Getting started
This guide provides basic information on
setting up the TVE-120, TVE-420, TVE-820
and TVE-1620 models.
All encoder configuration and control is done
via the webpage. Before you start using the
encoder, you must first activate the device by
setting up a strong password.
Default network settings
The default network settings are:

When you first start up the device, the
Activation window appears. You must define a
high security admin password before you can
access the device. There is no default
password provided.
Tips on creating a strong password:
• A valid password range must be between 8
and 16 characters. You can use a
combination of numbers, lower and upper
case letters, and special characters: _ - , *
& @ / $ ? Space. The password must
contain characters from at least two of
these groups.
• The password is case-sensitive so use a
mixture of upper and lower case letters.
• Do not use personal information or
common words as a password
