Installation Faceplate Removal and Assembly The AT-HDVS-210H-TX-WP includes an optional black faceplate and wallplate. Removal of the faceplate requires that the AT-HDVS-210H-TX-WP be disassembled from the electrical box or mud ring. 1. Remove the wall plate from the electrical box and slide out the AT-HDVS-210H-TX-WP assembly, as shown. It is recommended that the Ethernet cable, connected to the HDBaseT OUT port, be disconnected from the unit, to allow for easy installation of the faceplate.
Installation IP Configuration The AT-HDVS-210H-TX-WP is shipped with DHCP enabled. Once connected to a network, the DHCP server (if available), will automatically assign an IP address to the unit. Use an IP scanner, along with the MAC address on the back of the unit, to identify both the unit and its IP address on the network. If a static IP address is desired, the unit can be switched to static IP mode. Use one of the following procedures to switch between DHCP and static IP mode.
Installation Setting the IP Address Using Commands Use the IPStatic and IPDHCP commands to switch between DHCP and IP mode through RS-232 or Telnet. Refer to API documentation for more information. All commands and their arguments are case-sensitive. • Setting static IP mode 1. Connect to the AT-HDVS-210H-TX-WP using RS-232 or Telnet. 2. At the command line, execute the IPDHCP command using the off argument, as shown. IPDHCP off 3. Execute the IPStatic command.
Installation Resetting to Factory-Default Settings Resetting the AT-HDVS-210H-TX-WP requires that the front faceplate be removed.
