The monitor should now show a scrolling EAS weekly test message. If you do not see the test message,
double check your video connections and ensure that you have the correct video standard selected in
the 3025SW. Double check that you have configured the correct CG Interface Type and that the serial
cable is valid and connected to the correct ports. Check the Evertz Web site at www.evertz.com
for any
new firmware releases for the 3025SW. Check that you are running the most up-to-date firmware in your
TFT decoder Phone: 1-800-347-3383.
Evertz tested this configuration with the TFT decoder model EAS 911 with firmware version T.838.

8.4.4. Testing the Dasdec Decoder (IP)
This section outlines the procedure to configure the Evertz 3025SW with the DASDEC “RP189” which
supports EAS over Ethernet.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Connect a standard CAT-5 network cable from the RJ45 port at the back of the EAS box into a
routing hub or other network-switching device. You will likely need assistance from a network
administrator to ensure that there will not be an IP conflict as the default IP address of the
DASDEC will likely be 192.168.0.200.
2. Once the EAS box is powered up, booted and operational (status green) it can be accessed via a
web browser from any remote computer on the LAN.
3. When prompted use “Admin” (no quotes) as the default username and “dasdec” as the default
password. Click the Login button to start the web configuration session.
4. To configure the IP address of the EAS box, select Setup then Network and you will be presented
with the network configuration dialogue. The current Main NIC IP address will be shown. Make
the necessary changes to the IP address and subnet mask and then click Accept
Changes/Restart Network.
5. To add the 3025SW device, select Setup then Net Alerts. Under the Configure EAS Net Clients
heading, ensure that the “Alert Forwarding to EAS_NET devices” and “Encoder Originated Alerts
Sent to EAS_NET devices” options are both checked.
6. Next, click “Add EAS_NET Client Interface”. Select a new EAS_NET client and configure the
following parameters (most settings will not
need to be modified).
