1.2 Network Setup

The QVPRO includes two gigabit Ethernet ports, labeled LAN1 and LAN2. The QVENC and

QVDEC only have one gigabit Ethernet port, LAN1. Although on the QVDEC and QVENC, you can

add a second Ethernet interface by attaching an Apple USB Ethernet Adapter Part Number:

MC704ZM/A.The factory preset IP address for LAN1 is 192.168.1.23 and for LAN2 is

192.168.10.23. Both ports have a Netmask of 255.255.255.0. By default, only LAN1 can send or

receive multicast packets, but you can change this in the Network/Multicast menu. You can

download and run our CodecManager application to determine or change the IP settings, even

when the IP address has been reset to an unknown address. Please refer to Section 9 of this

manual for configuration using the CodecManager application.

WARNING: If you change the IP addresses of LAN1 or LAN2, you must make certain that they

remain on different subnets. Failure to keep the IP addresses of LAN1 and LAN2 on separate

subnets will confuse the operating system routing, and result in sporadic access or

possibly complete loss of network connectivity.

The QVENC, QVDEC, and QVPRO can also be reconfigured through a web browser when you

know the IP address. For a new unit or one having the factory default IP settings, follow the steps

below to reconfigure the network settings through a web browser on a computer connected to the

same subnet as the Codec.

1) Point your web browser to http://192.168.1.23
