page | 16 Chapter Page Title 5. T o upgrade the rmware to a limited number of channels, refer to Upgrading the Firmware for more information..
page | 17 Setting the IP Mode The VGA KVM over IP can be set to Auto IP , DHCP , or Static IP mode. By default, the VGA KVM over IP is shipped in Auto IP mode. 1. Access the Web interface by entering the IP address of the desired Sender or Receiver unit.
page | 18 Setting the Video Channel In order a Sender and Receiver unit to communicate with one another , they must both be set to the same channel. This is similar to changing the channel on a cable or satellite box in order to view a different program.
page | 19 Enabling or Disabling Video over IP This feature is useful for masking video. Disabling the video on the Sender unit will mask the video on all connected Receiver units ( multicast mode only). T o mask the video on selected Receiver units, disable the video on the desired Receiver units.
page | 20 Operating the VGA KVM over IP Conguring Unicast Mode The term unicast is used to describe a conguration where information is sent from one point to another point. It is possible to have multiple Sender and Receiver units connected in a system.
page | 21 3. Click the Unicast button under the Network Mode group. When selected, the Unicast button will be highlighted in blue. 4. Click the Save button in the lower-right corner of the Network Mode group.
page | 22 Switching between Sender units in Unicast mode When multiple Sender and Receiver unit are used in unicast mode, the VGA KVM over IP behaves as a switcher . In unicast mode, a Sender unit can communicate with only one Receiver unit at a time.
page | 23 Operating the VGA KVM over IP Figure 2.3 - Unicast mode: Receiver unit R1 is now connected to Sender unit S1. Note that each of the Sender units in Figure 2.
page | 24 Operating the VGA KVM over IP In order to solve the problem, in Figure 2.4, we would need to make sure that each of the Sender units is set to a unique channel number . When using unicast mode, each of the Sender units must be assigned a unique channel and should never be changed.
page | 25 Conguring Multicast Mode The term multicast is used to describe a conguration where information is sent from one or more points to a set of other points.
page | 26 3. Click the Multicast button under the Network Mode group. When selected, the Multicast button will be highlighted in blue. 4. Click the Save button in the lower-right corner of the Network Mode group.
page | 27 The VGA KVM over IP supports RS-232 pass-through, allowing the control of remote RS-232 devices. The Sender and Receiver unit which are being used to pass-through the RS-232 data must be set to the same baud rate as the RS-232 host and client.
page | 28 1. Access the Web interface for the Sender unit. 2. Click the Functions tab. 3. Locate the Serial over IP group and change the RS-232 settings to match the settings of the RS-232 device that is being used. In this case, we need to use the settings from T able 2.
page | 29 RS-232 under Unicast Mode In unicast mode , a Sender unit will be able to communicate with only one Receiver unit at a time. Figure 2.7 - In unicast mode, the host can talk to only one RS-232 device at a time. RS-232 under Multicast Mode In multicast mode, a Sender unit can communicate with multiple Receiver units simultaneously .
page | 30 USB under Unicast Mode When connecting USB devices to the VGA KVM over IP , the functionality is similar to that of video and RS-232. As an example, we will start with our original diagram and connect a computer to Sender unit S2 and a keyboard and mouse device to Receiver unit R2.
page | 31 Operating the VGA KVM over IP 4. Locate the USB over IP group and make sure the Enable USB over IP box is checked. This is the default setting. 5. In unicast mode, the Operation Mode is automatically set to Active on link and cannot be changed.
page | 32 USB under Multicast Mode When connecting USB devices to the VGA KVM over IP , the functionality is similar to that of video and RS-232. There are two USB modes available in multicast mode: Active per request mode and Active on link mode.
page | 33 In multicast mode, the Operation Mode for both Sender and Receiver units are automatically set to Active per request mode. Under Active per request mode, multiple USB devices may be present on one or more Receiver units. However , only one Receiver unit can have USB control at a time.
page | 34 Assigning USB control under Active per request mode 1. Press and hold the Switch button on the desired Receiver unit, for at least two seconds. In this example, we will depress the Switch button on Receiver unit R1. 2. The message “Starting USB” will appear on the connected display .
page | 35 Active on link mode Under Active on link mode, a maximum of four USB devices can be used within a system. In the diagram, on the previous page, the system is already using the maximum number of USB devices (2 USB devices per Receiver).
page | 36 The VGA KVM over IP features EDID Management. Before the source can send video (and/or audio) data, the source device (connected to each Sender unit) reads the EDID (Extended Display Identication Data) from the displays which are connected to each Receiver unit.
page | 37 Using the Downstream EDID By default, the (downstream) EDID from the display , connected to the Receiver unit, is used. If the internal EDID is being used (see Using the Internal VGA EDID ), then use the following procedure to revert to the downstream EDID.
page | 38 Audio works in both unicast and multicast modes. The only dif ference between the two modes is that the Mic In jack is automatically disabled, on all Receiver units, in multicast mode. T o illustrate how audio works with the VGA KVM over IP , we will set up a microphone and some speakers.
page | 39 4. Finally , we’ll connect a set of powered computer speakers to the Line Out jack on the Receiver unit. In the diagram below , the mouse and keyboard USB devices have been removed from Sender unit S2 and Receiver unit R2, for purposes of clarity .
page | 40 Figure 2.13 - The Mic In jack, on all Receiver units, is automatically disabled in multicast mode. Using VGA Sources The VGA KVM over IP will not pass content from HDCP sources such as Blu-ray players and Playstation® console systems. If a 3.
