Installing and Configuring Your New Networked AV Product
Before using your N3510 unit, it must be configured using SVSi's free N-Able setup software. Please download
N-Able for PC or Mac at
http://svsiav.com/support/resources/software .
Steps for auto discovering devices on the network:
1. Download and install N-Able.
2. Attach devices to the managed network switch.
3. Disable the wireless adapter on your computer (it must be hard-wired to the switch).
4. Connect the host PC running N-Able to the network switch.
5. Open the N-Able application.
6. Discover the devices on your network by clicking Auto Discover on the Unit Management tab.
Auto discovery is a broadcast command and will discover all units even if they are not in the same IP subnet.
However, you will not be able to configure units until they are in the same subnet as the host PC. N-Series devices
are shipped in Auto-IP mode with a default IP address of 169.254.xxx.xxx. Before attempting configuration, some
changes must be made to the host PC.
Steps for IP address configuration in a Microsoft Windows environment:
1. Select Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center from the Start menu.
2. Select Change adapter settings.
3. Select the wired interface connected to your AV network.
4. Click the Properties button.
5. Scroll down in the list to the Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) option. Highlight it and click the Proper-
ties button.The screen shown below is displayed.
6. Enable the Use the following IP address option, and enter the static IP address provided to you by your net-
work administrator.
Note: If the PC does not need Internet access, you can simply enter a unique 169.254.xxx.xxx IP address with a
255.255.0.0 Subnet mask. Please contact your network administrator if you are unsure of how to configure the
existing interface.
Note: If the PC has a statically-assigned IP address, click on the Advanced button. Then click Add to enter a
unique 169.254.xxx.xxx address with a subnet of 255.255.0.0.
Unit Settings Page
The Unit Settings page (shown below) allows you to configure unit and network settings as well as import/export
presets for your Windowing Processor. Available options include:
• Device Name: Configure a user-friendly name for your unit.
• Stream Output: Enable this option prior to viewing the output of the N3510 with a Decoder. When enabled, you
can route video in N-Able (or your other configuration choice) to the nine windows and route the output of the
N3510 to an N3000 Decoder to verify operations.
• Stream Format: Specify the format of the output stream. For use with SVSi Decoders, select RTP.
• Output Stream: If desired, modify from the default stream number. N-Able (or your other configuration choice)
may also prompt for this to be changed when the unit is first discovered.
In the Network Setup section on the Unit Settings page:
• IP address is required, and will be used as the control IP address.
• Configure the Netmask and default Gateway address as needed or directed by IT personnel.
If you do need to make changes to the Network Setup section, click Trial Save once changes are made. If the
control IP address is different from the default, you will need to log in to the unit using its new IP address. Once re-
logged back in, click Confirm to keep the changes. If the unit is power cycled before the changes are confirmed, it
will revert to its original IP address.
