• The encoder and decoder must have their own individual network settings (i.e,
LAN or WAN IP, etc.)
• The decoder must be configured properly in its “Connection Settings”
configuration screen to identify the appropriate encoder settings in order to
connect and stream the data from the encoder.
Note: If a connection to a KBC Decoder cannot be established in the field or on a
network, KBC recommends a test with the encoder directly connected to
its mate decoder using a crossover cable. If the two units are connected
via an unmanaged switch then the interface screen can be accessed from a
web browser in order to identify if a problem in configuration exists.
2.3.6 IP Utility Locating Software Tool
KBC Networks provides a software tool to search for the encoder and decoder IP
addresses. This tool is helpful for diagnostics and trouble-shooting if needed in the
installation. Visit KBC Networks’ website software tool at
www.kbcnetworks.com/downloads and select “Software”. The needed tool is the IP
Utility, the second link on the software downloads page. The other tools listed on the
page are for other KBC products which may not apply to your application.
