3. Opsætning

Setting up the ZY-EH1304 encoder involves connecting the necessary cables and configuring the device via its web interface.

3.1. Hardwareforbindelser

1. Tilslut HDMI-kilder: Connect your HDMI video sources (e.g., cameras, computers, media players) to the HDMI IN ports (1-4) on the encoder.
2. Tilslut lydkilder: If using external audio, connect your audio devices to the AUDIO IN ports (1-4).
3. Netværks forbindelse: Connect an Ethernet cable from the encoder's LAN port to your network router or switch. For initial configuration, a direct connection to a computer may be required.
4. Strømtilslutning: Connect the provided 12V/DC power adapter to the encoder and plug it into a power outlet. The device will power on automatically.

3.2. Indledende konfiguration (Web grænseflade)

The encoder is configured through a web-based interface. The LCD screen on the device will display its IP address. Use this IP address to access the configuration page from a web browser på en computer, der er tilsluttet det samme netværk.

1. Identify IP Address: Check the LCD screen on the encoder for its current IP address.
2. Adgang Web Interface: Åbn a web browser on your computer and enter the encoder's IP address in the address bar.
3. Login: Enter the default username and password (refer to the included quick start guide for default credentials).
4. Netværksindstillinger: Configure network settings (e.g., static IP, DHCP) as required for your network environment.
5. Video and Audio Settings: Adjust resolution, bitrate, encoding profiles (H.265/H.264/MJPEG), and audio settings for each channel.
6. Streaming Protocol Configuration: Set up your desired streaming protocols (RTMP, RTSP, etc.) and destination server details for live streaming.

4. Betjeningsvejledning

Once configured, the ZY-EH1304 encoder operates by taking video and audio inputs, encoding them, and streaming them out over the network.

4.1. Overvågningsstatus

• The integrated LCD screen provides real-time information on the encoder's operational status, including IP address and channel activity.
• De web interface offers a comprehensive dashboard to monitor input status, output streams, and system health.

4.2. Managing Streams

• Each of the 4 input channels can generate up to 4 independent streams, supporting different protocols or destinations simultaneously.
• Brug web interface to start, stop, and modify individual streams.
• Adjust parameters such as resolution, frame rate, and bitrate on the fly to optimize for network conditions or platform requirements.

4.3. Avancerede funktioner

• OSD (On-Screen Display): Customize your video output by adding text, time stamps, or image logos directly onto the video stream via the web interface.
• Spejl/flip: Apply horizontal or vertical mirroring/flipping to the video output as needed for specific applications.
