FS4 Frame Synchronizer/Converter v1.1
NOTE:
If the IP Address Type is DHCP, the IP Address, Netmask, and Default Gateway are gray,
indicating they are set automatically and cannot be changed unless IP Address Type is first set
to Static. Changes are saved and activated upon confirmation using the Apply button.
IP Address
IP Address
determines the static IP address used by the FS4 for TCP/IP networking.
(Networking is discussed in
Chapter 3, Network Connection
.)
Consult your network
administrator about how to set this value.
Netmask
Netmask
determines the subnet mask used by the FS4 for TCP/IP networking.
Default Gateway
Default Gateway
determines the gateway or router used on your LAN for TCP/IP
networking.
Without a properly configured default gateway (whether you have a router/gateway or
not), the FS4 will be unable to see other AJA FS devices on the network, although you
may still be able to control this FS4 via a web browser. Also, without a proper gateway
defined, the discovery feature on the
Network
web page will not work correctly and list
other FS devices on the network.
DHCP (default)
Static Addr
Select automatic IP address assignment from the LAN DHCP server. If
the FS4 cannot find a DHCP server, it fails over to the static IP
address.
Assign a static IP address manually. The factory default static IP
address: 192.168.0.2
Variable
If
IP Address Type
is set to
DHCP
, the IP address is set automatically by
the network DHCP server and cannot be entered here.
If
IP Address Type
is set to
Static
, enter an IP address compatible with
your LAN here. Also enter a netmask and default gateway address
in the following two parameters. Click
Apply
when you are ready to
apply all three entries to change the FS4's network addressing.
If
IP Address Type
is set to
DHCP
and there is a DHCP failure, the IP
address is set to the static IP address. The default static IP address
is 192.168.0.2
Variable
Enter a subnet mask compatible with your LAN. This is only needed
for Static IP configurations. The factory default
Subnet Mask
is
255.255.255.0
If
IP Address Type
is set to DHCP, the Subnet Mask is set by the DHCP
server and cannot be changed by the user.
Variable
Enter a default gateway or router address. This is only needed for
Static IP configurations. The factory
Default Gateway
is 192.168.0.1.
If
IP Address Type
is set to DHCP, the Default Gateway is set by the
DHCP server and cannot be changed by the user.
