CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION

3.1 BASIC CONNECTIONS   

 
1. Connect an HDMI cable from one of the HDMI In ports on the encoder to an HD video source.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Transport connector on the rear panel of the encoder to a LAN or directly to the PC.
3. Connect the included 12-VDC power supply to the Power connector on the rear panel of the encoder (if you are not using PoE).

3.2 CONNECTING TO THE VS-2002-ENC OR VS-2004-ENC 

 

1. By default, each encoder uses a DHCP IP address if a DHCP server is found on the network. Otherwise, the encoder will assign 
itself a link-local address. To connect to the unit, and depending upon your network setup, you might need to adjust the IP settings 
of the computer so that it can connect to the encoder. 
NOTE: The IP address of the encoder is shown on the LED panel on the unit.
2. Once the computer is reconfigured, launch a browser, and enter the IP address of encoder in the address bar to display the 
encoder’s Maestro web interface.
See Logging In (Section 4.2) for more information on logging in to the Maestro web interface.
See Network Configuration (Section 4.3) for details on setting a static IP address.
