3.2.2 How to control the SE-1200 MU from another building or city
Once you are familiar with the SE-1200 MU you may want to control the switcher from another building or
even a different city. This requires certain internet and network access that may not already be present at
both sites.
Note: It is best to discuss your planned SE-1200 MU set up beforehand with your local I.T. or network
support manager as this process will involve ‘opening’ or ‘forwarding’ TCP/IP ports.
To create this dedicated SE-1200 MU IP set up you will need:
•
Two sites with internet access. We will call these site A and site B.
• Site A will have the same SE-1200 MU set up as Section 3.1 but with no local computer connected.
•
Site B will have a Windows 7/8 computer connected to the internet with VLC Player and the
Controller software.
• Port 5000 will allow streaming of the SE-1200 MU multi view from site A to VLC Player at site B.
