will obviously block the execution. Unfortunately, the fact that the web<br />

frontend relies on Java means that common Android or iOS devices<br />

cannot be used to configure the CW-4412.<br />

9. START – WELCOME: A welcome screen is always nice. CableWorld<br />

uses this space to give a description of the device. This may seem<br />

unnecessary, but in a crowed head-end with lots of different devices<br />

you will quickly benefit from getting such a welcome screen, since you<br />

will immediately know, which device you just connected to.<br />

10. START – QUICK SETUP:Here you can set up all relevant parameters<br />

in three tabs, which correspond to the CW-4112’s block diagram: it is<br />

composed of a LAN interface and two separate encoders. The only<br />

possible confusion should be avoided at this point: the LAN Settings<br />

refer to the IPTV output settings, not the IP of the web-frontend.<br />

11. The quick setup screen for encoder 1. Here you can specify the<br />

input source and input format, as well as the output format. Notice that<br />

the CW-4412 can down-convert a resolution, but obviously it cannot<br />

up-convert a low resolution to a higher one: just use a high enough<br />

bandwidth for best image quality and you make viewers happy.<br />

12. The setup screen of encoder 2 is naturally exactly the same as the<br />

previous, as both encoders have equal characteristics. Notice that the<br />

web-frontend will indicate if an input signal is preset, if the encoder is<br />

doing its job and if IP streaming is activated.<br />

13. START – SUMMARY: These pages give you a full insight on the CW-<br />

4412’s configuration and status. Organized in several tabs, the first one<br />

gives all information relative to the network configuration.<br />

14. Next is the tab of the first encoder. Check marks tell immediately if<br />

everything is OK.<br />

15. This tab shows information regarding the network output of encoder<br />

1. Notice the first line in the picture: in this case, the encoder was<br />

not configured to output anything over the network. Also, you can see<br />

that the configured mode was Multicast, rather than Unicast.<br />

16. The information tab of the second encoder, everything was OK.<br />

17. But I also had not activated the streaming output over the network,<br />

when this picture was taken.<br />

14<br />

18. ENCODER – INPUT SETUP: Two tabs allow the independent configuration<br />

of each encoder. Just tell what signal input should be used and<br />

if you require to down-convert a resolution, you can configure that too:<br />

imagine you want to read a Full HD resolution on the HDMI input, but<br />

only generate a MPEG-4 stream with a SD resolution: no problem for the<br />

CW-4412.<br />
