Networking Essentials
The following network prerequisites must be met:
• Any multiviewer you wish to configure or access by using XEdit or XAdmin must be
connected to an Ethernet switch.
• A client workstation must be connected to the LAN or Ethernet switch to access the
multiviewer by using XAdmin or XEdit.
• The Ethernet switch must support 100 Mbps full-duplex connections.
• The port on the Ethernet switch to which the multiviewer is connected should be
configured to auto-negotiate. By default, multiviewers have their Ethernet ports set to
auto-negotiate. If a switch does not support auto-negotiation, the recommended
settings are 100 Mbps, full-duplex.
Assigning an IP Address to Each Device in your System
Multiviewers and most peripheral devices that are part of a KMV-3901/3911 system
communicate through a TCP/IP network. Configuring your system’s network parameters
includes the following:
• Assigning an IP address, and specifying the appropriate network mask, gateway
address, and a system name for each multiviewer. See
• Configuring the Kaleido-RCP2, if available. See
Setting the Multiviewer’s IP addresses
For the KMV-3901/3911 multiviewer to join a TCP/IP network, it must be configured with an
IP address, a network mask, a gateway, and a system name. You must also configure any
Kaleido-RCP2 units you may have ordered.
The KMV-3901/3911 is shipped with the following default settings:
Once the networking parameters are correctly configured on all KMV-3901/3911 cards, it
will not be necessary to switch off the Densité frame’s power when installing or removing
cards.
System IP address
192.168.3.31
Network mask
255.255.255.0
Gateway
192.168.3.1
Note:
If the system IP address of the multiviewer has been changed (i.e. it no
longer corresponds to the as-shipped configuration), it is still possible to
determine the current setting. To determine the IP address of your
KMV-3901/3911 multiviewer, see
