Version: 10.0.0/4

23/68

10. The Landing Page

10.2

Landing Page Resources

For the 

A__madi4

, the landing page provides access to:

·

RAVENNA/AES67 Streaming*

 - the RAVENNA Web UI.

·

Device configuration

 - the main settings including the software version and conversion mode.

*The 

RAVENNA/AES67  Streaming

  resource  only  appears  if  the  conversion  mode  has  been  set  to  RAVENNA

Net. If there is no mode set, or the conversion mode is to/from RAVENNA Link, then this resource is hidden.

And, in service mode:

·

Configuration Backup and Restore

 - backup and restore options (for use when exchanging a unit).

·

Service Support

 - can be used  to  download  a  snapshot  of  the  settings  (useful  for  Lawo  support  if  there

is a problem with the device).

10.3

Opening a HTML Resource

In each case:

1.

Click on the headline to show (or hide) a preview:

2.

Then click on the image to open the resource in a new browser window. 

In our example, this will open the RAVENNA Web UI 

Home

 page.

Note that the previews shown in step 1 use static library images. Therefore, do not expect them to update in
real time or represent the actual settings on the connected device!
