1. Introduction

WyreStorm ® NetworkHD TM is a professional grade

JPEG2000 HD over IP extender and control system enabling the distribution of HDMI over a dedicated

IP network switch with powerful KVM and video wall functionality designed for commercial AV applications.

Comprising of an NHD-IP-RX receiver and NHD-IP-TX transmitter extender set together with an NHD-IP-CTL controller, the NHD-IP-RX and NHD-IP-TX extenders facilitate the transmission of an HDMI 1.3 signal (including Full HD

1080p video with 2.1 audio) to one or more HDMI LCD/LED panels or digital projectors over standard Ethernet (Cat5e/6/7) infrastructure.

The modular system architecture of NetworkHD removes the limitations of a traditional fixed platform I/O matrix system without compromising quality or reliability, whilst offering significant cost savings when designing large scale infrastructure systems as well as integrating other features such as Video Wall processing.

Functioning on basic Layer2 SMART switches, NetworkHD does not require advanced integrator Network experience to install, nor does it require a managed network switch with VLAN configured, making it one of the simplest HDMI over IP systems available.

Configuring network switches takes minutes and even the largest distributions can be quickly and easily configured and expanded.

Adding transmitters and receivers as required to enable the system to grow with the needs of the application. NetworkHD uses Bonjour technology to automatically discover system components to make setup a breeze.

The NHD-IP-CTL controller creates a simple, single interface to configure, manage and control the entire NetworkHD system, whilst also capable of fully integrating with WyreStorm Enado control interface for the highest quality total HD distribution and control solution over a network.

Attention Ensure good quality cabling is used throughout your system, with no electrical interference, bends, twists, kinks, or other issues that may interfere with signal transmission, including the use of patch panels or wall outlets. Cable connectors should also be in good condition and correctly terminated to required standards, with straight cable runs used where possible and plugs securely connected to ports without straining port enclosures.

The presence of any of these factors in your system can jeopardize successful signal distribution and should be eliminated wherever possible.

9. Switch Settings & Requirements

NetworkHD can be operated with any Layer 2 Gigabit Smart Switch provided the overall switching capacity or backplane capacity of the switch meets the requirements of the number of transmitters/receivers you have on your network.

Each NHD-IP-TX transmitter will produce up to 150Mb/s of data > therefore 10 x transmitters will require 10 x 150Mb/s

= 1.5 Gbps.

Attention If you are unsure about the network requirements for your NetworkHD system please contact

WyreStorm or your local WyreStorm distribution partner for support.

WyreStorm are not liable if network bandwidth is to blame for poor performance from the NetworkHD system.

NetworkHD does not require multiple VLANs to be configured. Third-party controllers communicate directly with the

NetworkHD NHD-IP-CTL rather the Ethernet switch.

Visit wyrestorm.com

for guides on detailed switch configuration and recommended switch suggestions for different sized NetworkHD systems.

viii. Configuration File Management

When closing the configuration tool, the software will save a configuration file default.hoi

in the software installation directory. On next loading the software will automatically read the configuration file.

For windows XP, it is saved in C:\Documents and Settings\#user#\Local Settings\Application Data\HDMIoverIP

For Windows Vista or later, it is saved in C:\Users\#user#\AppData\Local\HDMIoverIP

Attention #user# means the current user of the operating system.

Attention Do not modify or delete the default.hoi. file or the software will report an error and refuse to initialize.

In addition, you can click Export to save the configuration file to a specified directory, and click Import to import the configuration file from this directory.

The log records the tool operation and device communication information, which can be used for troubleshooting.

12. Troubleshooting

1) If NetworkHD software console cannot find any devices on the network - If following the network settings advice in sections 10 through 14 above does not yield any devices, check your Windows Firewall settings. Using Windows 7 as an example (Other versions of Windows may differ):

• Click Start menu, go to Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Firewall > Allowed Programs , highlight

HDMI over IP Console , check Home/Work (Private) and Public.

• Check the IP address and subnet mask of the PC. The network segment for IP address is 169.254.x.x and the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0

, the PC and Transmitter/Receiver should be in the same network segment. (See section 11.)

• Check the settings of the switch match those in the Switch Configuration Guides available from wyrestorm.com

7) If the RX device continuously reboots…

The RX is set to DHCP but it cannot find a DHCP server. You must connect the unit to a DHCP server so that it can finishing initialising. You will then be able to change the IP settings.
