  • Page 5: Important Remark

    IMPORTANT REMARK The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
  • Page 6 8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong.

  • Page 15: Installation And Configuration

    7.2. How to find out the IP address of devices VEO-XTI2L and VEO-XRI2L devices have the "Auto IP" function set by default. This provides automatic IP address assignment on devices that are connected to the same network.
  • Page 16 Receiver • Connect the HDMI output of the receiver to a display. The receiver will display the IP address information in the lower right-hand corner of the monitor. The 'Local IP' is the address for the receiver Transmitter • Connect the transmitter, with no source connected to the HDMI input on the receiver.

  • Page 17: Requirements And Recommendations For Using A Veo Ip Video Network

    7.3. Requirements and recommendations for using a VEO IP video network It is necessary to use gigabit switches with support for Jumbo Frame (or, if this is not available, the ability to extend the size of the IP packet) and IGMP. This will create the most appropriate scenario both for standalone IP video networks, and for cases where IP video systems share the network with other data streams.

  • Page 18: System Topology And Configurations

    8.1. Point-to-point connection When the VEO-XTI2L and VEO-XRI2L are connected as a simple extension within a point-to-point topology, no configuration is required. The devices have a default setting of "Auto IP" (169.254.x.x), and each transmitter will send a unicast video stream to the corresponding receiver when the same Group ID is selected.

  • Page 19: Multipoint-To-Multipoint Connections And Operations

    8.3. Multipoint-to-multipoint connections and operations When the VEO-XTI2L and VEO-XRI2L are to be used as an IP matrix system within a multipoint-to-multipoint connection, both the transmitters and the receivers must be configured as multicast devices. Each receiver can decode the stream related to the group ID of the desired transmitter.

  • Page 20: Video Wall Mode

    8.5. Video wall mode When the VEO-XTI2L and VEO-XRI2L are to be used in video wall mode, both the transmitters and the receivers must be configured as multicast devices. Each receiver must be set to the same Group ID as the transmitter, following the instructions provided in the ‘Configuring video wall mode using the control...

  • Page 21: Configuration Using Eclernet Manager

    Start up the EclerNet Manager software and select the corresponding network card. Then, open the "Online and Unused Device List" tab. The software will automatically discover all the VEO-XTI2L and VEO-XRI2L devices present on the network and list them in the window in question.
  • Page 22 If you need to modify any of the network parameters of the discovered pieces of equipment, simply right-click on the selected element to display the action menu, and choose the "Network Configuration" option, where you can modify the information related to the network identifier.

How to add VEO-XTI2l and VEO-XRI2L to an EclerNet Manager project Once all the devices have been discovered, they can be incorporated into an EclerNet Manager project by simply dragging each individual element into any of the work areas of the software, shown with a green box.
  • Page 24 As soon as this process is completed, the added devices will appear in the "Devices" window and disappear from the "Online and Unused Device List" box. If the green indicator appears, it means that these elements are ready to be configured and/or used.
  • Page 25 Otherwise, if the indicator is red, you need to investigate the reason for this. The most likely reason is that this equipment is not within the same network range as the control computer.
