Page 9: Nhd-000-Ctl Controller Network Ports
The AV/POE port is exclusively used for communication with the NetworkHD encoders, decoders and the computer running the configuration software. Thus, the CONTROL port cannot be the only network connection on the CTL. Copyright © 2020 WyreStorm Technologies | WyreStorm.com Outside UK: 844.280.WYRE (9973) | UK: +44 (0) 1793 230 343... -
Page 10: System Configuration
Since the AV/POE interface on the CTL is exclusively used to communicate with NetworkHD encoders/decoders and the computer running the configuration software WyreStorm highly recommends that during first-time setup, the NetworkHD encoders/decoders are allowed to assign IP addresses according to rule 2 – auto-IP in the absence of a DHCP server. -

Assign the PC’s IP address into the same range as the encoder(s). By default, this will be in the 169.254.x.x range with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. Run the WyreStorm Management Suite and start the NetworkHD Console software. Hit the search button located at the top left of the Console. All available NetworkHD components along with their IP addresses will populate. - Page 36 Note: The WyreStorm Management Suite is only available on Windows OS. If using a Mac computer, network scanning software can be used to find encoders and their IP addresses. The NetworkHD Console is required if adjusting IP addresses. Choose an encoder from the list and note its IP address.
- Page 37 Note: WyreStorm cannot guarantee all control systems support the decoding of NetworkHD MPEG preview stream. Contact the control system’s manufacturer for detailed information. Setting an encoder’s preview stream to its maximum values could overload the processor. This will cause severe video performance issues.
