TCP configuration: ENC-200
™ is the Server
Follow the steps below, to create a TCP connection at which the ENC-200
™ is the server:
Please open the
ENC-
200™
webpage, go to the
ENCODER > SETTINGS
webpage and
select in the
‘Transport Protocol’
drop-down field the variable
‘TCP/SERVER’
.
Go to the
ENCODER > DESTINATION
webpage of the ENC-200
™ and enter in
‘Port’
field a
port number which is not blocked (e. g. 1234). The ENC-200 listens at this port number and as
soon as a TCP request is sent by the decoder, the encoder negotiates with the decoder about
a new port number.
Remain at the
ENCODER > DESTINATION
webpage of the ENC-200
™ and enter a value in
the
‘Sendbuffer Size’
field (e.g. 250000).
The ‘Sendbuffer Size’ specifies how much TCP data
are maximal stored at the sender side (at the encoder side). The higher the value, the more
network problems can be absorbed, but the higher is the delay at the decoder in error case.
After an error case, the delay decreases again. The delay increases only, if an error occurs in
the network. That means: If no network problems occur, the delay does not increase, even
though a high value is set in the ‘Sendbuffer Size’ field.
Please open the
DEC-3
00™
webpage, go to the
DECODER > SOURCE
webpage and select
in the
‘Transport Protocol’
drop-down field the variable
‘TCP/CLIENT’
.
At the
DECODER > SOURCE
webpage of the DEC-300
™, please enter in the
‘IP address’
field the IP-address of the ENC-
200™ (e. g. 172.16.20.100). Note: TCP supports only unicast.
Remain at the
DECODER > SOURCE
webpage of the DEC-300
™ and enter in the
‘Port
number’
field the same port number, which you have entered in the ENC-200
™ (e.g. 1234).
Now the ENC-200
™ and the DEC-300™ are configured for a TCP-connection.
