source device, it is recommended that for streaming and programming purposes, you assign a Static IP
Address to the unit via the browser-based UI.

navigate throughout the application. Located on the right side of the browser window is the Active frame
which displays the pages corresponding to the currently selected option from within the Navigation
frame.

Navigation Bar.
This page is used to assign the method of communication used by the target MAX unit.
Note that both the default IP Configuration setting is DHCP and the corresponding read-only
fields display the MAX unit’s communication parameters obtained from the DHCP Server
during the initial setup.
2. Click on the Static radio box to begin entering the previously obtained Static IP Address
information (typically provided by your Network Administrator).

corresponding fields on this page.
