Connecting the Hardware and Power
The procedure below explains how to connect the power, network, and data cables to the vDisplay
HDMI-Pro and iPORT SB-Pro IP engines.
To set up the configuration, perform an un-powered connection of the hardware components:
1. Connect one end of a Cat5/Cat6 cable into the RJ-45 jack of the vDisplay HDMI-Pro IP engine;
attach the other end to an available port of the GigE Switch.
2. Connect one end of a Cat5/Cat6 cable into the RJ-45 jack of the iPORT SB-Pro IP engine; attach
the other end to an available port of the GigE Switch.
3. Attach one end of video cable to the display monitor; attach the other end to the HDMI receptacle
of the vDisplay HDMI-Pro IP engine.
4. Apply power to the vDisplay HDMI-Pro IP engine.
The message, “No Video” appears on the display monitor.
5. Apply power to the iPORT SB-Pro IP engine.
IP Engine Configuration
After you have connected and powered up the hardware components, you must configure the vDisplay
HDMI-Pro and iPORT SB-Pro IP engines for multicast configuration using the GEVPlayer application.
It is preferable to launch 2 copies of GEVPlayer to perform both configurations. Configure the vDisplay
IP engine first.
Configuring the vDisplay IP Engine
1. Start the GEVPlayer application.
2. In the section, “Unicast Network Configuration” on page 39 , follow Steps 2 to 6 to connect to the
vDisplay HDMI-Pro IP engine. Choose to connect as a controller (the value chosen in the Stream
