your iDP network, all functions might not work as intended.

Always connect the Cat-5 plug on the cable enclosed to the TC LINK found on the Precision speakers. 
The serial plug should be connected to your computer - either to the Serial port or 
an USB port. Read more below.

	4.1. Connection - to Serial Port

	The iDP network can be connected to a free Serial Port with the cable enclosed.
