1.1 About this product
MVDS stands for "Multicast Video Distribution System", which allows to distribute video
or audio data from Player (e.g. PC, DVD player, etc) to Display (e.g. TV, Monitor, etc) by IP
Multicast.
The MVDS consists of transmitter and receiver(s). The transmitter is connected to Player
and the receiver(s) are connected to Display. Transmitter encodes the signal output
from the Player (e.g. video, audio, etc.) and distributes its codec data to receiver(s) in
real time, and the receiver(s) decodes and outputs it on Display.

2.Installation
2.2 Configure this product
When the cable connections and power on are completed, configure the network
settings and adjust the screen images for the MVDS transmitter and receivers.
2.2.1 Assign IP address
To simplify the configuration process, the MVDS transmitter and receivers support
automatic configuration of the IP address. By default, they attempt to load an
IP address via DHCP when powered on. If no DHCP server is found, then the
transmitter and each of the receivers are loaded with a random IP address of
169.254.xxx.xxx. Note that the same IP address is used for both the wireless and
wired networking functionality.
- If you are using the automatic configuration process, you may skip to the next section.
Note
If you prefer, you can use Admin Manager to manually assign an IP address for the
MVDS transmitter and for each MVDS receiver:
1. First assign a static IP address to the PC that you are using for setup.
(Example: 10.10.10.10)
When you run the Admin Manager program, a list of the available MVDS
transmitters (model X-1T) and receivers (X-1R) will appear on the main Admin
Manager screen.
2.

MVDS X-1 User's Guide
3. Select the MVDS transmitter or receiver that you wish to configure. From the
top menu, click Configuration - Set IP address.
4. Configure a unique IP address that is not used by other network devices.
(Example: 10.3.0.1)
5. Repeat this process and enter a unique IP address into each of the MVDS
transmitters and receivers.

2.Installation
2.2.2 Configure via Web browser
After you have assigned the IP address for each MVDS transmitter and receiver,
you can configure these devices using a PC with any standard web browser. For
each MVDS transmitter and receiver, access the Web page using the IP address
you have configured into the device. By default the user name is "root" and no
password is set.
To view the IP address of the transmitter and the receivers, you can use the Admin
Manager program.
- When an IP address is set to the transmitter, it can be seen on the front panel.
Note
- Please note that the PC must be configured with a unique IP address that is compatible with
the IP addresses used in the transmitters and receivers (for example, if the transmitter has an
TIP
IP address of 169.254.3.111, the PC could have an IP address of 169.254.3.1, assuming that
this address is not used by any of the receivers).

MVDS X-1 User's Guide
Host name / Password configuration
Configure Host Name and Password.
- Be sure to set a password, especially if you are using the MVDS with a public network.
TIP
In factory default, the last six hexadecimal digits of the Ethernet MAC address is
used as the host name of the MVDS transmitter and receiver(s). You can change
the host name if desired, but make sure that is a unique name.
In some cases, it is desirable to change this host name on the receivers using hardware switches
(for example, to allow receivers to be deployed with preconfigured host name). The MVDS
receiver has internal rotary switches that can be used to set a hexadecimal value for the host
name (note that you must remove the cover of the enclosure to access these switches). The
right switch is for the upper byte and left switch is for the lower byte of the host name. When set
to 01-3E, the value is applied and set as host name at the time of power on. When set to 00, the
value configured in the Web page is applied as the host name.
Value (hexadecimal)
00h
Description
This value is not used as a host name. The receiver will run with the host
name configured through Web browser or TELNET.
01h - 3Eh
3Fh - FFh
The string, "01" to "3E", will be used as a host name. This host name will be stored
(overwritten) in internal memory as a setting value. Therefore, even if "00" is set
again, the host name will not be reset to the previous name.
Do not set these values as it may cause unstable operation. (As only 6bit out of
8bit can be recognized, the same host name may be used twice.)

2.Installation
Network configuration
* Required for both Transmitter and Receivers
Configure the IP address and wireless settings. Select Network under
Configuration in the Web page.
- The MVDS transmitter and receivers operate without the need to manually configure an IP
address as they supports Auto IP function.
TIP
- It is impossible to broadcast a movie across a router.
<DHCP, IP, Subnet, Gateway>
Configure these settings according to your network environment (by default,
DHCP and the Auto IP function are enabled).
<Wireless>
Select Enable for the Wireless Interface. Select the options for Wireless Mode,
SSID, WEP, etc. appropriate for your environment.
- Be sure to use WEP security, especially if you are using MVDS with a public wireless network.

Vertical convergence angle and minimum distance
Every 'high-gain' antenna has vertical and horizontal selectiveness. The narrower
the coverage, the higher the possible gain. However, this selectiveness also
creates 'blind spot' in close range, especially if antennas located in different

2.Installation
Vertical coverage and Line-of-sight
From a vertical convergence point of view, less height difference is better to
minimize distance problems. However, it also creates more Non-Line-Of-Sight
(NLOS) problems.
In this diagram, the other side of the office building could not covered by single
TX antenna, so another TX set needs to be provided if there are other stations
there.
