Model 5402
DANTE LEADER CLOCK WITH GNSS SYNCHRONIZATION
addressing special applications. In most cases, the Model
5402’s default settings would be appropriate and should
be utilized.
Model 5402 Configuration
Many Model 5402 Dante Leader Clock operating param-
eters can be configured using the management system’s
webpages that are provided by way of one of the unit’s Eth-
ernet ports. The specific port utilized for management will
depend on the network configuration that is selected using
the Dante Controller application. A standard web browser
is all that is required to utilize the menu webpages.
Several key network configuration parameters can also
be viewed and revised using the Model 5402’s front-panel
graphics display and associated pushbutton switches.
Refer to Appendix D for details on which parameters can
be revised in this manner.
Management IP Address
It’s easy to identify the Model 5402’s management IP ad-
dress by way of the front-panel display. If the screen saver
function is active, as it will be in most situations, one of the
six pages that will automatically display will show the cur-
rent management IP address. As such, a user can simply
observe the sequencing menu pages and watch for the
one that displays the current management IP address. If
it’s desired that the current management IP address be
continuously displayed then the Enter pushbutton switch
on the front panel should be pressed. This will stop the
screen saver function and cause the current management
IP address to display. It will also allow the various menu
pages to be accessed using the up, down, left, and right
pushbutton switches. Simultaneously pressing the left and
right arrow buttons will cause the screen saver mode to
begin again. The screen saver mode will also automatically
start two minutes after the last press of any of the front-
panel pushbutton switches.
How the management Ethernet port obtains its IP address
will depend on the management interface configuration set-
ting. The default method is automatic so the Model 5402’s
management port will first try to obtain an IP address using
DHCP. If that is not successful an IP address will be as-
signed using the link-local protocol. An address of 169.254.
x.x will indicate that an IPv4 address was established using
link-local. The Model 5402 may also have been configured
to use a manual (fixed or static) IP address. The front-panel
display and associated pushbuttons, or the Model 5402’s
management webpages, can be used to review and/or
make changes to the management IP address and related
parameters.
Accessing the Management
Webpages
To access the Model 5402’s home webpage, type the unit’s
management IP address into a browser’s search bar. (It’s
possible that some browsers may require including the text
http://
followed by the IP address.) Of course, the computer
associated with the browser must be on the same LAN and
subnet as the Model 5402.
