Chapter 2 – eMini-Setup
Overview
This chapter describes using the eMini-Setup application to initially communicate
with and configure a 10 GigE IP Mini-Converter over a direct USB connection.
Once configured, the IP Mini-Converter can be accessed via an Ethernet network
using a web browser. Subsequently, that device can then be reconfigured over
that network, using its IP address and built-in web server.
NOTE: The eMini-Setup application is only used to setup selected Ethernet capable AJA
devices, and cannot be used to connect to or setup other AJA Mini-Converters.
The general procedure is:
1. Acquire eMini-Setup from the AJA website and install the eMini-Setup
application onto a computer.
2. Connect the IP Mini-Converter to that computer’s USB port.
3. Launch the eMini-Setup application.
4. Go to the Control Network tab and Media Network tabs, where the IP
address settings are displayed. You can use the existing DHCP assigned IP
address, or it can be changed manually.
5. You can also use eMini-Setup to load firmware to the device, although this
can also be done quickly and easily using the web browser interface.
