Installation and Initial Setup
Installation
LA-5300 is a 1RU product intended to be permanently installed in standard 19 ½"
equipment rack and secured with four standard rack screws. LA-5300 is fan cooled
with air intakes and exhausts located on the side of the unit just behind the front
panel, but whenever possible, it is recommended to leave 1RU of empty space above
and below the unit.
Power
Plug the supplied IEC power cords into the LA-5300 and connect each to different
mains power sources. Remember that while redundant supplies do protect against
the unit losing power in the event of a PSU failure, the loss of mains supply voltage is
a bigger concern. Accordingly, each supply should be fed from a different circuit
equipped with adequate surge protection and fitted with an uninterruptable power
supply (UPS).
Boot Up and Splash Screen
The unit will power up as soon as the power cords are connected, and using the
Reset button (A) is not required on initial startup. The front panel of the unit will
remain dark during most of the boot process but the Status LED (D) will light. Once
the boot process is complete, the Home Screen will appear and the Status LED will
turn green.
Setting IP Addresses
LA-5300 ships with DHCP enabled and will automatically retrieve an IP address
when connected to a network with a DHCP server.
Important!
Both the Control and AES67 connections must be connected to
1000BASE-T (Gigabit) switch ports but should not be connected to a
common network with the same netmask/subnet. If both connections
must be on a common network, make the connection to the AES67 port
and set the values of each Control port field to 0.0.0.0.
