STEP 3 – Install SFPs in the SFP cages
INSTALL AN SFP MODULE IN THE TX
- Plug a compatible SFP in the SFP slot on the transmitter unit (TX).
NOTE: See Table 3 for a list of compatible SFPs (ordered separately).
INSTALL AN SFP MODULE IN THE RX
- Plug a compatible SFP in the SFP slot on the receiver unit (RX).
NOTE: See Table 3 for a list of compatible SFPs (ordered separately).

STEP 4A – Connect Power via External Power Supply
CONNECT POWER TO TRANSMITTER
- Locate the power supply adapter and the AC line cord.
- Plug the DC connector of the power supply into the matching socket on the rear of the transmitter.
- Attach the AC line cord to the power supply adapter.
CONNECT POWER TO RECEIVER
- Locate the power supply adapter and the AC line cord.
- Plug the DC connector of the power supply into the matching socket on the rear of the receiver.
- Attach the AC line cord to the power supply adapter.
STEP 4B – Connect Power via PoE
CONNECT POWER USING POE
- Connect all computer cables to the Transmitter.
- Plug the POE enabled network cable into the transmitter; power will be enabled immediately.
- Connect the monitor and peripheral devices into the receiver.
- Plug the POE enabled network cable into the receiver; power will be enabled immediately.
STEP 5 – Connect the Peripherals
CONNECT THE TRANSMITTER
- Attach the Emerald PE Transmitter to the target PC/workstation using DVI and USB Type B cables.
- Connect to the LAN using standard CATx UTP or fiber cables to the local network connection.
CONNECT THE RECEIVER
- Attach the monitor, keyboard, mouse, USB and audio devices to the Emerald PE Receiver.
- Connect to the LAN using standard CATx UTP or fiber cables to the local network connection.
STEP 6 – Starting Up and Default Settings
STARTING UP
- Once everything is connected, the unit automatically powers on when it is plugged in via a power adapter or PoE.
- The Graphical User Interface (GUI) will appear on the screen.
- Enter the default administrator user name and password.User name: adminPassword: blank (just press the Enter key)
- The default network setting for the Emerald PE Receiver uses a preconfigured static IP address.
- If you require the unit to be set to use DHCP, select the Control tab on the GUI and then choose the Network option. Select the DHCP option and click Apply.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
Transmitter IP Address: 192.168.1.22Receiver IP Address: 192.168.1.21Type: StaticSubnet Mask: 255.255.255.0Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0Admin username: adminAdmin Password: no password, it is blank by defaultPorts Used: 3389IMPORTANT: Do not lose the admin password once configured; there is no way to reset or retrieve it. The Emerald PE receiver has the option to create a second administrator account as a secondary entrance.
STEP 7 – Point-to-Point Installation
POINT-TO-POINT INSTALLATION
In a point-to-point configuration, no administrator setup of the Emerald PE Transmitter or the Emerald PE receiver is required. This enables you to install the system quickly, directly out of the box. In the point-to-point configuration, you can install only one transmitter and receiver pair on a subnet and both must be on the same subnet unless a router is present in the network to span subnets. To span across different subnets, you will need to have admin rights to both routers on either side of the installation and setup port forwarding for port “3389” for Remote Desktop.If further configuration is required to change the default IP addresses, you can access the transmitter’s network settings through the remote unit:
- Simply connect the transmitter to the receiver using a CATx cable (but do not power up the transmitter yet), then connect a keyboard, monitor, and mouse to the remote unit (remote unit is on at this time).
- Login as “admin” and go to (Control)>> (Transmitter)>> (Discover) and follow the on-screen steps.
- It will advise you to connect both devices together and then power up the transmitter and press the “Next” button.
- It will take several minutes to discover the transmitter, but once found, you can modify the network parameters.
STEP 8 – Matrix Installation and Getting Started
MATRIX INSTALLATION
In a matrix installation, every Emerald PE transmitter and receiver requires its own IP address. By default, the DHCP setting is set to static, so the addresses will need to be configured manually:
- Always configure the transmitter first by connecting the transmitter to the receiver using a CATx cable (but do not power up the transmitter yet), then connect a keyboard, monitor, and mouse to the remote unit (remote unit is on at this time).
- Login as “admin” on the remote unit and go to (Control)>> (Transmitter)>> (Discover) and follow the on-screen steps.
- It will advise you to connect both devices together, and then power up the transmitter and press the “Next” button.
- It will take several minutes to discover the transmitter, but once found, you can modify the network parameters.
- Once the transmitter is configured, you can now configure the receiver
- If the units are on different subnets, then routers will need to be used to properly direct traffic.
GETTING STARTED
Once the IP addresses have been configured, each receiver will need to be configured for users, user passwords, user access rights and default video resolutions. You can access these settings from the receiver’s OSD (reboot the receiver and login as admin) and begin configuring these parameters.NOTE: Each receiver can support a maximum of 32 users and a maximum of 32 targets (virtualized or transmitter).
