Introduction
Thank you very much for purchasing the Fostex
product.
The Model 8360 is an ether card dedicated for the
D2424/D2424LV digital multitrack recorder.
By installing the 8360 to the recorder, it can be
used as an "FTP (File Transfer Protocol) server".
If you connect the recorder which is equipped with
the ether card to a personal computer using a LAN
cable, you can transfer audio files between the recorder and personal computer over the TCP/IP.
To transfer file data, an appropriate FTP client application must be used.
Installing the ether card
The ether card should be installed into the recorder
at a Fostex service station. Do not try to install the
card by yourself. Ask your local Fostex dealer for
the installation after purchasing the Model 8360.
<Note>
By installing the ether card to the D2424/D2424LV, the
"TCP/IP setting" menu is added to the setup mode on the
recorder.
<Note>
There is the possibility of damaging the hard disk when
transporting the recorder. Before transporting the recorder to our service department for the installation of
the Ether Card, remove the hard disk from the recorder.
Be sure to keep the removed hard disk carefully.
FTP client applications
Currently we confirm that the following FTP client
applications can be used with the Model 8360.
• for Windows: WS-FTP (shareware)
• for Macintosh: Fetch (shareware)
<Note>
We confirm that the Windows FTP Explorer cannot be
used with the Model 8360.

Connecting to a personal computer
There are two types for connecting the recorder to a personal computer using the LAN cable; one to one
connection and LAN connection. The following describes how to make connection for each type.
One to one connection
To connect the recorder to a personal computer on a "one to one" basis, use a "cross cable of category 5 or
higher" for connection between the recorder and a personal computer, as shown below.
To use the ether card as an FTP server, see "TCP/IP setting (recorder's initial setting)" and "Personal computer setting" described later.

Connection to an existing LAN
To connect the recorder to an existing LAN, use a "straight cable of category 5 or higher" for connection
between the recorder and a hub, as shown below.
<Note>
When connecting the recorder to an existing LAN, set the IP address and subnet mask correctly. Otherwise, whole LAN system may have a trouble. Before setting the IP address and subnet mask, consult the
network administrator. To use the ether card as an FTP server, see "TCP/IP setting (recorder's initial
setting)" and "Personal computer setting" described later.
