CNT-IP-264 1. Introduction The CNT‐IP‐264 is a powerful networking module designed to manage Models HHD‐264 and FHD‐264 ‐‐ HDMI over LAN Senders and Receivers, which utilize the latest H.264 encoding. The CNT‐IP‐264 acts as a WEB Server and serves a dynamic web application so to its users to control not only the network of encoders and decoders, but also their companion products such as TV's, Projector's, Media players, etc. The CNT‐IP‐264 uses Hall Research’s DVM (Dynamic Virtual Matrix™) technology to manage up to 64 sources and 256 displays. The CNT‐IP‐264 can switch the Model HHD‐ 264 and FHD‐264 video groups on the fly and shows the video status and routing information on a graphical user interface. Users can access the web application using any computing device ( PC, Smart ) that run a standard browser. phone or Tablet Figure 1.1 Block Diagram The CNT‐IP‐264 provides an easy way to add and control your devices, which have Serial, Telnet and/or TCP control. A customized control panel CNT‐IP‐264 User's Manual 4 ...
CNT-IP-264 containing buttons and labels can be added to the user interface to control your devices individually. If your device has a serial interface, the CNT‐IP‐264 uses the Model HHD‐ 264 or FHD‐264 as a gateway to establish a full duplex communication (Serial Over IP) with the device to be controlled. The CNT‐IP‐264 provides a real‐time scheduler that can run events to automatically change the Model HHD‐264/FHD‐264 video groups and then run actions on external devices. Key Features Plug and Play, no installation required Embedded WEB Server with Graphical User Interface Control Model HHD‐264/FHD‐264 video routing Control External Devices over Serial (SOIP), Telnet or TCP Create custom control for external devices Real time event scheduling with Real‐Time clock Compatible with Hall Research Device Finder Utility Supports DHCP Installation To use all the features of the unit, the user should have Standard Cat 5/5E/6 network cabling A working LAN infrastructure ...
CNT-IP-264 Accessing Web manager The Model CNT‐IP‐2 device comes preconfigured for DHCP IP addressing. To find the current IP address of the device, download and install the Device Finder utility available on Hall Research Website. This software can run on both Windows and MAC computers. NOTE We recommend that you set a static IP on each system in order to guarantee it the same IP address between system power cycles. Run the Device Finder program on the same network as the Model CNT‐IP‐ 264 or any compatible Hall Research IP device in the network. ...
CNT-IP-264 2. WEB Manager Figure 2.1 Device web manager navigation tree Routing Tab The Routing tab shows the list of HHD‐264/FHD‐264 receivers and senders on the network. It uses Hall Research’s DVM (Dynamic Virtual Matrix™) technology to manage 64 sources and 256 displays. The Routing tab shows similar information when you login as admin. Figure 2.2 Routing Tab To change the group of any receiver, simple select the sender in the corresponding dropdown list. The routing tab will be updated in real time, so any changes made to the FHD made outside CNT‐IP‐264 will be automatically updated. 7 ...
CNT-IP-264 Control Tab The Control tab shows the user interface of external devices. When an external device is added to the CNT‐IP‐264, a dedicated control panel is created with the user specified name in the control tab. All the actions related to that device populate the corresponding control panel. Figure 2.3 Control Tab Settings Tab The Settings tab is used to change the system configuration of the CNT‐IP‐ 264. Users need to login as admin to access this tab. Network Settings Tab The Network Settings tab is used to change the IP configuration of the CNT‐ IP‐264. Note that the Name and location fields are used by the Device Finder Utility to locate CNT‐IP‐264 in the network. Figure 2.4 Network Settings CNT‐IP‐264 User's Manual 8 ...
CNT-IP-264 System Settings Tab The System Settings tab is used to do operations like: Factory reset configuration: Removes all of the the following: External device configuration Scheduled events DHCP will be turned on Defaults device name and Location Factory Reset Generate config file Save the device configuration to a config file. Click the “Generate config file” button followed by download to download the file to your local computer. Do not manually edit the config file ...
CNT-IP-264 External Device Tab All the 3rd party devices that are used along with the Model CNT‐IP‐264 and HHD‐264/FHD‐264 subsystems are referred as external devices. The CNT‐IP‐264 can control external devices via serial, Telnet and/or TCP. NOTE To send serial commands to an external device, connect your device to the FHD/HHD264 RS232 port. The External Device tab has two sub tabs to manage the IP configuration and actions that relate to the external devices on the network. Device Tab Used to add/remove, change the IP configuration of external devices. To add IP device: Click Add Device Enter Name IP Address of the external device TCP PortClick OK NOTE If your device has a Telnet interface and supports raw TCP connection, enter the telnet port in Port text field.
CNT-IP-264 Actions Tab The actions that relate to external device are shown on this tab. Each action creates a button, which can be either Toggle or Momentary in the corresponding device control panel. Toggle buttons have both on action and off action where as Momentary has only on action. Note that each action can run multiple commands on the device. To add an action to external device: Enter Action Name and Click Add Action Select Button Type Button Click Name (if button type is toggle) Select External device from the Name drop down menu Enter list of Commands add more commands by using Add Command button Submit Figure 2.7 Adding Action NOTE Serial Commands must end with \r carriage return Telnet commands supports all ASCII characters \x : Hex \r : Carriage return \n : Line feed ...
CNT-IP-264 Scheduler Tab The CNT‐IP‐264 uses a real‐time clock to schedule its events. An Event can run multiple actions created for external devices at scheduled times and dates. Scheduler Tab shows real time stamps of all the events in the GUI.. NOTE You can schedule a FHD/HHD264 group change in an event An event can be setup to repeat Once, Daily, Weekly and Monthly Figure 2.8 Event Repeat types Adding Event: Enter Data and Click Add Event Enter Event Name Select Event Name TimeAdd External device actions to the event or FHD/HHD264 group change Submit NOTE You need to Set system date and time to schedule events accordingly ...
