GUIDELINE FOR NETWORK SETUP CONNECTION
This guideline is applicable to PC, MAC or smartphone control devices. Adapt the guidelines according to your

1 Use an Ethernet cable (not supplied) to connect CI 8-120’s LAN port to your Wired network or router.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• For wired connection to be established, ensure that a broadband router that supports Ethernet is setup and
available.
• Ensure that CI 8-120 and the control device (PC, Mac or smartphone device) are connected to the same network.
• Note the MAC ID listed below the rear panel LAN port as this information is needed when you identify the CI
8-120 from your network.
2 Power up your CI 8-120. The CI 8-120 will not communicate with the network when in Eco standby mode.

immediately followed by the last six digits in the MAC (Machine Access Control) address (example: NAD CI
8-120 DSP_123456). Note also the corresponding IP address assigned by the network.
4 Type the IP address into your control device’s web browser to access your CI 8-120’s User Interface (UI).
5 Congure your CI 8-120’s Identication, Input/Output, DSP and Settings parameters via User Interface.
FIRMWARE UPGRADE PROCEDURE
1 Upon gaining access to your CI 8-120’s User Interface, check immediately for any rmware update by selecting
