in order to connect the Marquee to an ethernet network
or configuration PC to allow the configuration of the Marquee.
In most cases, the first step in configuring the Marquee is physically connecting the Marquee to what is
known as a configuration PC. A configuration PC can be a laptop or desk-top PC that is equipped with
an ethernet port and has WEB browser software installed. There are many different WEB browsers
available on the market today. Please refer to the documentation for WEB browser that is being used if
it is not clear what is needed to be accomplished.
The Marquee can be connected directly to a PC’s ethernet port or connected to the facility network. It
is recommended that the first time a user connects to the user connects directly to the Marquee and does
not connect to the facility network. By connecting directly, the user has more control over the ethernet
network settings and the need to consult with the IT department or network administrator of the facility.
Note: Prior to connecting to the facility network, it is highly recommended to consult the facility
IT department or the network administrator of the facility.

Making The Ethernet Connection
Quick Setup
Quick Setup
This section is designed for the user who is familiar with connecting devices via ethernet. This section
assumes a direct connection between the ethernet port of a PC and the Ethernet port of the Marquee.
If the user is not familiar with connecting ethernet devices or configuring ethernet Parameters of the PC
it is highly recommended to go to the section Detailed Ethernet Setup section.
Required Equipment
•DataVisor Marquee
•PC with Ethernet port and a Web browser installed
Note: The user must have administrator rights on the PC
•An Ethernet cross cable or a switch with an Ethernet patch cable.
Steps To Connect The Marquee Via Ethernet
These steps use the factory default ethernet parameters that are set in the Marquee.
•IP Address 192.168.1.200
•Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
1. Connect a ethernet cross-over cable between the PC and the Marquee
2. Apply power to the Marquee

3. Power the PC
4. Configure the PC’s ethernet port.
•IP address 192.168.1.100
•SubNet Mask 255.255.255.
Note: Refer to the section Set the PC for Fixed IP Address for detailed instructions.
4. Start the WEB browser application and enter the IP address of the Marquee in the address field.
In the address bar type http://192.168.1.200 then preset the ENTER key
Note: On many browsers the http:// is automatically added to the address so the user
does not need to type it in.
6. At this point the MONITOR page of the Marquee should be displayed in Internet Explorer
7. The user may now access the configuration WEB pages of the Marquee.
Note: Please refer to the section Marquee Configuration Pages for details on the
configuration pages.
If the user has problems accessing the Marquee’s WEB pages, please follow the detailed steps in the
following section.

Detailed Ethernet Setup
Detailed Ethernet Setup
This section describes in detail the steps to establish an ethernet connection to the Marquee in order to
configure it’s operation. This section assumes the user will be using the default ethernet settings
Marquee. If the user changes the default ethernet settings, such as the IP address, the user must use the
new settings in place of the defaults when referenced in this section.
•Default IP address of Marquee 192.168.1.200
•Default SubNet Mask of Marquee 255.255.255.0
•Default Gateway of Marquee 0.0.0.0
This section is for connecting the Marquee directly to the PC. If the user wishes to connect the Marquee
to the facility network, it is highly advised that the network administrator or IT department is involved.
This is suggested so as the Ethernet network parameters of the Marquee can be configured to match the
facility network parameters.
Configuring the PC
The first step in making an Ethernet connection to the Marquee is to configure the PC so as the
Ethernet port of the PC can communicate to the Marquee. After the PC has been powered up follow
these steps to verify the configuration of the PC.
Note: Prior to making changes to the ethernet configuration of the PC the existing
configuration should be documented. The user may be required to revert back to the
existing configuration in order to connect to the facility network.

Set the PC for a Fixed IP Address WINDOWS XP
Many facility networks in use today use what is known as DHCP to allow a server on the
network to assign ethernet parameters to the PCs that are connected to the network. When
connecting directly from the PC to another ethernet device such as the Marquee, the user must
assign the Ethernet parameters of the PC manually.
Step 1
On the PC, click on START followed by CONTROL PANEL.
Note: Depending on the operation system of the PC the user may need to select
SETTINGS in order to access the CONTROL PANEL.
