Please note the following basic principle when choosing your encryption
method:

b

In dLAN networks that consist only of adapters with encryption button, the
individual data encryption works "at the touch of a button".

b

In a "mixed" dLAN network that contains adapters with and without encryp-
tion button, the data transmission must always be encrypted using the dLAN
Configuration Wizard.

4.3.1

dLAN 200 AV network encryption at the touch of a button

To encrypt a dLAN 200 AV network, if the adapters have the corresponding
equipment, you can simply use the encryption button on the device. Pressing this
button will encrypt your dLAN 200 AV network with a randomly generated pass-
word.

The encryption button of the dLAN TV Sat PC is on the power supply.

Adapters cannot be configured while in Standby mode.

The following section contains exact instructions on the basis of possible net-
work scenarios:
ቢ Encrypting a new dLAN 200 AV network with two dLAN 200 AV adapt-

ers

Once both dLAN 200 AV adapters have been successfully connected, press each
encryption button for two seconds within two minutes of one another. That's
it! Your dLAN 200 AV network is now protected against unauthorised access.

ባ Expanding an existing dLAN 200 AV network using a new dLAN 200

AV adapter (e.g. the dLAN TV Sat PC)

If you have already secured your existing dLAN 200 AV network using the
encryption button, use the same method to integrate further adapters. Once you
have successfully connected the new dLAN 200 AV adapter to the socket, first
press the encryption button of one of your network’s existing adapters (two sec-
onds), then press the encryption button of your new dLAN 200 AV adapter (two
seconds) within two minutes. That's it! The new dLAN 200 AV adapter is now
integrated in your network.
