Annex A: IP management and recovery

Through Armonía Pro Audio Suite you can easily set the IP
configuration of your M Series amplifiers as long as they are in
DHCP or are configured with a static IP on the same Armonía
subnet (see Section 10.1). It may happen that a static IP in a
different subnet with respect to Armonía has been assigned
to your M Series HDSP+ETH amplifier (i.e. 10.0.x.y versus
169.254.x.y): if this is the case Armonía does not recognize the
amplifier. You have to reset the IP configuration of your M Series
HDSP+ETH amplifier.
In order to reset the IP configuration of your M Series
HDSP+ETH amplifier outside the Armonía environment, follow
next instruction.
A.1 Setting an IP policy on Adau based devices
with an external Lantronix tool
M Series HDSP+ETH amplifiers come with one rear RJ45 port
for remote device communication, using the IP layer and the UDP
protocol. Factory default settings are DHCP/AutoIP, but a fixed IP
policy can also be adopted.
A.1.1

Reset IP configuration

Adau based devices can be set up with a static IP (or any other
IP policy) with an external software programmer provided by
Lantronix™. In order to set up the IP address please follow the
following steps:
1. Download and install the DeviceInstaller™ software from the
Lantronix Web Site on your PC. Please refer to Lantronix
documentation.
2. Connect the device to your PC.
3. Shutdown any M Series client (Armonía or third-party client).
4. Launch the program: it should automatically scan your
network. If not, manually initiate the scan by clicking the
Search button.
