SDI units are shipped with a static factory default IP address of
192.168.1.10
for the Network I/O controller.
It is likely that this will need to be changed – or set to automatic – in order
to fit in with the network environment in which the unit is to be installed.
To do this, set your windows PC TCP/IP settings to a fixed address in the
same domain as the SDI unit.
(As shown right.)
The SDI Manager connection uses a separate IP address from the
Dante connectivity. Settings for the Dante Environment should
only be managed through the Dante Controller software.
Run the
SDI Manager
application. If the IP address is correctly
configured the unit will appear in the
Device Selection
pane of the
software.
To connect to the SDI unit: right-click the IP address and click
Connect
.
Once connected the unit will be highlighted green.
