MULTICAST MODE
When VEO-XTI1CG2 and VEO-XRI1CG2 devices are
connected in a point to multipoint or
multipoint to multipoint topology, every transmitter and receiver should have a unique
IP address
. When possible, it is recommended to create an independent IP video network
using managed network switches. Use of gigabit switches with an IGMP support will create
the most appropriate scenario.
1.
Set the IP address
for each transmitter and receiver.
2.
Connect the source devices to the HDMI ports of the VEO-XTI1CG2 transmitters.
3.
Connect the HDMI endpoints to the HDMI ports of the VEO-XRI1CG2 receivers
.
4.
Connect Audio IN/OUT
to a sound device
and select the required audio mode.
5.
Connect an RS-232
cable from the automation system
to the transmitters ports.
6.
Connect RS-232
cables from the receivers to the ports of the devices to control.
7.
Connect all VEO devices
to the network switch using Cat. 5e/6/7cables.
8.
Power VEO-XTI1CG2 transmitter and VEO-XRI1CG2 receiver
with the included
power adapter and power the switch. In case the switch supports PoE (Power over
Ethernet), it will not be necessary to power the VEO devices locally.
9.
Choose the desired ID channel for each of the VEO devices
in order to establish the
required video transmission flows.
