Press the

Set IP Addr

button. A data pad displays to allow you to type in

the IP address you want to use for the device you selected.

Netmask

A netmask is a string of zeroes and ones used to “mask” or screen out the
network part of an IP address so that only the numbers for a single specific
device remain.

To set the Netmask for a device using the Kayak control panel menu, follow
the Set IP Address procedure above (see

page 88

) except select

Set Netmask

instead of Set IP Address. A data pad displays to allow you to type in the
Netmask setting you want to use for the device you selected.

Network Settings - Telnet

Another way to configure network settings for the Kayak HD control panel
and frame as well as for connected devices is to connect a computer to the
switcher by using Telnet instead of the control panel menus.

Note

For setting the Gateway address you must use Telnet as this setting is not
available through the menus.
