Infinity browser-based configuration utility
The browser-based configuration utility within all TX and RX units requires
a network connection between the ALIF unit and a computer on the same
network. The configuration utility allows you to perform all of the following
functions:
• View/edittheIPnetworkaddressandnetmask,
• CongureseparateIPnetworkaddressesforvideo,audioandUSB,
• Conguremulticastsettings(onRXunits),
• Congurevideobandwidthsettings(onTXunits),
• Viewthecurrentvideooutput(onTXunits),
• Performarmwareupgrade,
• Performafactoryreset.
To connect a computer system for browser-based configuration
1 ConnectasuitablenetworkcabletotheEthernetportonthefrontpanelof
the ALIF unit.
2 Connecttheotherendofthelinkcabletoyournetwork.
3 Similarly, link your computer to the same network. Note: A Gigabit
connection is not essential for configuration purposes.
4 If not already switched on, power up your computer and the ALIF unit. You
are now ready to use the browser-based configuration utility.
To access the browser-based configuration utility
1 TemporarilyconnecttheALIFunitandacomputerviaanetwork,as
discussed opposite.
2 RunawebbrowseronyourcomputerandentertheIPaddressoftheALIF
unit, e.g. http://169.254.1.33
The default settings are as follows:
• TX units - IP address: 169.254.1.33
• RX units - IP address: 169.254.1.32
Where the address of a unit is not known perform a manual factory reset
to restore the default address.
The opening page of the ALIF configuration utility will be displayed and you
can now use on-screen help for details of the functions that you wish to
perform.
