DEC-3
00™ is capable to receive a stream either as a unicast stream or a multicast stream. According
to the entered source IP-address, the decoder will automatically recognize whether it concerns about
a unicast or multicast stream.

Description:
Transport Protocol:
Specifies the transport protocol. You can choose between the
connectionless protocol UDP and the connection-oriented
protocol TCP. If you use TCP, your source must also support the
TCP protocol. Furthermore, no multicast is supported when using
TCP. If you choose ‘TCP/SERVER’, your source must be the
client. If you choose ‘TCP/CLIENT’, your source must be the
server. For more information, please see chapter 4.3 on page 47.
.!.
If network errors occur in your network, we
recommend using TCP protocol.
IP address:
Specifies the stream which should the DEC-3
00™ receive.
If you want to receive a multicast stream:
Please enter in the ‘IP address’ field your desired multicast IP-
address, e. g. 239.252.20.100.
If you want to receive a unicast stream:
Please enter in the ‘IP address’ field the IP-address of the source,
e. g. the IP-address of the ENC-3
00™, see Figure 12.
Or type in ‘0.0.0.0’
Port number:
Specifies the port number of the stream which should DEC-3
00™
receive. Enter here the port number of your desired stream.
