S3L Venue Link trouble

- Pro Tools can see the console in Venue link tab in Peripherals after I set up ports correctly
- when I choose it, it shows (inactive)
- S3L Interaction tab shows "not connected"

AVB over the same cable works fine.

I did all troubleshooting steps from the manual multiple times and I could never get it connected.


UPDATE, THE SOLUTION:



The procedure described by Sheldon above solves the problem.

I must say that Venue Link is NOT easy to get hooked up and working. There should be a way with Pro Tools and Venue to make this built in. If you connect an ethernet cable to the 2 of them, it just works. It took us hours to get it to work the first time. Just saying....
