Use DHCP (the default setting) for fast and easy setup of the devices. If the device does not encounter a
DHCP server on the network it will switch to the link-local range automatically (169.254.XX.XX).
If you need to use static IP addressing for your transceivers see the: EHX User Guide.

Indicator 1 red 2 Hz =
overheat, indicator 2 red 2 Hz =
power on test failure.
Note: You must not connect
more than one LAN to the
same network at the same
time (broadcast storm).
Reset the IPT to default:
Press and hold the Mode button. Wait until status LED 2 turns red (12 seconds). Release the Mode button
and the IPT will reboot and reset. This sets the device Admin port to DHCP (the AES67 Audio port is not
changed). Reset can take up to 5 minutes.
Connecting the transceivers
Cable the IPTs, matrix and PC as shown in Fig 1. Ensure that the network switch is set up according to the
guidelines shown on Fig. 1 (more detail can be found in Clear-Com AES67 Switch Recommendations and Best
Practices).
1) Before powering the IPTs, ensure that the IP addresses (Admin and AES67) of the E-IPA card are
set correctly.
In the EHX software, navigate to EHX>Hardware>Cards and Ports>E-IPA card>Card Properties (right
click on the E-IPA card for Card Properties). In the example below, Admin IP is static, while the AES67 IP
is set to DHCP.
