Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer KDS-10 4K Video Encoder/Decoder. KDS-10 is an advanced, multi-standard, dual-stream transceiver for streaming 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) video signals via Ethernet over copper cable. KDS-10 can be set as either an encoder or decoder. As an encoder, it encodes and streams one or two HDMI™ inputs over an IP network. As a decoder, it receives the encoded signal, decodes it and outputs it to an HDMI output.

KDS-10 features:

• Advanced Video Streaming Transceiver – Streams up to 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) resolution signals over a 1G network interface, when streaming one source and 4K@30Hz (4:2:0) when streaming two sources.
• Multi-Standard Video Coding – Configure the transceivers according to your needs to stream using either H.264 or H.265.
• Flexible Input and Output Options – Includes two HDMI inputs that can be streamed alternately or together.
• Streaming Support – Unicast and multicast over RTP (Real-Time Protocol).
• Flexible Analog Audio Embedding and De-embedding – When in encoding mode, you can select the balanced analog audio input to embed into the streaming HDMI output signal. When in decoding mode, you can extract the HDMI audio signal and output it as balanced analog audio.
• Convenient and Comprehensive Control – Control the unit using intuitive embedded web pages or Protocol 3000 API commands via Ethernet.
• Simple System Management – Remote system management support to enable quick and efficient remote system and device life-cycle management.

Setting a KDS-10 Encoder and Decoder System

By default, KDS-10 is configured as an encoder. When setting a KDS-10 encoder-decoder system, you need to set the decoder first.

To configure the encoder and decoder:

1. Connect the encoder-decoder system (see Connecting KDS-10 on page 6).
2. Connect a laptop to the network switch.
3. Make sure that power to the encoder is Off.

4. Turn the power on the decoder to On.

5. Define the device as a decoder (see Setting KDS-10 Configuration to Encoder/Decoder on page 19).

6. Change the decoder IP address (see Setting Device IP Address and Other IP Settings on page 23).
7. Define the source (encoder) IP address and streaming port (see Defining Decoder Streaming Settings on page 17).

We recommend that for the encoder you use the default IP address.

1. Power the encoder.
2. Make sure that the streaming channel appears on the display.

KDS-10 encoder-decoder system is configured.

Setting an Encoder with a Custom Decoder

You can use a KDS-10 encoder to stream to a custom decoder (for example, using MediaPlayer).

To configure an encoder and custom decoder:

1. Connect the encoder to the same network as the decoder.
2. Turn the encoder power On.
3. Use the following URL template to connect to a generated stream for both unicast and multicast streaming: "rtsp://ip_of_encoder:port_number/stream".
   For example, to generate a stream from the KDS-10 HDMI 1 input, enter the following: rtsp://192.168.1.20:554/stream.

Using Embedded Web Pages

The web pages enable you to control KDS-10 via the Ethernet. The web pages include all the OSD items and are accessed using a Web browser and an Ethernet connection.

Protocol 3000

Kramer devices can be operated using Kramer Protocol 3000 commands sent via serial or Ethernet ports.

Understanding Protocol 3000

Protocol 3000 commands are a sequence of ASCII letters, structured according to the following.

- Command format:

Prefix	Command Name	Constant (Space)	Parameter(s)	Suffix
#	Command	-	Parameter

- Feedback format:

Prefix	Device ID	Constant	Command Name	Parameter(s)	Suffix
~	nn	@	Command	Parameter

- Command parameters – Multiple parameters must be separated by a comma (,). In addition, multiple parameters can be grouped as a single parameter using brackets ([ and ]).

- Command chain separator character – Multiple commands can be chained in the same string. Each command is delimited by a pipe character (|).

- Parameters attributes – Parameters may contain multiple attributes. Attributes are indicated with pointy brackets (<...>) and must be separated by a period (.).

The command framing varies according to how you interface with KDS-10. The following figure displays how the # command is framed using terminal communication software (such as Hercules):
