For example, set Device 2 in grouping mode to make Device 1

devices are in the other group; set Device 2 and Device 4 in
grouping mode to make Device 1 and Device 2 in a group, Device
3 and Device 4 work in a group, Device 5 and backward devices in
the other group (More details please check Page 23.) Both
Chain-type and Ring-type connection could support grouping
mode.
Before set up, please take care of below steps:
1. Connect a PC to each device by Ethernet port, log in their WEB
GUI to set static IP address and alias name for every device.
(Please check Page 18 to learn how to log in WEB GUI.)
2. Connect all devices by HDBaseT ports through Cat cable, make

port of any device. Do not make Ring-type connection directly with
LAN access, otherwise there will be LAN conflicts and LAN control
disabled.
3. Log in WEB GUI of the first device in the chain, input total
quantity of devices cascaded within Daisy-chain Sequence and
then click Start Sequence. (More details please check Page 22
