VERSA-4K
General Settings
Device Name
User can assign Device Name to VERSA, which can be used to identify its Location or
Purpose. Device Names are useful for Logical representation of the system in big
installations and they are not linked to IP address. For instance, all the Receivers
connected to the projectors in a school can have Room Number as Device Name. By
default the Device Name is set to "VERSA" for both sender and Receiver.
Group ID
In VERSA's architecture, each service from a Sender is served on Multicast IP. Group ID is
a simpler representation of Multicast IP. Each Sender needs to have a unique Group ID on
the network. A Group ID Ranges from 0000 to 9999, which allows scaling the system up
to 10,000 Senders in one network. A Receiver can receive a service from a sender by
having the same Group ID. In multicast mode multiple Receivers can join in the same
group, and can multiplex various services from Senders in different groups, which is also
called as
Independent
Auto IP
Auto IP, is also called as Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) is a method where a
device on a network assigns itself an unique IP address in the absence of a DHCP Server.
An Auto IP device, such as VERSA holds an IP address in the range of 169.254.x.y in
Auto IP Mode, where : x,y can range from 0 to 255.
By default Auto IP is enabled in VERSA. To access the device WEB-GUI or to control the
device with PC-GUI, the User's PC should be in the following network:
IP Address
Subnet
Independent Routing
Independent Routing featured in the VERSA-4K-R (Receiver) gives the flexibility to
multiplex various services from multiple Senders. For example, a Receiver can receive
video form Group-1, Audio from Group-2 and USB from Group-3 as shown below.
