Kramer KDS-DEC3 [18/25] Validating network discovery

KDS-EN3, KDS-DEC3 - Validating Your KDS-EN3 Setup

6.2 Validating Network Discovery

KDS-EN3 units are initially assigned their IP addresses through DHCP (Dynamic

Host Control Protocol). After connecting your devices, we recommend verifying

that all your devices are discovered by the network.

Windows 8/7 – To make sure all your units are discovered by the network:

 Windows 8 – From the Start screen, go to All Apps > Windows System > File

Explorer > Network. Under Other Devices, make sure all the connected units

are listed

 Windows 7 – Click Start > Accessories > Windows Explorer > Network.

Under Other Devices, make sure all the KDS-EN3 units connected are listed

If prompted to enable network discovery and file sharing on your network when

validating network discovery, enable these two features by clicking on the prompt

at the top of your Windows Explorer window. These two features must be enabled

for KDS-EN3 Manager to detect KDS-EN3/KDS-DEC3 units on your subnet.

After validating your connection setup, install Kramer KDS-EN3 Manager software

(see Section 8).

6.3 Multiple Subnet Support

Controller systems and computers can detect KDS-EN3/KDS-DEC3 units in the

same subnet through the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol. If you have

units in different subnets of your network, you need to validate network discovery

in each subnet separately. For more information on using KDS-EN3 units in

different subnets in the same KDS-EN3 environment, see “Using multiple subnets”

in Kramer KDS-EN3 Manager help.
