# ZIO PAYLOAD CONFIGURATION
### HARDWARE SETUP
### ZIO PAYLOAD CONFIGURATION
**1. Overview**
* To stream video over Ethernet, the Zio payload needs to be set up in the same network layer (IP) as the remote-running QGC.
* The default Zio payload is set to static IP address 192.168.12.240.
* There are 2 ways for Remote to receive video from Zio:
* Keep Zio's default setup (ip 192.168.12.240) andremote- Remote's IP setting at 192.168.12.200
* Change Zio's IP according to the network configuration of the running Remote system.
**2. Zio Ethernet Video Stream Protocol**
On firmware v2.0.0 or higher, Zio streams video via RTP protocol and h264 encoder.
**3. Set IP address of Zio and IP adress of UDP stream receiver**
* Take out the micro SD card from Zio
* Connect and open the SD folder
* Create file payload\_setup.txt in the micro SD card folder
> File name: payload\_setup.txt\
> File Content:
>
> 123456/\*PAYLOAD CONFIGURATION\*/\
> \# IP address of PayloadZIO\_ADDR = 192.168.12.200NETMASK = 255.255.255.0GATEWAY = 192.168.12.1
>
> On the above example
>
> * Zio IP: 192.168.12.200
* Insert the SD card containing the file payload\_setup.txt into Zio and reboot.
* Zio will set up according to the information in the file automatically.
> ***NOTE:*** when Zio starts up without detecting the file payload\_setup.txt in the memory card, Zio will automatically reset to the default IP (192.168.12.240)
### Onboard Computer Configuration
**Got video stream with QGroundControl app**
* General/Video setup as following
**Got video stream with Gstreamer**
In the case of using an embedded computer with the Gstreamer library, the video can be received via the command:
```
gst-launch-1.0 rtspsrc latency=0 location=rtsp://192.168.12.240:8554/zio ! rtph264depay ! decodebin ! videoconvert ! autovideosink sync=false
```
