Installing a Complete System
For the console to become fully operational, there must be a valid network connection to the A__UHD Core.
·
Firstly, the mc
2
control system is hosted on the Gateserver inside the control surface. This means that
the surface can boot and run the control aspects without a Core.
·
Once a control connection to the Core is established, the audio parts of the system will start to function:
the DSP channels and routing matrix. This connection can be made using either in-band or out-of-band
control.
·
To use the local I/O, there must be a media network connection to the Core.
·
In both cases, the network configuration is handled by HOME, Lawo's IP management tool.
·
The network connections support Layer 3 routing. This allows the surface to be installed remotely from
the Core.
You can find more information in the "mc
2
Systems" documentation. In this manual, we describe the hardware.
