To install the Qualis Audio Sentinel, you mount it where it will be used,
connect it to power, network, audio source and auxiliary signals, and
configure it for operation.
For a basic installation, you can typically make the connections using
standard cabling, and you can configure the Sentinel through its user
interface on your browser. You'll need to view the Sentinel’s front panel
to determine its network address; you can also use the front panel to
view configuration settings, and modify network, time and security set-
tings.
If this is the first time you have installed a Sentinel, we suggest you per-
form a basic installation to confirm that your unit is working correctly
and to gain familiarity with its operation. Once you're comfortable with
the basics, finish your permanent installation.
Pay particular attention to these configuration steps, should they apply
to you. The instructions that follow provide more detail.
■
Static IP address. By default, the Sentinel gets its network address
automatically using DHCP services. You may prefer a static address
(you use the address to access the Sentinel, and a static address
won't change on you). You will need to contact your network adminis-
trator to determine appropriate settings for your network.
