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
NOTE: The H.264 HD Video
Codec™ requires user authentication to enter the web interface.
Starting with application firmware version 261, the factory preset username
is “admin” and the
password is preset to the serial number of your unit (found on the barcode label on the back of
the unit). Please enter these settings when prompted to access the system.
NOTE: Versions of the application software earlier than 261 allow you to log in with the
username "root" with a password of "root". THIS HAS CHANGED STARTING WITH ALL
NEW UNITS SHIPPED WITH VERSION 261. Starting with version 261 of the application
software, you can NO LONGER LOG IN AS USER "root". Instead, you must log in as user
"admin". If you updated to version 261 from an earlier version, the password for user "admin" is
still the previously set password for the admin user, The default password for user "admin" was
"admin".
2) Click on
“Configure” under the “Network” menu on the left.
