OMNIA MPX NODE MANUAL

2

Quick Start Instructions

MPX Node is a computing appliance that interfaces to audio processing and FM transmis-
sion equipment. Installation and proper operation requires you have some basic knowl-
edge of computer networking, firewalls, port management, and other general computer
skills, in addition to your radio broadcast knowledge.

You are probably anxious to get your MPX Node(s) running. This section will help you
get going.

MPX Nodes are controlled through an HTML5 web interface. In order to access this
interface you need to log on to the unit by entering its IP address in a (modern) browser
(our developers use Chrome for product testing). For convenience, both Encoder and
Decoder nodes are set from the factory to obtain get IP addresses using DHCP.

Obtaining an IP address

1.

Plug your MPX Node into a network providing DHCP (either Net1 or Net2 ports can
be used, but you should use Net1 as your primary).

2.

Power your unit up

3.

Using the top control button on the front panel, scroll through the display pages to
the Network port connected to your router. You should see an (up) indication, and a
DHCP assigned IP address. In our example below, the network is plugged into Net1.
(UP) indicates that your network is connected while (DN) indicates it is down.
