Step 6: Initial System Power Up
Once the PC is on and connected properly, plug the Camera/Sound Bar’s power supply’s AC cord into an AC wall
outlet. The unit will initialize and the OSD will display “Initializing” and prepare for operational use. The green
LED next to power button will light up.
When the system is finished initializing, the OSD will display the
IP
a
MAC
addresses for 20 seconds.
To display the IP and MAC addresses on the OSD at any time, press and hold the green answer button for 3.0seconds
and the IP and MAC addresses will be displayed for 20 seconds.
It is most probably a good idea to write the address down. Otherwise, the default IP address of the
GroupSTATION is 169.254.1.1 and can be accessed via its internal web pages. Remember, always involve the
IT department personnel for interfacing with any LAN/WAN. The network professionals will know how to set-up
the IP addresses in Static or DHCP modes as well as the VoIP functionality. Reinvention of the wheel is not
required.
