Clicking on the Search button will display a list of eHold players connected to the
same subnet as the server PC. To add a listed player to the account, just double click
the entry. After the player is added to the account, you may then use the Config
button to configure it if necessary. Note that eHold players located outside the
subnet are not searchable with this button.
Values of the HTTP Port, the FIFO Port and the Digital IO Port should usually be left
unchanged. If there are multiple players (accounts) using the same public static IP
address behind the same router, then these software ports need to be changed to
unique values for each players. For example,
1st Player: HTTP = 80, FIFO = 100, Digital IO = 102
2nd Player: HTTP = 5000, FIFO = 5001, Digital IO = 5002 (changed from default)
The above software ports are used by the server program to access each player. On
the other hand, each player has the same set of hardware ports with the following
default values (changable in the device configuration page):
HTTP = 80, FIFO = 100, Digital IO = 102
Therefore, the port forwarding (if firewall is enabled in the router) should be:
1st Player: (public IP) 80 to (private IP) 80, 100 to 100, 102 to 102
2nd Player: (public IP) 5000 to (private IP) 80, 5001 to 100, 5002 to 102
Each player should have a unique private IP address - see IP Address Configuration
under Hardware Installation.
Note the HTTP port is used to access the device configuration page only. Do not
forward the HTTP port unless you want to access the device configuration page via
the Internet.
If you plan to send the same file to a group of accounts on a regular basis, you
should give them similar names such as “ABC #1”, “ABC #2” and etc. You will then
be able to quickly select these accounts using the View/Filter command.
Edit Accounts
You may select one or more accounts for editing. Select multiple accounts by shift-
clicking (range) and/or control-clicking (individual).
Duplicate Accounts
This command helps to create multiple accounts with similar data. After setting up
the first account manually, you may duplicate it and edit the duplicate to create a
new account. All fields will be duplicated except the IP address. Remember to change
the account name so that it’s unique.
Delete Accounts
You may select one or more accounts for deletion. Select multiple accounts by shift-
clicking (range) and/or control-clicking (individual).
