Chapter 3 Network Setup
The Ethernet port on the back panel of the SE-650 allows the user to import Still/Clip image or User
memory using the Switcher Image Import/Export software discussed in Chapter 5. This chapter
discusses direct connection between the SE-650 and your Windows computer as well as the remote
setup in detail. Please note that the Switcher Image Import/Export software must be installed on
your Windows-based computer before using this feature.
3.1 Switcher Setup with a Windows Computer
When new from the factory the SE-650 will initially have a static IP address of 192.168.1.101. The
unit can be directly connected to a Windows-based computer using an RJ-45 ethernet cable. The
following set up should allow you to initially configure the unit before moving it to an existing DHCP /
LAN network.
•An RJ-45 Ethernet cable.
•Windows 7/8/10 laptop or PC.
•The Datavideo Switcher Image
Import/Export software.
Instructions
1. First connect the SE-650 and the Windows computer together using an RJ-45 ethernet cable.
2. Turn on the Windows computer and set it to static IP setup within the Windows Network and
Sharing Centre. In our example below the computer is given the following IP settings so that the
computer matches the same IP range as the switcher.
3. Now install the Switcher Image Import/Export software to the computer.

19
3.2 Installing the Switcher Image Import/Export software to a Windows Computer
The SE-650 can be connected to a simple IP network and accessed using Windows-based software. If
you have not already set up the SE-650 with a computer then please follow the instructions in the
previous section.
Please download the latest software from the Datavideo SE-650 web page. See: www.datavideo.com
The install executable file [.msi] will be called SwitcherImageImEx_vXXXX.msi
The vXXXX represents the latest version number.
Double click this .msi file then follow the on screen install wizard prompts.
Once installed launch the Switcher Image Import/Export software.
The Switcher Image Import/Export software has a built-in IP finder, which is designed for PC with
multiple Ethernet cards or DHCP network environment. Please note IP finder can only find devices
that are on the same network domain as the PC. If you cannot remember your device IP, please press
the RESET button to restore the default network settings. Upon launch of the Switcher Image
Import/Export software, you will be prompted to select one Ethernet Interface Card.
Once selected, click OK to start the scanning process.
Note: Please make sure the selected interface card is on the same network domain as the SE-650
device.
Once the SE-650 device is found, the software will connect with the switcher hardware over the IP set
up described in the previous section. If the connection is successfully established, on the software
user interface as shown in the diagram below, the Connect Status will show “Connected” (will display
Not Connected if disconnected).

20
3.2.1 Router Based DHCP Setup
The computer software can also access the SE-650 over an existing TCP/IP LAN type network. In order
to initially set up the SE-650, you may need the assistance of your local I.T. specialist to help with the
network settings. To help guide you, we have included a simplified network setup example below,
further advice may be available through your dealer locally or your Datavideo regional office.
To create this simple dedicated SE-650 IP network you will need:
•An IP router which can assign/give IP
addresses.
•Two RJ-45 patch leads.
•Windows 7/8/10 laptop or PC.
•The IP router Administrator login and
password.
•The Datavideo Switcher
Image Import/Export
software.
