Please keep the following in mind as you unpack and install this equipment: • Always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons.
1. INTRODUCTION This IP Master Controller is a powerful and flexible solution for controlling multiple SDVoE (Software Defined Video over Ethernet) based extenders within same network. The user only needs to install this unit into the same local network as the extenders (Transmitter and Receiver) to easily define and configure channel routing selections (including video, audio, and a variety of control interface types) using the WebGUI.
6. OPERATION CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS 6.1 Front Panel POWER IP Master Control POWER LED: This LED will illuminate to indicate the unit is on and receiving power. IR Window: Accepts IR signals from the included IR remote for control of this unit only. 6.2 Rear Panel TX RX DC 5V...
LAN 2 Port: Connect directly, or through a network switch, to your PC/ laptop to control the unit via WebGUI/Telnet. LAN 1(POE) Port: This port is used to connect to the SDVoE devices to be controlled. Connect to the SDVoE units’ private network through their dedicated network switch, to enable detection and control over those units.
