In order for HiQnet Audio Architect to communicate with your HiQnet devices as well as your iOS device, your network must be set up properly.  Your Windows computer must have a network adapter connected to a wireless router,  they must be on the same subnet, and you must be connected to at least one HiQnet device.

1. Make sure your computer, wireless router, and HiQnet devices are powered ON.
2. Start Audio Architect.
3. Verify that Audio Architect is communicating with the router and your device(s).

NOTE: If you have difficulty connecting Audio Architect to your network, you may need to adjust your Windows firewall settings.  If you are working on a company computer, and are having trouble connecting to an iOS device with Audio Architect, consult your IT manager.

NOTE: If your network uses statically assigned IP addresses, the iOS device subnet mask must match the control computer subnet mask.
