OK.

No. R means receive from the network. When you press
R you get to the network setup screen, you are supposed
to tell linrad what kind of input you want to receive.

A master has to be put in transmit mode. Press T
and note that "NETSEND" comes up in red.

You may press W here to have the network active 
in tx mode next time Linrad is started.

No. You are not in any net mode.

??????????????
This can not be the whole story.
You can only have NETSEND in red if your network
setup has enabled something (4 through 9) 
When NETSEND is present in red, Linrad will start
acting as a master as soon as you enter a processing mode.

Here you have had "NETWORK RX INPUT xxxx" in red on
the top line. It is now a slave. When you enter a 
processing mode Linrad will wait for the network 
data from a master.

Yes. You are supposed to start a master on the network now:-)
This computer is sucessfully set up as a slave.

---------------------------------------------------------

Setup for a master:
1) Press N to select data format (e.g. RAW16).
2) Press T to tell Linrad to make net transmit active.
3) Press W to remember this computer is the master.
4) Press e.g. A to start operation.
The system monitor will show network activity.


Setup for a slave:
1) Press N to select data format (e.g. RAW16).
2) Press R to tell Linrad to use the net for input.
3) Press W to remember this computer is a slave.
4) Press e.g. A to start operation.


Good luck!
