Establishing Connection
N2622S Decoders are shipped with
DHCP
as their default IP mode. The IP address
is assigned automatically based on the network DHCP server. If no DHCP server is
found, the unit will use
Auto IP
mode instead (with a default IP address of 169.254.
xxx.xxx).
Before using your N2622S Decoder unit, it must be configured using the free N-Able
device management software. However, you will not be able to configure units
until they are in the same subnet as the host computer. The sample steps below
show how the required changes (to the host computer’s IP settings) are made in a
Windows environment.
▪
Steps for IP Address Configuration:
1.
From the
Control Panel > Network and Internet
dialog box, select
Network and
Sharing Center
.
2.
Select

option, and enter the static IP address
provided to you by your network administrator
.
NOTE: If the computer does not need Internet access, you can simply enter a unique
169.254.xxx.xxx IP address with a 255.255.0.0 Subnet mask. Please contact your
network administrator if you are unsure of how to configure the existing interface.
If the computer has a statically assigned IP address, click on the Advanced
button. Then click Add to enter a unique 169.254.xxx.xxx address with a subnet of
255.255.0.0.

Steps for auto discovering devices on the network:
7.
Use the host computer to download and install the latest version of N-Able:
PC version -
http://www.amx.com/products/N-ABLE-PC.asp
8.
Attach your N2622 Decoder unit(s) to the managed network switch.
9.
Connect the host computer to the same managed network switch.
10. Open the N-Able application.
Note: If all devices do not appear automatically, click the
Auto Discover
button on
the
Unit Management
tab. This issues a broadcast command that will discover all units
▪
Logging in Using N-Able Software
Once the host IP address is configured properly, you can view all discovered units
using the N-Able software. Access the N2622S Decoder units from the following
tabs:
•
Unit Management
tab -
N2600 Encoder/Decoder
is listed in the
Type
field.
•
Video Matrix
tab - N2622S Decoder units are found on the
N2600
sub-tab of
this screen.
Double-click the unit’s name (in one of the lists mentioned above) to view its
Settings
page. If prompted, enter
admin
and
password
for the default username and
password. Once logged in, you can change the username and password (using the
options on the unit’s
Settings
page). From this page, you can access any of the main
pages of the unit’s GUI.
NOTE: If you would like for N-Able to support auto-login to your units, make sure
N-Able’s Device Auto-login settings match the unit’s username and password (by
selecting N-Able
> Settings from the N-Able tool bar).
NOTE: N2622 Decoder units can be configured to force HTTPS connections, so your
web browser may give you a security warning. N-Able on Windows will ask you to
download OpenSSL for Windows to connect HTTPS.
