Setting Up Your Bootloader
If the Bootloader has not already been configured by your supplier, then here are the steps you’ll need to take:
You will need:
•
The Bootloader is powered directly from the UVR1611, or in the case of a UVR61 it needs a separate low voltage
power supply
•
A USB to small USB cable
•
A Windows PC connected to the internet
•
CAT5 or CAT6 cables to connect the Bootloader(s) and STREAMbox to the network
•
Technische Alternative “Memory Manager” software on your PC
•
Technische Alternative BL-NET Bootloader manual
•
HTML and GIF files for the Bootloader
•
An IP address for the Bootloader**
** Choosing an IP Address:
By default the STREAMbox will scan IP addresses aaa.bbb.ccc.210 through aaa.bbb.ccc.219, where aaa.bbb.ccc is the
network address provided by your router. You can find this address by going to the command prompt on your network
attached Windows PC and typing “ipconfig /all” at the command prompt. You should see something like:
Take the first three octets from the Default Gateway address (192.168.12) in the above example and add .210 to the end.
Therefore the IP address for the first Bootloader in this example will be 192.168.12.210. Subsequent Bootloaders attached
to the same network will be given IP addresses of 192.168.12.211, 192.168.12.212 and so on.
Configuration:
1. Plug the UVR1611 or separate power supply into the Bootloader.
2. Connect the USB cable from your PC to the Bootloader and start the Memory Manager software (see below for
instructions on how to get Memory Manager).
3. Reset the Bootloader IP address to your chosen address. See below for detailed instructions.
4. Connect the STREAMbox to the network and power it up.
