Configurat tion and Setup p 1. You w will need to set fixed IP addres sses for each o of your DT11 de evices. This is necessary for proper operat tion, and so o that the DT11 1 units will not t interfere with h any other dev vices on your n network. How ever, you can s skip setting g the IP addres sses on the uni its, and go to S Step 2, only if: The TX and RX units a are connected only by an Eth hernet cable, w with no router o or switch in betwee en (one‐to‐one e operation): DT11‐TX T11‐RX ...

1.1. F First, you will n need to connec ct a computer using an Ether net cable to ea ach DT11 (TX a and RX) unit in order to access its co onfiguration we eb page. In yo ur computer’s network adap pter settings, g ive it a fixed IP P address of 192 .168.168.100, subnet mask 2 255.255.255.0. n Windows XP, this can be do one using the fo ollowing proce edure: .1.1. Go to CON NTROL PANEL > NETWORK C ONNECTIONS > right‐click LO OCAL AREA CON NNECTIONS, th hen click on ST TATUS. Click o on the PROPER RTIES button, sc croll‐down, an d double‐click ...

1.4. N Next, connect t the unit to you ur computer us sing any standa ard Ethernet ca able. Once the e cable is connected, the e STATUS LED t turns green. 1.5. O Open a browse er, and enter th he following “S Setup IP addres ss”, depending g if the unit you u are configuri ng is a transmitter o or a receiver: .5.1. Transmitt ter (PCA) 192.168. .168.21 .5.2. Receiver ( (TVA) 192.168. .168.22 1.6.

Now, you can enter an IP address for this unit, and also a friendly device name. Some rules‐of‐thumb: Because the DT11 / DT70 units will not be interacting with any other devices on your network, the IP address should be on a subnet which is currently not used by any device on your network. For example, if your router and DHCP server use the 192.168.1.x subnet, you set all your DT11 / DT70 devices to another subnet, such as its current factory subnet 192.168.168.x. However, be sure that every DT11 / DT70 unit has a unique address. For the Device Name, use a descriptive name which can easily be identified by the user. See example below. Permitted IP Address Ranges: 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.254.254 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.254.254 10.0.0.0 to 10.254.254.254 When done, click on SAVE, then EXIT. The unit will restart. 1.7. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from your computer and the unit. The DT11 / DT70 unit is now configured with the IP address 192.168.168.200, and Device Name “Lobby TV”. 1.8. Repeat steps 1.2 to 1.7 for all DT11 / DT70 units in your setup, making sure each unit has a different IP address, but MUST HAVE the same first three octets (ie. 192.168.168.x). Here is an example: Unit Type Device Name IP Address DT11‐RX Lobby TV 192.168.168.200 DT11‐RX Upstairs TV 192.168.168.201 DT11‐TX DVD‐Player‐1 ...

2. Run‐time OSD When the DT11‐RX is streaming video from a source transmitter, the OSD options are different than in #1 above. Again, pressing the SOURCE button brings up the OSD: > DVD‐1 (00:00:20) connected > APPLE‐3 (00:00:26) > REFRESH > VGA SYNC > PCA SETTING > TVA OFF > EXIT In the Run‐Time OSD, the list of available transmitters is listed first. In the example here, two transmitters are shown, “DVD‐1” and “APPLE‐3”. The numbers in the parentheses are its MAC addresses. The “connected” status indicates that this DT11‐RX unit is currently showing the AV stream from the transmitter “DVD‐1”. To select another transmitter’s content to display, simply press the SOURCE button again until it is highlighted, wait three seconds, and its stream will be shown instead. VGA SYNC (appears only if input at transmitter is VGA) re‐synchronizes VGA signal REFRESH will search the network again for any enabled DT11‐TX (PCA) units PCA SETTING brings up the options for the currently selected transmitter.
