Manuale utente dell'Extender KVM IP ad alte prestazioni Adder XDIP-POE

Introduzione

The ADDERLink XDIP is an IP KVM extender designed for extending and managing critical PCs over a standard 1Gb/s IP network. This device offers ultra-low latency and HD video transmission, making it suitable for point-to-point extension or small matrix solutions. Its configurable units can function as either a transmitter or a receiver, providing flexibility in deployment. The XDIP supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) for simplified installation and features an intuitive API for remote control and integration into larger systems.

Caratteristiche principali

• KVM Extender and Matrix Functionality: Provides both KVM extension and matrix capabilities.
• Configurable Units: Both user and computer units are identical and can be configured as a transmitter or receiver.
• Alimentazione su Ethernet (PoE): Compatible with most PoE switches, eliminating the need for additional power adapters in many installations.
• Telecomando: Network control via a RESTful API or HTTPS web browser.
• Distanza di estensione: Operates within the IP standard of 100m, with a 40% safety overhead.
• Collega e usa: Delivered in a zero-configuration state, requiring no drivers or software for immediate operation upon connection.
• Local USB and Video Feed-through Ports: For direct connection at the unit.

Impostare

The XDIP-POE is designed for straightforward installation. Follow these steps for initial setup:

1. Configurazione dell'unità: Determine whether each XDIP unit will function as a transmitter (connected to the computer) or a receiver (connected to the user console). Units are identical and can be configured as either.
2. Connessione di rete: Connect the XDIP unit to your 1Gb/s IP network using a standard Ethernet cable. If using PoE, ensure your network switch supports 802.3af PoE.
3. Collegamento elettrico: If PoE is not available or preferred, connect an optional 12VDC power adapter to the 3 Pin Locking DC jack.
4. Computer Connections (Transmitter):
   • Connect the computer's HDMI output to the XDIP's HDMI input.
   • Connect the computer's USB port to the XDIP's USB type B port.
   • Connect the computer's audio output to the XDIP's Audio 3.5mm input (if audio extension is required).
5. Console Connections (Receiver):
   • Connect your display's HDMI input to the XDIP's HDMI output.
   • Connect your keyboard, mouse, or other USB HID devices to the XDIP's 3x USB type A ports.
   • Connect your audio input device (e.g., speakers) to the XDIP's Audio 3.5mm output (if audio extension is required).
6. Accensione: Once all connections are secure, power on the XDIP units. The device is designed for plug-and-play operation, requiring no initial software or driver installation.

Istruzioni per l'uso

Once the XDIP units are set up and powered, they will automatically establish a connection. The following outlines general operation and advanced control methods:

• Funzionamento di base: After connecting, the KVM extender will transmit video, USB, and audio signals between the computer and the console. No additional software is required for basic point-to-point extension.
• Indicatori di stato: Monitor the front panel LEDs (LNK, USB, VID, PWR) for operational status.
  • LNK (Link): Indica la connettività di rete.
  • USB: Indicates USB device connection and activity.
  • VID (Video): Indicates active video signal transmission.
  • PWR (Potenza): Indica che l'unità è alimentata.
• Telecomando: For matrix functionality or advanced control, the XDIP network can be managed remotely.
  • HTTPS Web Navigatore: Access the unit's web interfaccia inserendo il suo indirizzo IP in a web browser. This provides a graphical interface for configuration and control.
  • RESTful API: For integration into larger systems or custom control solutions, utilize the RESTful API. Refer to the Adder documentation for API specifications and commands.
• Local USB and Video Feed-through: The unit includes local USB and video ports, allowing for direct connection of peripherals or a monitor at the unit's location, which can be useful for local diagnostics or temporary access.

Risoluzione dei problemi

If you encounter issues with your Adder XDIP-POE, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Nessun potere:
  • Verify the power cable is securely connected to the unit and the power source.
  • If using PoE, ensure the network switch port is active and providing power. Check the PWR LED on the unit.
• Nessun segnale video:
  • Check HDMI cable connections at both the computer/source and the display/console.
  • Ensure the video source (computer) is powered on and outputting a signal.
  • Verify the VID LED on the XDIP unit is illuminated.
  • Confirm the display is set to the correct input source.
  • Check video resolution settings on the computer; ensure they are within the supported range (max 1920x1200 at 60Hz).
• USB Devices Not Responding:
  • Assicurarsi che i cavi USB siano collegati saldamente.
  • Verify the USB LED on the XDIP unit is illuminated.
  • Test USB devices directly on the computer to confirm functionality.
  • Only USB 2.0 HID devices (keyboard, mouse, tablet, touch) are supported.
• Nessuna connettività di rete:
  • Controllare i collegamenti dei cavi Ethernet.
  • Verify the LNK LED on the XDIP unit is illuminated.
  • Ensure the network switch is operational and the port is active.
• Problemi audio:
  • Controllare i collegamenti del cavo audio da 3.5 mm.
  • Ensure audio output on the computer and input on the console are correctly configured and not muted.
• Problemi intermittenti:
  • Controllare che tutti i collegamenti dei cavi non siano allentati.
  • Ensure the network environment is stable and free from excessive interference.
