Manual Network Configuration

If your network does not use a DHCP server, obtain an approved static IP, subnet mask, and gateway from your network 
administrator. 

The IncodeX Stream uses a default static IP address of 169.254.31.2 if a DHCP server is not detected on the network. 
Removing your DHCP enabled Windows PC from the network will cause the PC to default to a 169.254.x.x static 
IP address. If the PC does not default to the static IP address of 169.254.x.x after doing this, contact your network 
administrator or LEIGHTRONIX technical support for help setting up a static IP address on your PC.

Firewall Considerations

Connect the IncodeX Stream’s Ethernet port to the Ethernet 

port on your laptop or PC with an Ethernet cable. 

Open a web browser.

In the address bar, enter the IncodeX Stream’s default static 

IP address, 169.254.31.2, and press enter.

In lowercase, enter “admin” into the “Username” field and 

“stream” into the “Password” field of the login prompt. Click 

“Ok” to login.

Stop the IncodeX Stream from encoding by clicking the
“Stop Encoder” button.

Select the “Static” mode from the first “Network Settings” 

drop-down box.

Enter the IP, subnet mask, and gateway information into the 

corresponding fields. 

NOTE:

 Be sure to write down your static 

IP address in a known location so that it is available if needed. 

This information will be required to access your IncodeX Stream’s 

interface in the future.

Click the “Apply Settings” button. The IncodeX Stream will 

automatically reboot to apply the network address changes.  

Disconnect the Ethernet cable from your computer or laptop, and 

then connect it to your network.
