There are two methods for adding new Multicast Transmitter and Receiver devices to a system, please choose one
before clicking 'Start Scan':
Method 1: connect ALL Blustream Multicast Transmitter's and Receiver's to the network switch with their factory
default IP addresses (169.254.100.254). This method will quickly configure all devices with their own individual IP
addresses based on the following:
Transmitters:
The first Transmitter will be given the IP address of 169.254.3.1.
The next Transmitter will be assigned an IP address of 169.254.3.2 and so on....
Once the IP range of 169.254.3.x is filled (254 units), the ACM200 will auto assign an IP address of
169.254.4.1 and so on...
Once the IP range of 169.254.4.x is filled the ACM200 will auto assign an IP address of 169.254.5.1 and so on until
169.254.4.254
Receivers:
The first Receiver will be given the IP address of 169.254.6.1. The next Receiver will be assigned an IP address of
169.254.6.2 and so on....
Once the IP range of 169.254.6.x is filled (254 units) the ACM200 will auto assign an IP address of
169.254.7.1 and so on...
Once the IP range of 169.254.7.x is filled the ACM200 will auto assign an IP address of 169.254.8.1 and so on until
169.254.8.254
Once complete, devices will need to be identified manually - this method will auto-assign IP addresses and ID's to
each device connected to the network switch randomly (not by switch port).
Method 2: connect each Blustream Multicast Transmitter and Receiver to the network one-by-one. The Set-up
Wizard will configure the units sequentially as they are connected / found. This method allows for the control of
the sequential assigning of IP addresses and ID's of each device - the Transmitter / Receiver units can therefore be
labelled accordingly.
