Installation & Configuration
Using a Direct Connection
By default, the HD KVM over IP is shipped in Auto IP mode. Auto IP mode is used
for directly connecting Sender and Receiver units to one another. In Auto IP mode
each Sender and Receiver unit assigns itself a unique IP address within the range of
169.254.x.x . To configure the units to work over a LAN, we must access the
Web interface of the Sender and Receiver unit on a computer. Then, we can change
the network settings.
1. Use the included HDMI cable to connect the Hi-Def source to the
HDMI In
port on the
Sender unit.
2. Connect an HDMI cable from the Hi-Def display to the HDMI Out port on the Receiver
unit.
3. Connect a shielded CAT-5e (or better) cable from the LAN port on the Sender unit to
the LAN 1 port on the Receiver unit.
4. Connect another shielded CAT-5e (or better) cable from one of the Ethernet ports on
the Receiver unit to a PC.
5. Connect the included 5V DC locking power supplies to both the Sender unit and
Receiver unit. Do not overtighten the locking connectors. Connect the included AC
power cords from the power supplies to available electrical outlets.
6. Obtain the IP address of both the Sender and Receiver unit by disconnecting the
HDMI cable from the Sender unit (or from the source device). Information, similar to
the illustration on the next page, will be displayed.
