2.1.1 Default Settings

Both multicast and unicast modes are supported. The default is set to unicast, direct
connection and Jumbo Frame. It is pre-configured as point to point.

Multicast Mode

In multicast mode, the system can be setup to be one to one, one to many, multiple
transmitters to multiple receivers.

Enter RX Operation Mode Web page  [Functions]  [Audio Output]



check “HDMI Audio De-Embedder” for the audio output to Line-Out.
Click [Apply] to save the setting and reboot.

【Multi-Screen Setting】(TX/RX)

The system supports Multi-Screen
feature for PC with multiple screens.
Each TX/RX can define its associated
2nd, 3rd, 4th TX/RX IP. So, when the
Main RX switches to a new TX, its associated RXs will also be

KVM-IP-Tx/Rx

switched to that new TX’s associated TXs automatically.
Enter TX/RX Operation Mode Web page  [Functions] 
[Multi-Screen Setting]  then enter IP address for the associated 2nd,
3rd, 4th TX/RX IP.

․Mirror: (RX)

There is an option of “Mirror”, when enabled, the associated RXs will
connect to the same TX as the Main RX is connecting. This enables
multiple RXs to display the same TX as a splitter.

4.0 Installation

1. By factory default, the KVM-IP-Tx/Rx is pre-configured with Unicast,
Direct Connection and Jumbo Frame. It is configured for one-to-one
as pairing connection. The maximum distance between TX and RX is
170 meters by using CAT6/6a or CAT7 cable.

2. Connects RX DVI-I to HDMI/DVI/VGA screen by a
DVI-to-HDMI/DVI-to-DVI/DVI-to-VGA cable.

3. The RX will get EDID from screen and send to TX during connection
with TX.

4. The RX will display the following start-up messages when powered
on:

FW: 15-Nov-18 A5.3.4 ---> Firmware version
Local IP: 10.0.29.72 ---> RX’s IP address

KVM-IP-Tx/Rx

Remote IP: 10.0.29.73 ---> Connecting TX IP address
ID: 0020FE001122 ---> RX’s MAC address
Connection Method ---> Direct Connection

5. Attach HDMI/DVI source (PC or Blue-Ray) to the TX’s DVI-In then power
ON the TX unit. The TX’s Green LED will blink then ON indicating ready
and waiting for connection with RX.

6. As long as TX/RX connection established, both of TX and RX Amber
LED will start to blink indicating wait for video input source (Green LED
is ON).

7. If you are using PC as video source, it is recommended to check if the
correct screen EDID shown on PC graphic card control panel.

8. Activate video source with audio to TX, then check if RX correctly

display. In this step, both Green and Amber LED should be ON
indicating the unit is ready and video source is also ready.

4.1 USB and KM over IP Installation

1. Connect TX USB-B to PC, OS will detect a Generic USB Virtual Hub
Device.

2. The system can support both “USB-over-IP” and “KM-over-IP”.

3. The USB-over-IP works as a Virtual 5-port HUB when connected to TX, it
is compatible with most kind of USB devices such as keyboard, mouse,
Pen Drive, Touch Screen… The USB-over-IP connection can be
configured in “Active on link” (Sharing) mode or in “Active per request”
(Exclusive) mode (Default). In “Active on link” mode, the maximum
USB-over-IP connection for a TX is 5 due to the 5 ports of Virtual HUB.

4. The KM-over-IP means that port will work as HID device only for
keyboard/mouse emulation, the PC don’t get BIOS “Keyboard Error” if
there is no real keyboard attached during boot up. It is not necessary to
gain USB access right for the KM-over-IP port. The TX (PC) can be
shared with multiple RXs for keyboard/mouse access in KM-over-IP
mode.

5. There are 3 USB-A ports on the RX. The factory default setting for the
TX is both of USB-over-IP and KM-over-IP enabled, all 3 USB ports of RX
are in USB-over-IP mode (KM-over-IP Disabled).

6. There are 2 methods to gain the access right for a USB-over-IP port:
a. Long press (3 sec.) the RX [FUNCTION button]
b. Press “U” key to toggle during Transmitter List OSD menu.

The RX display “Requesting USB” to indicate starting USB-over-IP

connection, and message of “Starting USB” will be displayed if it
successfully gained the USB access right. Meanwhile, the previous USB
Master unit will show an OSD message of “Stopping USB”.

4.2 Rx OSD Main Menu

The RX supports OSD menu, press the RX’s [FUNCTION] button to get the
OSD Main menu: [Hotkey Setting] and [Connection Method].

1. From the OSD Main Menu, press [FUNCTION] button to move the
highlight arrow to [Hotkey Setting]. Wait a few seconds, the sub-menu will
show up with 4 possible selections: “Ctrl Ctrl”, “Shift Shift”, “Alt Alt”, or
“Scroll Scroll”. Press [FUNCTION] button again to move the highlight
arrow to the desired

selection. The RX unit will be re-booted.

2. From the OSD Main Menu, press [FUNCTION] button to move the

highlight arrow to [Connection Method]. Wait a few seconds,
either the Multicast or Unicast Connection Method sub-menu will
show up depending on the RX’s Multicast/Unicast setting.

The Multicast RX supports 3 possible connection methods:
4-bits DIP xxxx, Multicast IP, Transmitter List, as the right
picture:

a. The 4-bits DIP xxxx means the RX will connect to the

same 4-bits DIP of TX.

b. The Multicast IP 225.0.100.000 means the RX will connect to the

TX with the same Multicast IP.

c. The OSD Transmitter List means the RX will show up the

available Transmitters for user to select when <Hotkey>
<Hotkey> is pressed.The Unicast RX supports 2 possible
connection methods: OSD Transmitter List, Dedicated TX
IP, as the right picture:

Press the [FUNCTION] button to move the highlight arrow to the
desired selection and wait a while to confirm the selection. Please
note the Sub-Menu only provide selection, the Multicast IP or TX IP
can only be changed by the Web page setting.
