Tx (Transmitter) Unit Configuration - ADDER AdderLink Infinity User Manual

TX (transmitter) unit configuration

In the Infinity system, the majority of configuration settings are dictated by
RX units. Therefore, the local TX unit setup (using its browser-based
the
configuration utility) is concerned only with three main factors: Its IP address
details, the data streams to enable/disable and video signal optimisation. Other
TX unit pages, such as System Messages,
are generally not used or altered during the majority of installations and are
discussed elsewhere in this guide. See
Using the System Configuration page

2 Ensure that the IP address and netmask for the TX unit are correct. The
default settings are 192.168.16.129 and 255.255.255.0 respectively. Where
changes are necessary, enter the new values and click the Update Now
button. You will need to declare the System IP Address that is set here to the
RX unit(s)
linked to the TX unit.
3 Check that the data streams (Video TX, Audio TX/RX and USB TX/RX) are
enabled (ticked) or disabled (unticked) as appropriate. There are similar
options within the Infinity RX unit configuration and it is important that the
settings in both units are the same. If one of these options is ticked in one
unit but unticked in the other, then that data stream will remain disabled. If
you make a change, remember to click the Update Now button.

Using the TX Video Configuration page
Note: Where the Infinity system is connected to a Gigabit Ethernet network
with sufficient available bandwidth, there should be no need to alter the default
settings on this page.

2 Make changes to the controls as necessary. There is no single combination
of adjustments that will suit all installations, but generally:
• If colour quality is important, then leave Colourdepth at 24 bits and
adjust other controls,
• If moving video images are being shown frequently, then leave Frame
Skipping at a low percentage and instead reduce the Peak bandwidth
limiter and Colourdepth.
• Where screens are quite static, try increasing the Background Refresh
interval and/or increasing the Frame skipping percentage setting.
Make changes one at a time, in small steps, and view typical video images so
that you can attribute positive or negative results to the appropriate control.
See TX Video Configuration for individual explanations of the controls.
