5.

Click OK to enter the information and proceed to the Administration page which provides both a
descriptive overview of the program stream and lists the currently used firmware.

6.

Determine the data throughput available on the network being used by the source encoder. This
information determines which Encoder Profile and Transport Protocol will be used to encode the
outgoing media stream.

7.

Access Stream Profiles page (FIG. 134) by clicking the Stream Profiles link from within the Navigation
frame. This page allows a user to both configure the properties of the outgoing media stream and setup
the properties associated with communicating the stream to an external IP-enabled device capable of
receiving and processing the data.

8.

From the Profile field, click on the drop-down arrow and from the available list, choose the desired
encoder setting which conforms to the available data throughput on your network. Although the default
selection is Home Theater (Max), the user can choose from up to 6 pre-created entries and one Custom
entry which makes every field user-definable.



For the purpose of these procedures, we’ve been informed that our network can handle the full 6
Mbps data throughput, so we’ll select Home Theater (Max).

9.

Click the Apply button to save the encoding profiles to the MAX (FIG. 135).

10.

From the Stream section of the page, locate the Transport Protocol field and use the drop-down arrow to
select a desired protocol. For the purposes of these procedures, we’ve chosen UDP as the protocol
(FIG. 135).



An UDP protocol is typically used with higher-bandwidth streams and only requires the entry of a
single Target Port because both the video and audio are combined into a single media stream. With
this method, the Modero panel always utilizes an audio port value of two greater than that used by
the Target Port.



An RTP protocol is typically used both with lower-bandwidth streams and when user wants to
purposely separate the video and audio information into two distinct streams. With this method, the
Target Audio Port must be manually entered and CAN NOT be the same value as the Target Port
used for video.

11.

Enter the previously obtained IP Address of the target Modero panel (FIG. 133) into the Target Address
field (FIG. 135).

12.

Enter a numeric value into the Target Port field. This field corresponds to the port on the destination
device where the outgoing video (audio/video) stream is being directed to.
