This instruction shows how to enable or disable the CAVS Karaoke player to have a static IP address in a local network.
The setting is as follows:
• CAVS Karaoke player connects to a wireless router, using a LAN cable or Wi-Fi.
• The wireless router assigns an IP address to the CAVS Karaoke player.
• Customers connect the E-Songbooks such as phones or tablets to the same wireless router. Then they input the IP address of the CAVS Karaoke player to connect to CAVS Karaoke player and select songs.
When the CAVS Karaoke player has the same IP address each time it is turned on, the customers can connect their E-Songbooks without inputting a new IP address each time. However, powering off the wireless router or CAVS Karaoke player overnight can change the IP address. This is when you may wish to set the CAVS Karaoke player to have a static IP address across power cycle.
Enabling to have a static IP address assumes that the wireless router and CAVS Karaoke player stay the same in the setting. But when there is a need to change the router, such as to connect to Internet using a different router, the setting to have the static IP address in CAVS Karaoke player can block the connection to a new router. This is when you may wish to disable the setting for a static IP address in the CAVS karaoke player.

A. Enable a static IP address in local network
