SOUND4 Standalone Ethernet Setup downloads (Software tools)
This tool is dedicated to In-Box Products, especially for those that don't allow Admin Ethernet IP setup from the front panel (e.g., BIG VOICE²). The software performs an automatic network discovery to find connected SOUND4 In-Box products and enables Admin Ethernet IP configuration.
Important: This software also installs WinPcap, a required third-party application.
