14.2 Connecting to a simulator with ACDI
ACDI is Avolites' Application for Interfacing Consoles and Simulators
with lighting software such as Visualiser, Capture or Show designer.
14.2.1 ACDI
The network link connection can be made through either a crossover
cable, or through a network hub.
For this example, both computers are connected together via a
crossover cable.
First, we will set up the Network setting for both computers. It is
important that both computers use an IP address in the same range
(2.0.0.x in this example) and have the same subnet mask, or they
won’t be able to communicate.
On the console, set the address to 2.x.x.x as described in section
14.1.1 at the start of this chapter. If you need to set a custom
address to match the visualiser PC you can use Control Panel to do
this.
On the computer running the Visualiser:
1> Click Start, Control panel, Network connections.
2> Right click on the connection you wish to use.
3> Click Properties.
4> In the connection properties window select TCP/IP and click
Properties.
5> Set the PC network adapter to a free address on the network in
the range 2.0.0.x.
6> Set the subnet mask to 255.0.0.0.
7> Click OK.
