Chapter 2 Preparation

In this chapter, we will describe various essential devices to be connected to the switcher in order to complete the system setup. If you possess the skills for setting up the production system, feel free to skip this chapter and proceed to Chapter 5: Basic Operation.

2.1 Connecting Devices

Connecting the Video and Audio Input Devices

Connect cameras, computers and other video input devices to the video input connectors on the rear of the unit and connect an audio mixer to audio input connectors.

Computer for text input

TC-200

Computer for remote control of the switcher

16

When linking via tally connection

Connect the switcher’s tally connector to the tally connector on a commercially available tally box.

Tally Box

Connecting the Video and Audio Output Devices

Connect projectors, large displays and other video output devices to the video output connectors on the rear of the switcher.

SDI-to-HDMI

Converter

17

Connecting to a Network

Use the Ethernet Port to connect the switcher to the PC with the Image Import/Export Software installed.

For details on the Switcher Image Import/Export Software, see Chapter 3.

2.2 Multi View

The SE-3200 Multi view output can be supplied from the HDMI or SDI outputs, see Chapter 4 (4.7) for configuring the outputs. The Multi view shows monitoring images for Preview (PVW), Program (PGM) and Inputs 1~12. The Multi view can also show audio level bars overlaid on the Program image. This confirms the analogue XLR audio input is being received and embedded to the selected Program output(s).

SE-3200 Multi-view is supplied from the HDMI connection(s) on the rear panel and available across multiple HDMI monitors (not supplied). Since a variety of multi-image layouts is available, these HDMI outputs can be used to monitor video and audio in a number of different configurations. The layout of the multi view can also be changed. The sources can be swapped around using the cross point section of the Inputs menu. For each setup, embedded audio level indication is available on the Preview and Program windows.

Chapter 3 Network and Software Setup for Switcher

The Ethernet port on the back panel of the SE-3200 allows the user to import Still/Clip image or User memory using the Switcher Image Import/Export software. This chapter discusses direct connection between the SE-3200 and your Windows computer as well as the remote setup in detail. Please note that the Switcher Image Import/Export software must be installed on your Windows-based computer before using this feature.

Section 3.1 discusses how you can establish direct connection between the SE-3200 and a Windows computer. In Section 3.2, we will show you how to access the SE-3200 on the PC with the Switcher Image Import/Export software.

3.1 Switcher Setup with a Windows Computer

When new from the factory the SE-3200 will initially have a static IP address of 192.168.100.101. The unit can be directly connected to a Windows-based computer using an RJ-45 ethernet cable. The following set up should allow you to initially configure the unit before moving it to an existing DHCP / LAN network.

An RJ-45 Ethernet cable.

Windows 7/8/10 laptop or PC.

The Datavideo Switcher Image Import/Export software.

Instructions

1.First connect the SE-3200 and the Windows computer together using an RJ-45 ethernet cable.

2.Turn on the Windows computer and set it to static IP setup within the Windows Network and Sharing Centre. In our example, the computer is given the following IP settings so that the computer matches the same IP range as the switcher.

21

3. Now install the Switcher Image Import/Export software to the computer.

3.2 Installing the Switcher Image Import/Export software to a Windows Computer

The SE-3200 can be connected to a simple IP network and accessed using Windows-based software. If you have not already set up the SE-3200 with a computer then please follow the instructions in the previous section.

Please download the latest software from the Datavideo SE-3200 web page. See: www.datavideo.com

The install executable file [.msi] will be called

SwitcherImageImEx_vXXXX.msi

The vXXXX represents the latest version number.

Double click this .msi file then follow the on screen install wizard prompts.

Installation

1.Download SwitcherImageImEx_vx.x.x.msi from the product page and save it on the local disk.

2.Click the installation file icon to start the Setup Wizard.

3.Click “Next

22

4. Click “Install”

5.When you see the safety warning requesting for permission to allow an unknown publisher to make changes to the PC, please click “Yes” to continue.

23

6. Wait for the installation to finish.

7.After the setup is complete, you will see the following window; check “Launch SwitcherImageImEX” and click “Finish” to open the program.

24

8.After the setup is finished, a shortcut will be created in Start Menu > Programs > datavideo > tools > SwitcherImageImEx

9. Click SwitcherImageImEx to open the program.

The Switcher Image Import/Export software has a built-in IP finder, which is designed for PC with multiple Ethernet cards or DHCP network environment. Please note IP finder can only find devices that are on the same network domain as the PC. If you cannot remember

25

your device IP, simply open the OSD menu and then go to the Setup sub menu to restore the default network settings. Upon launch of the Switcher Image Import/Export software, you will be prompted to select one Ethernet Interface Card.

