    Select the Options | Program Options menu item. Select TCP/IP and enter the CNI IP Address and port.

    Are you saying that you want to connect to the network on the far side of a network bridge? i.e. A Remote C-Bus network like this?

    |----| Ethernet |-----| Local C-Bus |--------| Remote C-Bus
    | PC |----------| CNI |-------------| Bridge |-------------*

    Have you entered the path to the remote network ? See the "C-Bus Networks" topic in the help file.

    From the help file :

    Commands can be sent to remote C-Bus networks by selecting the Remote Network check box and entering the path to the network in the edit box. The network path is the addresses of the bridges required to get to the remote network. The addresses must be in hexadecimal.

    For example, if the bridge to network "first floor" is address A1 and the bridge from there to network "second floor" is A2, then the network path to "second floor" will be A1A2.
