The Display Configuration page allows users to select the resolution and the output that the video will be displayed on. Either HDMI or Analog (if equipped) can be selected under the Display Output Selection. Only one display (HDMI or NTSC/PAL analog) can be configured to operate at a time. The display output configuration only needs to be done when changing the desired output settings. Otherwise, previously configured settings are persistent while switching the incoming video stream. Display Configuration Page 4.2.2.1 HDMI Configuration HDMI output is a standard interface and is compatible with most modern HD televisions. The decoder supports full HD decoding up to 1080p. The decoder uses HDMI version 1.4 and is backward compatible. Display Output Resolution: Allows users to set the desired output resolution of the HDMI interface. This output is set regardless of the input resolution and frame rate of the video. The available output resolutions are: • • • 1080p30 (1920x1080 at 30 fps) 720p30 (1280x720 at 30 fps) 480i30 (720x480 at 30 fps) Video Aspect Ratio: Two settings that affect the output of the video are available: • • Scale to Display. Forced Aspect Ratio. Scale to Display: Selecting Scale to Display will scale the input video stream to fit the display’s selected output regardless of the input video stream’s resolution. For example, if an input video stream’s resolution is 720x480 and the display is configured for 720p, the video will be scaled from 720x480 up to 720p and sent to the display. This will “stretch” the video to fit this format. Forced Aspect Ratio: Selecting Forced Aspect Ratio will scale the video to fit the height of the display, but 6X-1108B 15 the aspect ratio of the input video stream will be preserved. This will display a black bar on both sides of the video as indicated below: Forced Aspect vs. Scaled Ratio To configure the decoder for HDMI output follow these steps: • • • • • Click Video. Click Display Configuration. Under Display Output Selection, click HDMI. Under Display Output Resolution in the HDMI Display section, choose resolution. Click Save Display Settings. 4.2.2.2 Analog Configuration The analog output supports both NTSC and PAL formats. To configure the decoder for analog output follow these steps: • • • • • Click Video. Click Display Configuration. Under Display Output Selection, click Analog. Under the Analog Display section, click NTSC or PAL. Click Save Display Settings. Analog Configuration Page 16 6X-1108B 4.3 Serial Configuration The decoder has one RS232 serial port capable of speeds up to 115,000 baud. The Serial Data tab provides settings for the RS232 serial port configuration and terminal port server configuration. 4.3.1 RS232 Serial Port Configuration To open the RS232 Serial Port Configuration page: • • Click Serial Data. Click RS232 Configuration. The serial port is a standard RS232 port and has a standard DTE pinout: pin 2 - RX, pin 3 - TX, and pin 5 - Ground. The port includes all standard options for configuring the serial port, such as baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits, and duplex. RS232 Serial Port Configuration Page 4.3.2 Port Server Configuration To open the Port Server Configuration page: • • Click Serial Data. Click Port Server Configuration. The RS232 terminal port server supports serial communications via a network connection. Enable: This can be enabled, or disabled if this function is not needed. Server Type: The terminal server can function in a server or client mode. In the server mode, the decoder will listen on the configured network port for incoming connections. Once a connection is established, data is passed in both directions in and out of the serial port on that network connection. If the decoder is configured for client mode, the decoder will connect to a host that is listening on the IP address and port configured in the settings. This function essentially creates a serial port tunnel across an IP network allowing serial devices to communicate over an IP network. 6X-1108B 17 Port Server Configuration Page 4.4 Network Configuration To open the Network Configuration interface: • • Click Network. Click Network Configuration. The 9710HD decoder can be configured to obtain an IP address automatically via Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or by setting the IP address manually. In DHCP mode the decoder will request network configuration from a DHCP server (usually your router) which will assign it an IP address. NOTE: A unique hostname must be assigned for both DHCP and static configurations. Select ON to enable DHCP mode to automatically obtain an IP address. Select OFF to enable manual mode to apply the following settings: 18 • IP Address: The static IP address assigned to the decoder. Be sure it is not already assigned on your network. • Subnet Mask: Used to define the size of your subnet. • Default Gateway: Gateway address where all traffic not on the subnet will be routed. Be sure this address is accessible from the Static IP address within the range defined by the Subnet Mask. • DNS Server: A primary DNS server to be used by the decoder. • Host Name: The unique hostname to be assigned to the decoder. 6X-1108B Network Configuration Page 4.5 USB Joystick Configuration To open the Joystick Configuration page: • • Click Plugins. Click Joystick Configuration. The decoder has the capability of controlling a camera directly, or indirectly, using a USB joystick. If a USB joystick is connected to the decoder, using one of the two USB ports, and enabled for operation, it will automatically connect to the camera it is currently decoding. This connection will be automatically created if the user connects using any method of decoding except MPEG2TS. In the case of the video being transported using MPEG2TS mode, the joystick configuration can be manually applied, but it will not be able to determine directly the IP address of the camera. The decoder can also connect to any other device or camera that is listening for this connection. Under the Joystick Configuration interface the joystick can be enabled and disabled. If disabled, the decoder will not connect the joystick movement to the camera nor create a connection to the camera for joystick control. NOTE: The camera control connection uses port 1236. If the camera is behind a firewall, users may need to open this port to allow the decoder to connect to the camera. If the Connect on Video option is selected and there is a joystick plugged into the decoder, the decoder will automatically connect to the camera and initiate PTZ controls. The decoder is also capable of sending presets to the camera from the joystick. If the Connect on Video option is disabled, the user will need to supply an IP address for joystick operations. 6X-1108B 19 Joystick Configuration Page 20 6X-1108B Appendix 1.