Once selected, click OK to start the scanning process.

Note: Please make sure the selected interface card is on the same network domain as the SE-3200 device.

Once the SE-3200 device is found, the software will connect with the switcher hardware over the IP set up described in the previous section. If the connection is successfully established, on the software user interface as shown in the diagram below, the Connect Status will show “Connected” (will display Not Connected if disconnected).

Router Based DHCP Setup

The computer software can also access the SE-3200 over an existing TCP/IP LAN type network. In order to initially set up the SE-3200, you may need the assistance of your local I.T. specialist to help with the network settings. To help guide you, we have included a simplified network setup example below, further advice may be available through your dealer locally or your Datavideo regional office.

26

To create this simple dedicated SE-3200 IP network you will need:

An IP router which can assign/give IP addresses.

Two RJ-45 patch leads.

Windows 7/8/10 laptop or PC.

The IP router Administrator login and password.

The Datavideo Switcher Image Import/Export software.

Instructions

1.First connect the router to the SE-3200 and the Windows computer using two RJ-45 patch leads.

2.Turn on the Windows computer and set it to DHCP setup within the Windows Network and Sharing Centre.

3.Now click the Windows start button and run the CMD prompt window.

4.At the command line > : _ type IPCONFIG and press enter.

5.The DEFAULT GATEWAY number displayed should be the router’s current IP address.

6.Press the MENU button on the SE-3200 control panel to open the OSD menu on the connected Multiview monitor. Open the Network sub menu of the Setup menu and then change the Addr Mode to DHCP from the default Static IP. Move to the SAVE option and then press the ENTER button to save new settings.

7.Reboot the SE-3200 and after the machine is rebooted, open the Network sub menu by following the instructions outlined in the previous step. The IP Addr option should show an IP address assigned randomly by the router thus having identical network domain as the router. If you see an IP address of 0.0.0.0 in the IP Addr field, it is likely that the router requires longer time to assign an IP address to the connected devices. Close the Network sub menu and reopen after 30-60 seconds, you should be able to see the newly assigned IP address.

8.Now install the Switcher Image Import/Export software to the computer.

Setting the Target IP Address with the Switcher Image Import/Export Software

Click Setup button in the MENU SELECT pane and the current IP Network settings are shown alongside the software version.

27

If the network settings are wrong then you may not be able to access the SE-3200. Always keep a note of the last IP settings used and change these settings carefully to avoid problems.

Target IP address – This IP address is the location on the local network, or the internet, where the software can talk to the SE-3200. By clicking the Target IP address you can enter a new address, once entered click Save Setup. The next time the Image Import/Export Software is opened, it will try to contact the switcher on this new Target IP address.

Network – This option in the yellow menu column allows you to change the network options on the SE-3200. When delivered from the factory the default static IP settings should be:

Addr Mode: Static (a manually set IP address that does not change even after power cycling the SE-3200 unit)

Target IP address: 192.168.100.101

Network Mask: 255.255.255.0

Gateway: 192.168.100.1

DHCP Setup - If the IP set up method is changed to DHCP then each time the SE-3200 is started, it may be given a different IP address by the network. Only use this method if you know how to find the SE-3200 on the internal IP network. A device on the network (usually a router or server) will automatically assign an IP address to the SE-3200. The other settings such as IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway may appear blank within the Switcher Image Import/Export software as these would be automatically set by network router/DHCP server.

28

The software supports multiple languages which are English, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese.

Note: The latest software version can be downloaded from the product page. To update the software, it is recommended to remove the existing program first. Click “Start Menu > Programs > datavideo > tools > Uninstall” to remove the program. If the program is not removed, the user will be prompted that the PC already contains the same program during the reinstallation process. Click “Remove” to remove SwitcherImageImEx from your computer.

Chapter 4 OSD MENU

The switcher’s OSD menu allows the user to perform several configurations of image effects, such as Picture-in- Picture, chroma key, subtitle overlay, still pictures and etc. The user can also configure the I/O by selecting different input and output options. In addition, in the setup menu, the user is allowed to set the menu color, size, position and language.

The OSD Menu can be opened in basic or advanced mode. The basic mode is generally a condensed version of the advanced menu mode. The following sub-sections will show you the various options available in these two modes.
