Configuring your Videohub Server Settings

If you will be using Ethernet to connect to your Videohub, refer to the "Blackmagic Videohub
Setup" section in this manual.
Videohubs without Ethernet are connected to a computer via USB and other control panels can
see the Videohub by looking for this computer. It effectively becomes a "server", that all the
other control panels on the network can connect to.
A Videohub "server" needs a static IP address and your network administrator will probably
want to configure this for you. Please follow the steps below for your respective
operating system.
Mac OS X
1 Go to System Preferences
2 Click on Network
3 Check the IP address in the configuration information for your Ethernet or
Airport network.
4 Set the network configuration to either Using DHCP with manual address or Manually.
Network Preferences in Mac OS X set to "Using DHCP with manual address"
to provide a static IP address.
Windows 7
1 Open Control Panel
2 Click on the Network and Sharing Center.
3 Next to your connection, click Local Area Connection for Windows 7.
4 Click on Properties and Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).
5 Click on Properties. Ensure "Use the following IP address" has been selected.
Windows 8
1 From the desktop, hover over the right corner to bring up the charms bar.
