CHAPTER 8: OSD FUNCTIONS
FIGURE 8-23. TRANSMITTER NETWORK SETTINGS WINDOW
If the new IP address for the Emerald SE Transmitter is on a different subnet than the Receiver, the Receiver or Manager will not be
able to communicate with it without going through a router. This is the case even on a point-to-point link between devices.
If the entered IP address is not the address of a valid Emerald SE Transmitter or this address is unreachable, an error message is
returned.
Discover Transmitter IP Address
This requires the Transmitter to be connected to the Receiver on a point-to-point link or be the only Transmitter on the attached
network. in this case, the administrator can click on the Discover button and follow the wizard to discover the IP address of the
attached Transmitter. This is required in the case when an administrator does not know the IP address of the Transmitter.
Transmitter Diagnostics
The Transmitter provides diagnostics information for Black Box to debug customer encountered issues. When this button is
clicked the user is asked to save the diagnostics onto a memory stick in the Receiver unit. Send this file back to Black Box for
analysis.
