DRAKE PEG-NE24-IP-C Quick Manual

PEG-NE24-IP-C QUICK GUIDE

DESCRIPTION

The PEG-NE24-IP-C is a stand-alone H.264 digital video PEG channel encoder with a single SD/HD-SDI, or
composite video input, and an IP-encapsulation output via a single SFP Ethernet port. A separate RJ45 10/100
Ethernet port is provided for control and monitoring capability.

The PEG-NE24-IP-C features selectable SDI PCM-embedded audio, or analog left and right audio. A Second
Audio Program (SAP) channel is available via a SDI PCM-embedded audio track. Audio compression can be
either Dolby® Digital, MPEG1-Layer 2 stereo, or AAC stereo.

STEP 1: Setup and Login

First, connect the appropriate input and output video cables and plug in the PEG-NE24 power cable.

Local or remote communication with the unit is only possible through a GUI-based menu via any standard
web browser Chrome or Firefox is recommended, for IE use IE8 minimum. Before being able to communicate
with the unit, the user must congure the computer’s Local Area Network connection to be in the same sub­net as the PEG default IP ( 172.16.70.1 ).

Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer to the Control
10/100 port of the PEG.

• Assign “172.16.70.2” as the static IP address for the control
computer.

• Enter “172.16.70.1” (default address) into the Browser to access
the PEG Encoder.

• Login with Username: “admin” and password “pass”.

STEP 2: Configure Encoding

Global Conguration

A

Sets global settings that apply to both streams and the possible outputs.

1

Video Source: Video input selection of SDI or Composite.

2

Audio Source: Audio input selection of SDI or Analog (L/R).

3

Audio Synchronization: A/V lip-sync adjustment used to adjust your audio to video synchronization.

4

Stream Enable: Stream combinations available are:

Disable: Encoder is not streaming.

Native: Encoder will stream an HD or SD

stream depending on the video input being
HD or SD source.

Native Resolution

B

These settings, for the Primary stream, set parameters for streaming an HD or SD stream, depending on
the video input HD or SD source. See “C: SD Only Stream Settings” for SD-specic settings.

SD Only: Encoder streams a SD stream regardless of
video input being HD or SD source.

Native + SD: Encoder streams an HD and SD stream
or a SD stream and SD stream depending on video
input being HD or SD source.

VIDEO SETTINGS

Video Encoder Format: MPEG-4/H.264

1

HD Video Bitrate (Mbps): Primary Stream; 3.5 to 13.0 (increments of 0.1) in H.264.

2a

NOTE: Once an input is applied, only the detected resolution will be displayed. Both SD & HD video bitrates are
displayed only when no input is detected.

4

Video Mode Flag: Setting adjusts video encoder mode for decoder compatibility. The following
options are available:

Frame-Only: Encoding mode used when the video input is progressive (ex. 720p). This mode can also be
used to encode interlaced video (ex. 480i or 1080i).

Field-Only: Encoding mode used when the video input is interlaced (ex. 480i or 1080i). Some decoders may
have compatibility issues when decoding eld encoding.

NOTE: If the video input is 720P the encoding mode will automatically default to Frame-only mode, even if Field­Only mode is selected in the menu.

Aspect Ratio: As described under “(C) SD-Only Settings”.
