Discover the IP Addresses of the ATSC Tuner Modules
When the ATSC-8 is shipped from Technicolor, it will be in DHCP mode and expect to get
assigned an IP address from a router. Since our connection diagrams and common
installation practices do not include a router or DHCP server, the IP addresses may not be
assigned. The ATSC-8 will also generate an Auto-IP address such that a PC connected
directly to the unit without a router can communicate to the device.
Each ATSC-8 has 4 tuning modules containing 2 tuners each. Each Tuning module can have
two unique IP addresses, so in total, the ATSC-8 will have 8 unique IP addresses (two for
each tuning module). When first connecting to the ATSC-8 or to see what the IP addresses of
the tuners are, you can press the DISCOVER button on the bottom of the ATSC page. The
following is a result from a Discover inquiry. One address for each module is the Auto-IP
address assigned by the module itself, the other can be Auto-IP, static or assigned by DHCP.
This shows that 8 total IP addresses were found, and since each of the 4 tuner modules has 2
possible IP addresses, the 2 addresses are displayed.
Changing the IP Addresses of the Tuners
You may change the IP addresses of the tuners to a range within the same IP configuration of
the COM1000 by using the SET button on the ATSC page. You must first type in the base
number for the assignment, then hit the SET button. For instance, if you’d like the IP
addresses to be in a range starting at 192.168.3.50, then use 192.168.3.50 as the base
address.
