Instruction Manual – DXLink Fiber Transmitters and Receivers
TCP/IP Address Configuration
DXLink Fiber Transmitters and Receivers support IPV4 network addresses, gateway addresses, DNS server addresses,
and network names. They also support NDP (NetLinx Discovery Protocol) capabilities as well as IP discovery via
NetLinx Studio.
Note:
NDP is a device discovery method used by NetLinx Masters. With NDP Beacon enabled, the Master
will transmit NDP Beacons for AMX’s proprietary device discovery.
Telnet IP Configuration Commands
The
SET IP
and
GET IP
Telnet commands listed in the tables in Appendix B (which start on page 104) can be sent
directly to the DXLink Fiber units via a Telnet terminal session. These commands can be used for initial network
configuration of the units.
The default Telnet port is 23.
Telnet is enabled by default.
A value of 0 disables the telnet server.*
For details, see “Appendix B – Telnet (Terminal) Commands” on page 104. The appendix also includes a section on
“Master Connection Modes” on page 119.
* If you set the Telnet port to “0” to disable it, you will need to perform a factory reset using the ID Pushbutton to
re-enable it (see page 70).
External Master Versions
If the DXLink Fiber TX or RX unit is bound to an external Master, we recommend using the versions listed in the table
below, which can be found on the product’s page at www.amx.com.
