Installation and Configuration

Setup

When connecting point to point, no configuration is needed. When connecting point to many, many to point and many to many, please make sure every TX and RX has unique IP and MAC address, every TX has unique group ID.

Our this over IP Extender has been assigned unique default MAC address for every TX and RX, so you don’t have to set the MAC for the units. You just need to set the IP address and Group ID following bellowing steps.

Setting the IP address

A). DHCP (Dynamic host configuration protocol)
If you are using a Switch that supports DHCP, please enable DHCP so that the Switch will assign an unique IP for TX and RX, and you don’t need to change the IP for the units manually.

B). Set the IP via web browser
If you are using a Switch that doesn’t support DHCP, please change the default IP for TX (192.168.1.11) and RX (192.168.1.12) manually.
A HTTP server is embedded in each TX and RX. You can set up IP address for HDMI Extender via web browser
The default IP address of the TX is 192.168.1.11 , user name: admin, password: admin
The default IP address of the RX is 192.168.1.12

Step 1: Make sure the Transmitter and PC are in the same domain.

Access the Network Setting Control Panel in Windows and locate your Lan connection. Under Windows 7, this can be done by clicking Start > Control Panel >Network Sharing center>Change adapter settings > Properties >Internet Protocol Version4 (TCP/IPv4). Change the IP address field to 192.168.1.1 (0-255). After that press “OK” to save the configuration.

Note

• The PC and TX/RX should be in the same domain.
• The IP address of PC should be different from the IP address of TX and RX.

Step 2: Use an Ethernet Cable to connect the PC (or laptop) and the extender. the power LED for the extender is red and the green status is blinking.
Step 3: Login in IE: 192.168.1.11 (default IP for TX) or 192.168.1.12(default IP for RX), You can setup IP address for the TX and RX. TX requires user name: admin and password: admin Please set IP address for each TX and each RX, IP: 192.168.1.XX (XX:1-255. all IP address for TX and RX must be different and can’t be same as the PC’s address.)
Step 4: After selecting “Use DHCP” or reset the IP Address, click “Submit” (transmitter) or “update DHCP” (Receiver).
Step 5: Click “Reboot”.

Step 6: Restart the extender after resting the IP Address.

Set the group ID for TX and RX via web browser Step 1: Make sure the Transmitter and PC are in the same domain. (Refer to 5.1.1)

Step 2: Use an Ethernet Cable to connect the PC (or laptop) and the Extender. the power LED for the extender is red and the green status LED is blinking.
Step 3: Power on the TX or RX with 5V 1A power supply.
Step 4: Login in IE: 192.168.1.11 (default IP for TX) or 192.168.1.12(default IP for RX), TX requires user name: admin and pass word: admin.
Step5: Change the group ID at “Stream setting”.
Step 6: Click “Submit” (transmitter) or update (receiver).

Note

• Make sure the Group ID is different for each Transmitter under one to many and many to many mode.

Preparing the switch

When doing point to many and many to many, it requires a switch to distribute the sources. We suggest you use the Switch that supports IGMP and DHCP. IGMP feature help to manage the group ID which is related to switch the sources; DHCP allow the switch to assign an IP for TX and RX automatically, please enable DHCP of the switch.
