Installation

Subsonus Tools does not need to be installed and can be run from any directory by double clicking on it. Subsonus Tools requires a recent version of Java, available at http://www.java.com. On some systems to open the program it may be necessary to right click and select open with → Java Runtime Environment.

Troubleshooting

If the application will not start, the most common reason is that you have 32-bit Java installed on a 64-bit operating system. Uninstall Java and reinstall the 64-bit version.

Please contact support@advancednavigation.com if you encounter any issues.

Device Discovery

Device discovery allows network discovery and reconfiguration of devices on the local network regardless of network settings.

List of discovered network Advanced Navigation products

Discovery Connection

Discovery operates by sending packets via multi-cast through a physical network connection. It is recommended that a physical connection is used as many WiFi connections will not forward multi-cast packets. Select the appropriate interface from the list.

Set to DHCP

Once discovered devices on uncontactable network addresses can be reset to DHCP by pressing the “Set to DHCP” button for that device.
