HARDWARE INSTALLATION
To successfully install the 7882DEC-H264HD-IPASI, you will require:
1. An unused IP address on the network
2. An Evertz serial cable
3. VLPro Server IP address
Before handling the card it is important to minimize the potential effects of static electricity. It is
therefore recommended that an ESD strap be worn. Locate on a frame chassis a vacant slot. Unpack
the 7882DEC-H264HD-IPASI and separate the rear panel from the main card. Locate the slot on the
rear of the rack and remove the blanking panel. Insert the rear panel into the back of the chassis and
secure using the two screws provided.
Before inserting the front card, connect the serial cable to the board using the serial cable provided.
Now insert the 7882DEC-H264HD-IPASI card into the corresponding front slot ensuring the card lines
up with the slot runners on the bottom and the top of the chassis. Push the card into the slot ensuring
that when it mates with the rear panel is has been firmly pushed into a seated position. This can be
confirmed when the connectivity lights for the Ethernet port are illuminated. Do not connect the HD/SDI
Input cable to the rear card until the initial configuration has been completed (failure to do this could
cause unwanted network issues).
