1. Introduction
The SC08.MX600 is an over IP solution for high definition signal extension over copper cables. This solution
leverages 1G Ethernet switches and enables signal management of 1080p/60Hz (4:4:4) signals with virtually zero
frame latency. Bi-Directional RS232, Infra-Red, and embedded audio are also supported.
The video wall mode allows a single video source to be stretched across multiple displays, each receiver crops and
scales the region of interest according to its position in the wall matrix. The receivers are locked to the source and
thus to each other with no frame rate conversion.
The SC08.MX600 is managed and controlled using RS232 and IP control codes over the network using an integrated
web browser or from virtually any third party controller, including those from AMX, Crestron, Control4.
2. Features
●Uses H.265 Encoding
●1080p/60Hz, 4:4:4
●Point-to-Point, Point-to-Multipoint & Multipoint-to-Multipoint
●Video Wall Functions
●Uses 1G Ethernet
●Matrix Routes - IR, RS232, USB
●PoE (Power over Ethernet)
●Control: RS232, TCP/IP, Web Interface

9. Preparing your PC
a. If your network includes a router or DHCP server, IP addresses will be issued automatically and therefore
your PC settings should be set to “Obtain an IP address automatically”.
b. If no router or DHCP server is used, all the devices including the PC will need individual static IP
addresses.
9.1. Setting PC for DHCP
1. On your PC, go to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network Connections > Local Area
Connections, right click on it and choose Properties.
2. In the “Local Area Connections Properties” dialogue box, double click Internet Protocol Version 4
(TCP/Ipv4).
3. In the “Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/Ipv4) Properties” dialogue box, select “Obtain an IP address
automatically”.
4. Click “OK”.
5. Your PC is now ready to accept an IP address issued by the router or DHCP server.

10. Setting Device IP Addresses
The IP address of your PC is now set to 169.254.23.30, therefore all other products on the LAN should be in the same
network segment. IP: 169.254.23.XX and Subnet: 255.255.255.0.
The default IP addresses for the transmitter and receiver is 169.254.23.10 and 169.254.23.11 respectively. When changing
the addresses we recommend using the following IP address range.
●Transmitter 1 = 169.254.23.51
●Transmitter 2 = 169.254.23.52
●Transmitter 3 = 169.254.23.53
●Continue with 54, 55 etc.
●Receiver 1 = 169.254.23.101
●Receiver 1 = 169.254.23.102
●Receiver 1 = 169.254.23.103
●Continue with 104, 104 etc.
Important: Do not use the IP addresses assigned to the PC (169.254.23.30) or the SC08.CTL100 controller (169.254.23.100)
as this will cause network problems.
10.1. Setting Transmitter IP Address
1. Connect the CAT5e/6 Ethernet cable to the transmitter “LAN” port and the PC or network switch. If the switch
has the facility to provide PoE the transmitter will power.
2. After initialising the blue LED will begin to flash.
3. Open your Web Browser and enter the transmitters default IP address (169.254.23.10).
4. In the Login dialogue box enter the user name “admin” and password “admin”.
