Remote Operation

The DSR-6400 Series decoder can be operated remotely from a web browser. When the decoder is contacted via an HTTP session from a computer, the decoder’s web server responds to the HTTP session with a login dialog box that requires the user to login with user name and password. Once the login is successful, the decoder’s web server then presents the unit’s home page to the browser.

Some of the IRD configuration settings and control inputs that are accessible through HTTP include:

•Virtual channel and audio language selection

•Status and device information (e.g., signal strength, alarms, unit address)

•Soft reset (AC power cycle)

•Settings for acquiring a satellite signal (e.g., transponder frequency, input port)

•Video and audio output customizations

•Alarm triggers

•ASI and Ethernet output customizations

•Complete Transcoder configuration (Read-only when set by uplink programmer)

To configure the DSR-6400 Series unit for remote operation

1.Contact your network administrator for the IP Subnet Mask address, unique IP address, and default gateway address to assign to this decoder.

Caution: By default, all DSR-6400 series units have the same IP address. To use the unit’s remote operation, each unit on the subnet must be assigned a unique IP address. Failure to assign a unique IP address to each unit on the subnet will result in loss of connectivity.

2.To configure the decoder, use the decoder’s arrow buttons on the front panel to perform the following procedures:

•10/100 IP Address Menu, page 58

•10/100 Subnet Mask Menu, page 59

•10/100 Default Gateway Menu, page 59

3.Use an RJ-45 cable to connect the decoder’s Ethernet 10/100 port to the subnet that will be used to operate the decoder remotely.
