FS3 Frame Synchronizer/Converter v1.1r1 24 www.aja.com
If the FS3 cannot get an address from the network DHCP server, the FS3 will
automatically use a preset factory static IP address of 192.168.0.2. You can access
the FS3 using the default static address as follows:
1. Set your computer’s IP address to whatever address you prefer in the
192.168.0 (class C) network.
2. Set the computer’s Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 (most PCs default to the
proper netmask when the address is set).
3. Set the gateway address, if used, to match the FS3 default: 192.168.0.1.
Alternatively, change the FS3 gateway address to match your gateway:
A. Press CONFIG, turn SELECT to 2.4 Default Gateway, push and then turn
ADJUST to change the first group of digits.
B. Turn SELECT to advance to the next set of numbers, and turn ADJUST to set
these numbers.
C. Continue using SELECT and ADJUST to set the full address.
D. When finished, push ADJUST momentarily to save the address.
5. Run a browser on the computer and type “192.168.0.2” (the factory static IP
address). You should now see the FS3’s browser status screen.
When you can access the FS3 screens, see
"Chapter 5 Browser Remote Control" on
for details about configuring the FS3 using a browser.
Networking the FS3 Using Your Own Static IP
If you don’t want to use DHCP or the default static IP address, you can set your
own static IP address:
1. Select the CONFIG button and use the SELECT knob to navigate to
parameter 2.1 IP CONFIG. Use the DJUST knob to select Static.
2. Turn SELECT to navigate to parameter 2.2 IP ADDRESS. The display shows
the default static IP address: 192.168.0.2.
3. Change the IP address as follows.
A. Push the DJUST knob momentarily so that the first octet (set of numbers)
blinks, and then turn ADJUST to change the numbers.
B. Turn SELECT to advance to the next set of numbers, and turn ADJUST to set
these numbers.
C. Continue using SELECT and ADJUST to set the full address.
D. When finished, push ADJUST momentarily to save the address.
5. Turn SELECT to advance to 2.3 Subnet Mask. Use the SELECT and DJUST
knobs as in the previous step to set the desired subnet mask.
6. Turn SELECT to advance to 2.4 Default Gateway. Use the SELECT and DJUST
knobs as in the previous step to set the desired gateway address.
7. Run a browser on the computer and type in the IP address you set for the
FS3. You should now see the FS3’s Status screen.
