Quick Start
This section describes the basic steps required to connect and test
components in the Premiere line. If problems occur, refer to
Step 1 – Verify Network Connections
All Premiere line components in the system must be connected to the same
local network. For best performance, connect the components to a
1000Base-T network switch. These instructions assume there is a router or
DHCP server on the network, to assign DHCP addresses. For more advanced
network configuration, see
To receive software, Movie Guide and Music Guide updates, and to
download cover art, the network must be connected to the Internet. An
Internet connection is also required when activating the system, when
downloading content from the Kaleidescape Store, and for system
monitoring.
Prior to installation, test the network connection for each Premiere line
component by connecting the network cable for the component to a
computer, being certain to disconnect the computer from any WiFi networks,
and then open a new, non-cached web page. If the page fails to load,
troubleshoot the network.
Note:
Connecting the server to a 100Base-TX switch port limits the server to one
Blu-ray zone and can slow down imports.
Step 2 – Set Up the Server
Players in the Premiere line require a connection to a server from the
Premiere line in order to operate. Always set up servers first.
