Installing the Equipment
Instruction Manual: evolution 5000 E5500 Mobile Contribution Encoder
Page 2-21
ST.TM.E10033.3
NOTE...
If the MCE is installed in a position in which the fans cannot be easily checked, check the
Fans
parameter on the
Status/System/General Menu
(see Chapter 3, Operating the Equipment
Locally) to confirm the operation of the fans. This menu also contains a
Temperature
parameter
which shows the temperature inside the MCE chassis.
4.
Confirm that the green Power LED is lit and that the red Alarm LED is
unlit.
5.
The MCE has a boot-up period of approximately 30 seconds. Stable
operation within specification is available immediately after the boot
period.
6.
The configuration of the MCE after boot-up is the same as when power
was last removed, with the following exceptions:
a)
Modulation of the IF carrier is switched off.
b)
The IF output is switched off.
c)
The IF output power level is set to ‘Low’ (or ‘Normal’, if the low and
normal settings are set to the same level).
If the MCE has been switched off, but it has not been moved and its
external connections have not been changed, the IF output and modulation
must be switched back on and the IF power level set to its previous setting
in order to re-enable transmission. See Chapter 3, Operating the
Equipment Locally.
NOTE…
External equipment such as an up-converter, video source
4
etc., may be switched on either before or
after the MCE and will not result in damage, lock-up, or otherwise interfere with the operation of the
MCE.
2.6.3
Powering Down
To power down the MCE, turn off the local mains supply to remove power
from the equipment.
2.7
Setting the Encoder IP Address
2.7.1
Methods of Changing the Encoder IP Address
The MCE IP address is normally set during manufacture. If for any reason
the IP address has to be changed, this can be achieved via the front panel
menus or by using an engineering VT100 (RS-232) terminal, connected to
the Host Status port of the MCE.
2.7.2
From the Front Panel Menus
To access the IP Address option from the front panel menus, press the IP
Address softkey in the
Setup/System/General Menu
. Edit the IP address
by use of the keypad and then press the Enter softkey.

The Alarm LED may be lit if the video source is switched on after MCE has booted to indicate that the video input is
not locked.
