SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Please read all instructions before attempting to unpack, install or operate this equipment and before connecting the power supply. Please keep the following in mind as you unpack and install this equipment: • Always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons.
1. INTRODUCTION The inherent routing flexibility of Audio over IP (AoIP) provides great advantages over traditional audio cabling solutions while using highly cost effective Cat.5e cable. This greatly reduces the cost of wiring large systems and improves control convenience. This unit takes full advantage of the core benefits provided by AoIP and adds support for dual audio output formats, including both analogue (balanced speaker output) and digital (optical S/PDIF).
5. FEATURES Analogue output: 1×Balanced stereo output Digital output: 1×Optical output Reception of extended audio and RS-232 over TCP/IP in unicast (point- to-point) or multicast (single-to-many) modes Reception of extended AoIP signals can be further extended (up to 100m per segment) by using gigabit network switches.
6. OPERATION CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS 6.1 Front Panel AUDIO SELECT OPT. CH - CH + MUTE LINE LINK MUTE VOL. PWR LED: This LED will illuminate to indicate the unit is on and receiving power. LINK LED: While the receiver is attempting to establish a network connection the LINK LED will flash.
6.2 Rear Panel RS-232 TX RX DC 5V AUDIO OPTICAL LAN(POE) AUDIO L/R OUT 5-pin Terminal Block: Connect to powered speakers or an amplifier for analogue stereo audio output. OPTICAL OUT Port: Connect to powered speakers or an amplifier for digital audio output using an appropriate optical cable.
6.4 WebGUI Control Device Discovery Please obtain the “Device Discovery” software from your authorised dealer and save it in a directory where you can easily find it. Connect the unit and your PC/Laptop to the same active network and execute the “Device Discovery” software. Click on “Find Devices on Internet”...

2) WebGUI Hotkey: Once you are satisfied with the network settings, you may use them to connect via Telnet or WebGUI. The network information window provides a convenient link to launch the WebGUI directly. WebGUI Overview All major functions of the unit, including status, streaming method, streaming channel selection, input selection, volume/mute control, Ethernet settings, and reset/firmware functions are controllable via multiple tabs in the WebGUI interface allowing for reasonably intuitive...
6.4.1 System Tab The System tab contains four windows that provide access to firmware version information, a firmware update interface, utilities for rebooting and resetting the unit, Telnet command entry, and a variety of statistics and information about the operational state of the unit. 1) Version Information: This window displays detailed information about the current firmware version.
Page 13
3) Utilities: The Utilities window allows users to reset the unit back to the factory defaults by clicking “Factory Default”. The unit may be rebooted (without resetting settings) by pressing the “Reboot” button. Finally, individual Telnet commands may be sent to the unit by using the “Console API Command”...

4) Statistics: The Statistics window shows all available information about the operational status of the unit, including current Host ID Name, Ethernet information, MAC address, unicast/multicast mode, link status and mode.
6.4.2 Network Tab The Network tab provides controls over the receiver’s broadcast reception channel, IP configuration, and network broadcast mode. Changes made to the network settings will require a reboot of the unit. After clicking on “Apply” please follow the reboot instructions in the WebGUI. Note: If the IP address is changed then the IP address required for WebGUI access will also change accordingly.

from the transmitter using the selected broadcast channel. The available channel range is from 0 to 255. 2) IP Setup: This section allows for configuration of the IP acquisition mode and Ethernet settings of the unit. It also provides an easy way to find the physical unit when installed with many other similar units.
6.4.3 Functions Tab The Functions tab provides control over the receiver’s audio source selection, audio output mute/unmute, analogue audio volume, front panel locks and serial control extension configuration. Changes made to these settings typically require a reboot of the unit. After clicking on “Apply”...

1) Audio over IP: This section allows control over selection of the input source, enabling/disabling the audio mute, changing the microphone volume, and front panel locks. Audio Select: Select between the optical, line or mic inputs on the transmitter. Note: Input selection is only available when linked directly to a compatible dedicated audio transmitter.
6.5 Telnet Control Before attempting to use Telnet control, please ensure that both the unit and the PC are connected to the same active networks. Start your preferred Telnet/Console client, or use the built in client provided by most modern computer operating systems. After starting the client, connect by using the current IP address of the unit and port 23 (if the communication port number used by the unit has not been changed previously).
