c) Valid procedure for the two connection types
• Connect the IR transmission module (4) to the "Transmitter" (1) (labelled "IR Blaster"). Place the IR
transmission module (4) such that it lies in front of or near the IR receiver of your playback device, e.g., a
Blu-ray player, a gaming console or even a multimedia computer (8).
• Connect the IR transmission module (5) to the "Receiver" (2) (labelled "IR Receiver"). Place the IR receiver
(5) such that it lies in the transmission range of the IR remote control (11) that you are using.
• Connect the "Transmitter" (1) to your playback device (8) via an HDMI-compatible cable (6).
• Connect the "Receiver" (2) to your monitor/TV or projector (9) via an HDMI-compatible cable (7).
• Connect the "Transmitter" (1) and "Receiver" (2) with one wall plug transformer apiece (3) and plug each
wall plug transformer (3) into a power socket. The red power LEDs on the two devices light up.
• The LED "Link" on the "Transmitter" (1) and "Receiver" (2) lights up when the data connection between the
two devices is active (this can take a few seconds). During the search operation, an appropriate message
is displayed on the connected monitor/TV (e.g., "Searching TX" = Search for a transmitter or "Check
connection" = Check all cable connections).
• The LED "ACT" flashes when data is being transmitted between "Transmitter" (1) and "Receiver" (2).
The HDMI output port (13) can be used to connect to a display such as a TV or monitor with
HDMI inputs.
Operation
a) Setting the IP address with the help of a gigabit switch / router during operation
In this mode, it is important to know that the "Transmitter" uses the IP address 192.168.168.55 from the
factory, and the "Receiver" the IP address 192.168.168.56 (Subnet setting is 255.255.255.0).
These IP addresses can be changed in a web server integrated in both devices, if they conflict with other
devices in the network (an IP address may be assigned only once in the whole network).
As the default IP addresses (intentionally) are relatively unusual, these are normally not used
by any home network. Changing the IP addresses of "Transmitter" and "Receiver" is therefore
totally unnecessary in most cases!
Before trying to allocate new IP addresses when facing function problems, please search for the
error elsewhere.
If you are using e.g., a shorter or higher-value network cable, check the function with the help of
a direct connection of the two devices instead of operation via a switch / router!
If the IP addresses need to be changed, you will require a computer set to a fixed IP address of e.g.
192.168.168.11 (subnet 255.255.255.0).
Finally, enter the IP address of "Transmitter" or "Receiver" in the address line of the browser you are using
(current "Internet Explorer" of Windows recommended).
The corresponding Internet page of the web server of "Transmitter" or "Receiver" now appears in the internet
browser.
Click on "System" to set the IP address and the subnet screen now. Ensure that the first three numbers in
the IP address of the two devices are identical (e.g., 192.168.170). Consecutive numbers must be selected
in the two devices for the fourth number (e.g., 60 and 61), this enables a somewhat faster recognition during
start-up later.
The subnet mask should remain on 255.255.255.0. Finally, click on "Apply" to accept the data.
If you have changed one of the first three numbers of the IP addresses of "Transmitter" and
"Receiver", and want to call the web server of the devices with the computer again, you must
naturally also adjust the IP address of your computer beforehand!
More options are available under "Advanced Tools" ("Firmware Upgrade" = run new firmware; "Factory
Default" = Restore default; "System Restart" = Restart / Reset).
b) Measures in case of Image/Sound Errors
If errors occur, first use a shorter or higher-value network cable for testing.
If "Transmitter" and "Receiver" are not connected directly, but via a gigabit network, connect the devices
directly for testing. Alternatively, use a switch which prefers certain network ports during data transmission
and connect "Transmitter" and "Receiver" there.
Too high a load on your network (e.g., if data is transmitted simultaneously from a server, an NAS etc.) can
lead to visible image distortions or blackouts. If this happens frequently, you should connect the "Transmitter"
and "Receiver" directly and not through a switch. You could also change the topology of your network so that
data units do not conflict.
c) Other
• On the side of "Transmitter" and "Receiver" there is a small opening, behind which the reset button can be
found. By means of this button both units can be returned to their factory settings, for instance when you
have forgotten a manually entered IP address.
When the unit is in operation and the power LED is on, the reset button must be pressed for at least five
seconds. This resets both units (the "Transmitter" and the "Receiver").
Interrupt the current to the unit (unplug it) and then plug it back in again. Then all settings will be returned
to the factory settings.
• The image fed to the "Transmitter" is compressed and sent to the "Receiver". Due to the compression,
picture titles with hard contrasts (e.g., in the credits or menu of a film) suffer from so-called MPEG artefacts.
• Compression and data transmission take place in principle with a slight time lag.
• Please ensure that you do not inadvertently swap the IR receiver (labeled "IR Receiver") and the IR
transmission module (labeled "IR Blaster").
The IR receiver (labeled "IR Receiver") must be connected to the "Receiver"; the IR transmission module
(labeled "IR Blaster") to the "Transmitter".
• The HDMI playback device (e.g., Blu-ray player) must be connected to the "Transmitter"; the display
device (monitor / TV set or projector) to the "Receiver".
• If "Transmitter" and "Receiver" are operated in a gigabit network, the devices may take a few seconds to
detect each other.
Care and Cleaning
• Disconnect the product from the mains before each cleaning.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions as they can cause
damage to the housing and malfunctioning.
• Clean the product with a dry, fibre-free cloth.
Disposal
Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the household waste.
At the end of its service life, dispose of the product in accordance with applicable regulatory
guidelines.
You thus fulfill your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the environment.
