Configure the VN-Matrix 200 Units as Encoders or Decoders

The Mode column on the Device List tab shows how each VN-Matrix 200 unit is configured using the following icons:

= Encoder

= Decoder

= Recorder or a playback device

= Undefined

NOTE:

The VN-Matrix Recorder is not documented here. The device list may show more devices than are in your

 

system. This is because the controller maintains a list of devices that have been used previously, but may not be

 

currently available. In this case, the IP address entry for that device is blank.

 

Configure the device as an encoder or decoder as follows:

1.In the device list double-click any of the list entries for a device to be configured. The following web page is displayed.

2.In the Device Setup box A shown above, click the create source B button to configure the device as an encoder or click the create display C button to configure the device as a decoder. See “Device Setup” on the Help tab for more configuration details.

3.After configuring the device, set the Mode to enable D and save the configuration by selecting the Save All tab E.

4.From the Display page of the decoder select an encoder source device. See the illustraion on the right.
