Installing DTV-RX02-HD Receivers
DTV-RX02-HD Receivers receive TDS broadcasts from DTV-TX03-US Transmitters (via
Ethernet), and pass the signal to the end display-device via standard A/V connectors. DTV
Receivers do not connect directly to the Transmitters. Rather, they connect to Transmitters
indirectly via the LAN (using a network switch).
•
One DTV-RX02-HD Receiver is required for each display device. The Receivers are
designed to be mounted on or near the display devices.
•
Each DTV-RC01 remote controller is associated with a Receiver via options in the
TDS Configuration Manager. See the
AMX TDS Operation/Reference Guide
for
instructions.
Applying Power to the Receivers
Each DTV-RX02-HD Receiver receives 12 VDC power via the 12VDC POWER connector
on the rear panel (FIG. 3).
Note
: This connector is intended to be used only with the provided power supply.
Connecting DTV-RX02-HD Receivers to the Network
Use standard (Cat5/5e/6 UTP) network cable to connect the DTV-RX02-HD Receivers to a
network switcher. DTV-RX02-HD Receivers feature standard A/V connectors to deliver the
incoming TV signal to the display device (FIG. 4).
Setting the Receiver’s IP Address via the RS 232 Port
In most cases, all setup and configuration for both Transmitters and Receivers is done via
the Digital TV Configuration Manager. However, the Receiver’s IP Address can also be
specified using a local command line interface, accessible via the RS 232 (Serial) port.
In order to configure the network settings via the RS 232 Port, the Receiver must be placed
in Command mode.
To place the Receiver in Command mode, press ’Enter’ while the unit is booting up.
To reboot, re-cycle power to the unit by disconnecting and re-connecting the 12VDC
POWER connector on the rear panel.
Use the
setip lan
command to configure the network settings:
Note
: The default baud rate is
115200
.
Note
: All DTV Transmitters and Receivers must have an assigned
IP
Address
,
Network
Mask
, and
Gateway
Address
in order for the DTV system to work correctly. This applies to
units that utilize DHCP and to units that have been assigned Static IP addresses. If you are
using DHCP, verify that these address assignments are provided by the DHCP Server.
Configuring DTV-RX02-HD Receivers
DTV Receivers are configured via the Digital TV Configuration Manager (see below).
Digital TV Configuration Manager
The DTV-MA01 TDS Management Appliance features a built-in web console called the
Digital TV Configuration Manager
. The Digital TV Configuration Manager allows you to
configure the Receiver and all Transmitters in the TDS solution via a web browser on any
PC that has access to the DTV-MA01 in the TDS system.
These instructions assume that the TDS System has been installed, and that the
DTV-MA01 and a PC is connected to the LAN.
Accessing the Digital TV Configuration Manager
1.
On any PC that has access to the LAN to which the DTV-MA01 is connected, open a
web browser and enter the following default URL to access the TDS Configuration
Pages (on the DTV-MA01):
http://
<
IP Address assigned to the DTV-MA01
>
:8080/TDS/web/TxNetworkPage.xml
2.
Press enter to be prompted for the default
User Name
and
Password
for the DTV-
MA01:
•
Default
User Name
: "
amxdtv
" (case-sensitive)
•
Default
Password
: "
admin
"
(case-sensitive)
Note
: The User Name and Password can be changed via options in the System
Setup page (in the Digital TV Configuration Manager). See the AMX TDS Operation
Reference Guide for details.
3.
Press
OK
to proceed to the Digital TV Configuration Manager. The initial view is of
the
Transmitter Setup
page (FIG. 5).
.
The command buttons along the top of the page provide access to the main areas of the
Digital TV Configuration Manager:
•
Tx Setup
- Click to configure DTV Transmitters
•
Rx Setup
- Click to configure DTV Receivers
•
External AV

Settings
,
Firmware
Upgrade
&
Diagnostics
Logs
) provide access to configuration options
specific to the current area of the Configuration Manager.
