Installing the EAS Network Receiver
The following section explains the procedure used to physically install the EAS Network Receiver.
In order to properly setup the Network Receiver the following steps must be completed in this
order. Do not skip any steps.
Note:
DO NOT
plug in the EAS Network Receiver’s power cord until
instructed to.
1. Mount the EAS Network Receiver in a standard 19 inch rack using four retaining screws.
2. Connect an antenna or audio input to each of the channels to be used. If you are using
baseband audio inputs, balanced audio is preferred. Only one source (radio or baseband
audio) can be used on a single channel.
3. Connect an Ethernet cable between the EAS Network Receiver and an active Ethernet port
on a switch or router. If the Network Receiver contains four radios, two Ethernet jacks will
be provided and both must be connected to the network.
4. Connect a serial cable (9 pin to 9 pin straight through) from the
RS-232
connection of the
EAS Network Receiver to the serial port of the PC. (This port will be used for initial
configuration.)
5. Plug the EAS Network Receiver’s power cord into the AC power input.
