IP information

To set up the ISS for operation via its Ethernet port, you need to know and be able to change the IP address. One way to do this is via the IP address and hardware address screen.

To access the IP address and hardware address screen, press and hold the Color/Tint and Detail buttons while you apply power to the ISS (figure 3-19). When the ISS is finished intializing, it displays both addresses.

Press and hold both buttons

simultaneously while applying power.

If you need to change the IP address, use the Adjust knob to select the desired subfield. Rotate the Adjust knob to change the value. Repeat the adjustment for other subfields as required.

Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields separated by dots (periods). Each field can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to three digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.

If the local system administrators have not changed the value, the factory- specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.

The hardware address is hard-coded and cannot be changed.

Optimizing the Video

Perform the following steps, in sequence, after you have installed the ISS. This procedure will help you to configure the switcher for the best settings for your display environment. In a multi-screen environment, perform this procedure for each display.

See “Advanced Configuration menu”, earlier in this chapter, to select and output a test pattern and to select and output blue-only video.

See “Picture adjustments”, earlier in this chapter, to make adjustments to the picture quality.

See “User Presets menu”, earlier in this chapter, to save presets.
