Installation

Basic Connections

1. Connect an HDMI cable from the HDMI In port on the ZyPerMX to an HD video source.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the TRANSPORT connector, on the rear panel of the
ZyPerMX, to a LAN or directly to the PC.
3. Connect the included 12 V DC power supply to the POWER connector on the rear panel of
the ZyPerMX.

Connecting to the ZyPerMX

By default, each ZyPerMX encoder uses a static IP address of 192.168.1.10. In order to
connect to the unit, and depending upon your network setup, it may be necessary to adjust the IP
settings of the computer so that it can connect to the ZyPerMX.
For example, if the computer being used to connect to the ZyPerMX has an IP address of
10.5.64.223, then it will not be able to connect because 192.168.1.10 is within a different
subnet. In order to connect to the ZyPerMX, temporarily change the IP address of the computer
to something like 192.168.1.x, where x can be any number except 10.
Once the computer is reconfigured, launch a browser, and enter the IP address of
192.168.1.10 in the address bar to display the ZyPerMX Maestro web interface.
See Logging In (page 4) for more information on logging in to the Maestro web interface.
See Network Configuration (page 5) for details on setting DHCP and static IP addresses.

Using Bonjour Discovery

The Bonjour zero-configuration (zeroconf) service provides a simple method for automatically
detecting and displaying services and devices on a Local Area Network.
This service can be used on both OS X and Windows platforms.
1. Download a Bonjour browsing application.
2. Launch the Bonjour application. The example below shows the Bonjour Browser
for OS X.
3. Click the Workgroup Manager section to expand it.
4. Each ZyPerMX device will be displayed, along with the MAC address.
5. Click the arrow next to the ZyPerMX unit to expand it and display the IP address.
6. Launch a web browser, and enter the IP address of the ZyPerMX unit to display the
ZyPerMX Maestro web interface.
7. See Logging In (page 4) for more information on logging in to the Maestro web interface.
