THE VIEW PRO ENCODER AND DECODER

ClearOne’s VIEW Pro D310 decoder delivers the ultimate in high-quality,
low-latency, 4:2:0 YCbCr color space digital media at unrivaled cost
advantage. Distribution of all digital media is via existing IP networks and
infrastructure to single-image, full-screen video applications.

ClearOne StreamNet® technology embedded within VIEW Pro encoders
and decoders also facilitates automatic discovery, control, monitoring
and distribution within StreamNet networks.

The VIEW Pro D310 decoder takes the combined video and audio
stream, usually provided from a VIEW Pro encoder, decodes it, and then
sends the video and audio to a display such as a HDTV or projector and
sound system.

The latest version of the VIEW CONSOLE software can be found on the
ClearOne website at http://www.clearone.com/resources#network_

media_streaming.

VIEW PRO ENCODER & DECODER

ENCODER AND DECODERS IN A NETWORK

The VIEW Pro encoder receives input from an AV source device such as
BluRay Player, DVD Player, etc. and distributes it over a StreamNet TCP/
IP network using a standard 100 Mbit or Gbit Ethernet connection. The
encoder provides the IP data for VIEW Pro decoders to deliver to the
displays, therefore decoders are installed at the locations of the target
video displays.

This picture shows an example for connecting VIEW Pro devices in a
network.

MOUNTING THE D310 DECODER

The D310 includes a Mounting Plate and screws. The Mounting Plate can
be used on a wall or for applications where a decoder must be located
on a VESA mount, such as on the back of a monitor.

Attach the Mounting Plate to a display with the 4 phillips-head screws.
(Figure 1)

Figure 1

NOTE: Although the Mounting Plate does attach the decoder to
the back of a display, it also allows the decoder to be attached to a
separate VESA mount.

Insert the 2 screws with the extended heads into the back of the D310
and tighten. (Figure 2)

CONFIGURING THE DECODER

The VIEW Pro D310 Decoder is configured for use in the network with the
VIEW CONSOLE program. VIEW CONSOLE is a PC-based program that
allows you to configure devices so that they can communicate across a
StreamNet network. Phases of the software setup include:

• Create a new or open an existing project

• Add the D310 device to the project

• Match the correct device from the right-hand column.

• Configuring the device with system-specific information regarding

Display Outputs, Controls, IP.

• Saving the project

• Sending the configurations

These steps in these processes are detailed in the VIEW CONSOLE user
manual available for viewing or download at www.ClearOne.com.

NOTE: VIEW CONSOLE version 3.02.xx or later is required to
support the D310 decoder.

Information specific to the VIEW Pro Decoder is contained in the VIEW
Pro - D310 Digital AV Decoder Installation and Users Manual available
for viewing or download at www.clearone.com. (The steps for using the
VIEW CONSOLE program and options for the D310 are similar to those
of the D210 decoder).
