Getting Started
The DVI KVM over IP with Local DVI Output Sender and Receiver units can either be
connected over a Local Area Network (LAN) or they can be directly connected to one
another.
Using a Direct Connection
By default, the DVI KVM over IP with Local DVI Output is shipped in Auto IP mode.
In Auto IP mode, each Sender and Receiver unit is assigned a unique IP address of
169.254.x.x (where x is a number from 0 to 255). Auto IP mode is only used when
Sender and Receiver units are directly connected to one another. When connecting to a
network, the DVI KVM over IP with Local DVI Output must be set to DHCP mode or Static
IP mode. See Setting the IP Mode for more information.
1. Connect a CAT-5e (or better) cable from the LAN port on the Sender unit to the
LAN 1 port on the Receiver unit.
Although any LAN port on the Receiver unit can be used, using the LAN 1 port makes
it easy to identify which Ethernet cable is used to connect the Sender and Receiver
unit. LAN 2 and LAN 3 ports can then be used for connecting additional devices or
when daisy-chaining Receiver units.
2. Use the included DVI cable to connect the DVI source to the DVI In port on the
Sender unit.
