    The unit has no user‑serviceable parts inside! If you have a problem the unit must be returned to Wheatstone Corporation for repair. Installation Tips • Place any surge protection circuits as close as possible to the LIO‑48 or other device being protected.
  • Page 11: Energizing

    G E N E R A L I N F O R M A T I O N Energizing Once it has been installed in the rack, the LIO-48 may be energized by connecting the factory supplied power cord to a source of AC power. The AC line input voltage is permitted to be between 90 and 260VAC, 50 or 60Hz.

    G E N E R A L I N F O R M A T I O N destination wired to an output jack is an “output,” control surface fader channels would not normally be considered “outputs” but they are “destinations” in the WheatNet‑IP system, because you can route a WheatNet‑IP audio stream to them.

    G E N E R A L I N F O R M A T I O N Network Switches The next component of the WheatNet-IP system is your network switch(es). These are standard Ethernet devices that form the core of your LAN. You may already have a suitable one in place in your facility.

    F R O N T P A N E L O P E R A T I O N Front Panel Operation First Time Power Up With the LIO-48 disconnected from the network, apply power by connecting its AC power cord to the AC power source. You will see a test pattern of LEDs on the front panel, and there will be a sequence of characters on the backlit display.
  • Page 21: Making The Basic Network Settings

    F R O N T P A N E L O P E R A T I O N Making The Basic Network Settings Let’s say, for our example, that the LIO-48 we are currently setting up is going to use an IP address of 192.168.87.236, a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, and a gateway setting of 192.168.87.1.
  • Page 22: Regarding The Lio-48 As Part Of A System

    F R O N T P A N E L O P E R A T I O N At this point you will need to power cycle the LIO-48 to apply the new settings. Disconnect the AC power cord, wait 10 seconds, then reconnect the AC power to the unit.
