5. Installation and Conguration
5.1 Setup HDMI TX and RX
When connecting point to point, no need to congure TX and RX,
When connecting point to many, many to point and many to many, please make sure every TX and RX has unique
IP and MAC address, every TX has unique group ID.
Our this over IP Extender has been assigned unique default MAC address for every TX and RX, so you don’t have to
set the MAC for the units.
You just need to set the IP address and Group ID following bellowing steps.

User Manual

5.1.1 Setting the IP address
A). DHCP (Dynamic host conguration protocol)
If you are using a Switch that supports DHCP, please enable DHCP so that the Switch will assign an unique IP for TX
and RX, and you don’t need to change the IP for the units manually.
B). Set the IP via web browser
If you are using a Switch that doesn’t support DHCP, please change the default IP for TX (192.168.1.11) and RX
(192.168.1.12) manually.
A HTTP server is embedded in each TX and RX. You can set up IP address for HDMI Extender via web browser
The default IP address of the TX is 192.168.1.11, user name: admin, password: admin
The default IP address of the RX is 192.168.1.12
Operating Instructions
Step 1:
Make sure the Transmitter and PC are in the same domain.
Access the Network Setting Control Panel in Windows and locate your Lan connection. Under Windows 7, this
can be done by clicking Start > Control Panel > Network Sharing center > Change adapter settings > Properties
>Internet Protocol Version4 (TCP/IPv4). Change the IP address eld to 192.168.1.1 (0-255). After that press „OK“
to save the conguration.
NOTE: The PC and TX/RX should be in the same domain.
The IP address of PC should be dierent from the IP address of TX and RX.
Step 2:
Use an Ethernet Cable to connect the PC (or laptop) and the extender. the power LED for the extender is red and
the green status is blinking.
Step 3:
Login in IE: 192.168.1.11 (default IP for TX) or 192.168.1.12(default IP for RX), You can setup IP address for the TX
and RX. TX requires user name: admin and password: admin
Please set IP address for each TX and each RX, IP: 192.168.1.XX (XX:1-255. all IP address for TX and RX must be
dierent and can’t be same as the PC’s address.)

5.2 Preparing the switch
When doing point to many and many to many, it requires a switch to distribute the sources. We suggest you use
the Switch that supports IGMP and DHCP. IGMP feature help to manage the group ID which is related to switch
the sources; DHCP allow the switch to assign an IP for TX and RX automatically, please enable DHCP of the
switch.
