2.3 Configuring the IP Address, ID and Password
After you have installed and connected the necessary cables, you are ready to configure the
IP address, ID and password. The GV-IP Decoder Box supports two types of network
environments: fixed IP address and DHCP for dynamic IP address assignment. Depending
on your network, set up a static IP address or choose DHCP for dynamic IP address
assignment by the DHCP server.
The GV-IP Decoder Box contains two sets of ID and password: one set is required when
configuring GV-IP Decoder Box through GV-IP Device Utility; the other set is for direct
connection between GV IP devices and GV-IP Decoder Box.
Note:
1. By default, the GV-IP Decoder Box has the IP address of 192.168.0.10 and the ID and
password are admin.
2. Since all GV IP devices have the default IP address 192.168.0.10, it is advisable to
configure the IP address of your GV-IP Decoder Box to avoid IP conflict.
3. When connecting to GV-IP Decoder Box (see 2.4 Displaying Channels from GV IP
Devices), the GV IP devices need to have the same ID and password set on the GV-IP
Decoder Box.
1. Power on your GV-IP Decoder Box. The main menu appears.
