Network configuration using the console  

Before connecting your encoder to the broadcast chain, check network parameters and modify them if needed.  
Connect a PC to the COM0 serial port on the front panel of the encoder and the power supply cable to the rear 
panel. 

 

Connect the encoder to the mains and start it. 
 
On your PC, open a terminal session (with Hyperterminal, Tera Term…).  
 

If you don ‘t know which COM port to select for your terminal session: 

Press the Windows and Pause keys at the same time and select 

Hardware 

or

 System 

and

 Device manager 

(depending on the 

Windows version).  
Click on “Ports (COM & LPT)” to list physical and virtual COM ports installed on the PC and select “USB-to-serial” to view the 
COM port used for your connection to the encoder. This is the port you will need to select for your terminal session. 

 
Enter the following parameters: 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.  
Once connected to your encoder, enter the command: 

IP? 

Press the <Enter> key and the encoder sends the current IP address, for instance: 

192.168.0.1 

To set a new IP address, enter the command and press the <Enter> key: 

IP=x.x.x.x 

Where x.x.x.x is the new IP address. 
You might in the same way check and reset the network mask (press the <Enter> key after each command): 

MASK? 
MASK=x.x.x.x 

the gateway: 

GATEWAY? 

GATEWAY=x.x.x.x 

You will then need to restart the encoder to apply the new network parameters: 

RESET
