USER MANUAL
Accessing The Video Over IP Web-GUI Interface
Each ELAN Video Over IP product comes out of the box with a fixed IP address of 169.254.100.254. Once your PC network is
amended to work in the same IP range as the fixed IP of the Video Over IP products, you can communicate directly with the built-in
web server in each Video Over IP Transmitter or Receiver.
Once a Video Over IP product has been configured using the PC Wizard program, manual configuration or the Web GUI interface, it
will have a different IP address to that of the factory default unit. If you are unsure of the IP address of the Video Over IP product you
can press and hold the 'UP' channel button on each product for several seconds which will show the product ID/IP address. You can
also use the ELAN Video Over IP Wizard PC programs 'Search' feature to show all available Video Over IP products on the system.
Entering the fixed IP address (for new units), or the configured IP address of an already set-up unit, into a web browser on your PC,
gives you access to the units configuration for monitoring, resetting, firmware upgrading, or further configuration.
Transmitters
The first product to be assigned an IP address when using the PC Wizard is an EL-4KPM-VIP-TX Transmitter which will be given the
IP address of 169.254.3.1. The next Transmitter will be assigned an IP address of 169.254.3.2 and so on....
Once the IP range of 169.254.3.x is filled (254 units), the PC wizard will continue the auto assign of an IP address from 169.254.4.1
and so on...
Once the IP range of 169.254.4.x is filled the PC wizard will auto assign an IP address of 169.254.5.1 and so on until
169.254.4.254
Receivers
After all Transmitter products have been set up the PC wizard will automatically assign an IP address to the Video Over IP Receivers.
The first EL-4KPM-VIP-RX Receiver will be given the IP address of 169.254.6.1. The next Receiver will be assigned an IP address of
169.254.6.2 and so on....
Once the IP range of 169.254.6.x is filled (254 units) the PC wizard will continue the auto assign of an IP address from 169.254.7.1
and so on...
Once the IP range of 169.254.7.x is filled the PC wizard will auto assign an IP address of 169.254.8.1 and so on until
169.254.8.254
Once a system has been set-up, it can be difficult to know what products have been configured within the system. This part of the
guide will explain the use of directly comunicating with an individual unit. It is assumed therefore that you will already know the IP
address of the unit you want to communicate with. The Web-GUI is similar in function to the ELAN Video Over IP PC Program with the
majority of options on the Web-GUI being concurrently available within the PC program, however the Web-GUI should primarily be
used as a tool for checking configuration, or problem solving, rather than as a method for setting up a new system.
Below is the 'home' screen of both the Transmitter and Receiver units that will be displayed on entering the IP address of the unit
you are connected to:
