HHD264 Video over LAN - Quick Installation Guide
How to setup the HHD 264 on the network?
Point to Point:
Example of Point-to-Point
In a DHCP network, there is no need to do any IP configuration if it is a Point-to-Point (No Switch
or Router involved in the setup). The network will assign automatically all the addresses.
If it’s a static network, then assign unique IP addresses to the units. Simply connect the sender
(TX) and receiver (RX) using a CAT 5e/6 cable and make sure they are in the same group.
Many- to-Many:
Requires a Gigabit IGMP Network Switch.
Example of Matrix setup (many sources to many displays)
If the Switch Supports DHCP:
If your switch supports DHCP, there is no need to worry about any IP configuration. Connect all
the senders and receivers to the switch and install the latest Windows GUI software (Hall
Research’s DVMMT V1.3 as of Feb-2017).
Connect the PC to the switch and run the GUI to scan all the devices.
Note:
To install DVMMT, your PC requires .NET 3.5 SP1, which can be downloaded
from Microsoft website or download it from Hall Research from the following
link. (http://www.hallresearch.com/files/gui_downloads/dotnetfx35.exe ).

If the Switch does not support DHCP:
If the switch does not support DHCP, you have to configure each unit to a static IP one by one by
using the PC GUI.
As we know, all the devices on the network will have an IP. The HHD264-S and HHD264-R comes
with a default IP address 192.168.1.11 and 192.168.1.12 with subnet mask "255.255.255.0"
respectively.
If you think the unit is not responding, just reset using factory reset button on the unit by
holding it for 10 seconds. This will restore the IP to the default settings.
To configure the HHD264 to a static IP, you have to know its current IP that can be found in two
ways.
One way of knowing this is by using an On Screen Display (OSD) by connecting the
receiver (RX) to a display (480p minimum).
The other way is by using the Windows GUI and configuring the PC’s IP to the HHD264’s
default network (Recommended).
Know the IP address Using OSD
Connect the receiver (RX) to a display and know the IP address from the OSD displayed.
To know the sender’s IP, connect it to the RX using a CAT5e/6 cable directly without
using a switch. Know the sender’s IP address from the OSD displayed.
To increase the time the OSD appears on screen, set the TX and RX to a different group.
Configuring Static IP addresses using Windows GUI (Recommended)
Connect the receiver to the PC using a network switch.
Setting the IP address of the PC to be in the same network subnet as HHD264 is a
key factor to find the devices on the network.
Change the IPv4 address of the PC to a Class-C static address ( 192.168.x.xxx) with
subnet mask (255.255.255.0).
Example:
Note:
HHD264 must be connected one by one while setting the Static IP configuration
as all the units have the same default IP, connecting more than one could result in
IP conflict.
All the devices in the network must have a unique IP address. Two senders cannot
be in the same group.
To be in the same channel, receivers must be in the same group as the sender.
No two transmitters can be in a same group.
Receivers should in the same group as transmitter.

Open the Windows GUI and scan the network. Double click on the device you found and
change its IP to a required static IP.
Make sure you allow access to the Windows GUI through the Firewall when you launch
it for the first time. (Refer HHD-264 FAQs for more info)
Connect another HHD264 and repeat the process, until you have changed all the devices
to static addresses.
