Mini Video Encoder Hardware Manual
Manually adjust the IP addresses of multiple encoders:
If there are more than 1 encoder to be used in the same local area network and there is no DHCP
server to assign unique IP addresses to each of them, all of the encoders would then have the
initial IP address of
192.168.0.100
, which is not a proper situation for network devices
– all the IP
addresses have to be different from each other. The easiest way to assign encoders the IP
addresses is by using
IP Utility
:
With the procedure shown above, all the encoders will have unique IP addresses, starting from
192.168.0.101. In case there are 20 encoders selected, the last one of the encoders would have
the IP 192.168.0.120.
Later, by pressing the
“Refresh” button of the IP Utility, you will be able to see the list of encoders
with their new IP addresses.
Please note that it is also possible to change the IP addresses manually by using the Web
browser. In such case, please plug in only one encoder at a time, and change its IP address by
using the Web browser before plugging in the next one. This way, the Web browser will not be
confused about two devices having the same IP address at the same time.
