LAN connection, the port requires connection to a 1000BASE-T switch in order to stream network video. The DM-NVX-350 and DM-NVX-351 can be powered by the connection of LAN 1 to a Crestron DM-PSU-ULTRA-MIDSPAN or other Crestron approved power injector (sold separately). Refer to Online Help Answer ID 5791 for additional information.
LAN 3 can be used as the primary LAN connection or can be connected to another DM-NVX device. LAN 3 can connect to a fiber-optic network using the appropriate Crestron SFP-1G transceiver module (sold separately). Refer to the SFP-1G Series Installation Guide (Doc. 7979) for information about installing Crestron SFP-1G series transceiver modules.

Configuration The DM-NVX series can be configured using the web interface, which can be accessed from a web browser by entering the IP address or hostname of the device. SIMPL Windows can also be used to configure the DM-NVX series. This section provides information about configuration of the following items using the web interface or SIMPL Windows: •...
Configuration Using the Web Interface Configure a DM-NVX device as an encoder or decoder on the Stream page of the web interface. In the Mode drop-down list, select Receiver or Transmitter. The default setting is Receiver (decoder). Stream Page - Encoder (Transmitter) or Decoder (Receiver) Configuration When a different mode is selected, a prompt appears asking for confirmation that the device be rebooted.
Configuration Using the Web Interface Configure stream statistics on the Stream page of the web interface. In the Statistics section of the page, set Statistics to Enable or Disable. To reset statistics, click Reset Statistics. For additional information, refer to the online help of the web interface. Stream Page - Statistics Configuration Configuration Using SIMPL Windows Configure stream statistics in Slot-01: Stream Transmit or Slot-02: Stream Receive.
Configuration Using SIMPL Windows Using top-level programming for the DM-NVX device, configure automatic routing of inputs. Trigger the <AutomaticRoutingEnabled> digital input join to enable automatic routing. To disable automatic routing, trigger the <AutomaticRoutingDisabled> digital input join. For additional information, refer to the SIMPL Windows help file. Video Wall Processing NOTE: Video wall processing applies only to DM-NVX devices that function as receivers.
Output Page - Video Wall Configuration Configuration Using SIMPL Windows Configure a video wall in Slot-06: HDMI OUT as follows: 1. Set the <VideoWallMode>, <Horizontal_Bezel_Compensation>, and <Vertical_Bezel_Compensation> analog input joins to the desired values. 2. Repeat step 1 for each DM-NVX receiver that connects to a display for inclusion in the video wall.
Configuration Using the Web Interface Configure underscan on the Output page of the web interface. In the HDMI Output Setting section of the page, configure underscan in the Underscan drop-down list by selecting the desired percentage or by selecting Custom. If Custom is selected, enter the desired percentage.
Output Page - HDMI Output Resolution Configuration Configuration Using SIMPL Windows Configure the output resolution in Slot-06: HDMI Out. Set the <Resolution> analog input join to the desired value. For additional information, refer to the SIMPL Windows help file. Maximum Color Depth and Color Space Mode Configure the maximum color depth (maximum bit depth supported by the output) and HDMI color space mode using the web interface or SIMPL Windows.
Output Page - HDMI Output Maximum Color Depth and Color Space Mode Configuration Using SIMPL Windows Configure maximum color depth and color space mode in Slot-06: HDMI Out. Set the <MaximumColorDepth> analog input join to the appropriate value for the maximum bit depth supported by the output.
Main Inputs Page - EDID Configuration Input-Specific Page - EDID Configuration (HDMI Input 1 Page Shown) Subscriptions NOTE: Subscriptions apply only to a DM-NVX device that functions as a receiver. Subscription of a DM-NVX transmitter to a DM-NVX receiver sets up Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) negotiation between the DM-NVX receiver and the DM-NVX transmitter.
Configuration Using the Web Interface Configure subscriptions on the Subscriptions and Routing pages of the web interface as follows: 1. On the Subscriptions page, do either of the following: a. In the Subscribed Streams section, manually add each transmitter that is to be subscribed to the receiver or load one or more existing subscription lists (*.xiolist).
2. In the Xio-Routing section of the Routing page, select the desired transmitter to be routed to the receiver. Routing Page For additional information, refer to the online help of the web interface. Configuration Using SIMPL Windows NOTE: Selection of the transmitters for subscription or selection of subscription lists can be performed using the web interface only.
Switching Subscribed Transmitters To switch transmitters that are subscribed to a receiver in a daisy chain configuration, use the web interface or SIMPL Windows. Configuration Using the Web Interface To switch subscribed transmitters in a daisy chain configuration, do the following in the Xio-Routing section of the Routing page: 1.
HDMI inputs. NOTE: Analog audio output from a DM-NVX-350 or DM-NVX-350C is functional only when the device is receiving a 2-channel stereo input signal. The DM-NVX-351 and DM-NVX-351C can derive a 2-channel downmix signal from a multichannel surround sound source.
Configuration Using the Web Interface Configure analog audio on the Routing and Output pages of the web interface as applicable: 1. On the Routing page, set Analog Audio Mode to Insert or Extract. Routing Page - Analog Audio Mode Configuration 2.
Configuration Using SIMPL Windows NOTE: To insert or extract analog audio, use the web interface. Using top-level programming for the DM-NVX device, set the <AudioSource> analog input join to Analog Audio if analog audio is to be inserted into a network video stream or the HDMI output.

HDCP 2.2 Compliance The DM-NVX series is compliant with HDCP 2.2. HDCP 2.2, commonly referred to as HDCP 2, is the next generation of HDCP (High-Definition Content Protection). Note the following about HDCP 2: • Compared to HDCP 1, HDCP 2 brings a higher level of cryptographic protection to HDMI technology.
Page 28
IGMP Snooping A DM-NVX device sends IGMP join and leave messages. NOTE: DM-NVX devices support IGMPv2 and IGMPv3 only. IGMPv1 is not supported. The IGMP snooping support version (v2 or v3) is configurable in the web interface. The Network Interface section of the Network page allows the desired version to be selected.
Page 29
In addition to building and maintaining lists of multicast group memberships, the snooping switch must also maintain a list of multicast routers. When multicast packets are forwarded, the packets should be forwarded not only on ports that have expressed joins using IGMP but also on ports to which multicast routers are attached.
