IP250UHD Firmware Update
Prior to commencing installation of your Multicast system, it is important that the Blustream IP250UHD-TX/RX
products are pre-loaded with the latest firmware. The latest firmware can be found on the Blustream Website - see
previous page.
Updating the IP250UHD firmware can be acheived in 2 ways:
1)
Using the ‘Firmware Update’ feature in the ACM200. This is the easiest method.
2)
Using the individual IP250UHD-TX or RX web-GUI interfaces.
The below instructions are a step-by-step guide to upgrading the firmware in each Multicast product for new units
that are yet to be configured. The firmware update process must be completed one-by-one due to all products
being shipped with the same standard factory set default IP address.
Failure to do so may result in corrupting the
firmware in the products, resulting in product failure.
Prior to upgrading the firmware in Blustream Multicast products using either of the above methods it is important to
first complete the below instructions:
1)
In order to communicate with the Blustream Multicast hardware a computer will need to be physically connected
to either:
a) A PoE network switch using an Ethernet network cable which is in turn connected to the Blustream
IP250UHD-TX or -RX product
b) The Blustream IP250UHD product directly which must be powered locally using a 24-56V DC 1A power
supply (sold separately)
2)
In order to communicate with the Blustream IP250UHD product a computer must also be in the same IP range as
the Blustream IP250UHD-TX/RX's default IP address. Instructions to update a computers IP range can be found in the
‘Changing your computer IP address’ instructions towards the rear of this guide.
The default IP address of all new Multicast IP250UHD-TX/RX is:
169.254.100.254
