LGR User Guide and Technical Manual
LGR and AirStream System Setup
This section describes how to confi gure an AirStream/LiveGear Receiver pair and begin
streaming video over a cellular network as quickly as possible using the default settings.
After receiving an AirStream and LGR, the fi rst device to be confi gured should be the
LGR. This process consists of setting the WAN IP address of the LGR and depending
on your network setup, potentially setting up port forwarding. After confi guring the LGR,
the AirStream can be setup to stream to your confi gured LGR. Consult the
AirStream
User Guide and Technical Manual
for more information about the transmitter-receiver
interface.
Initial Setup
It is recommended that you preconfi gure the transmitter and receiver together in the
studio, to ensure that the initial settings are analogous . It is also suggested that you
test the system with a live video feed prior to sending a transmitter team to a remote
location. The initial steps for the confi guration procedure are as follows:
Live Gear Receiver
[
LGR-1000
]
-
Refer to the
f
igure above.
Connect AC Power Supply.
Connect Video Output [SD/HD OUT / 1 to monitor].
Connect Ethernet Cable [WAN port to router].
Set the rear Power Supply switch to
On
position.
AirStream
Transmitter
Install SIM cards [up to 6]
Install external antennas [Wi-Fi or International Confi guration].
Connect video source [on left side of transmitter].
Connect power supply [battery or DC adapter].
Confi guration Steps to Stream Video:
1.
Connect a laptop to the four port switch on the rear panel and apply power to the
LGR by setting the Power Supply rocker switch on the rear panel and by pressing
the front panel
Power push button
. Check the LCD to ensure that the
initialization process has completed.
2.
Browse to the default IP address of the LGR on the LAN at http://
192.168.2.200
.
Log in using the UID/PW:
admin
/

.
3.
Browse to Setup > Network Settings
4.
Set your IP address information in the WAN Confi guration box and click
Save
.
NOTE
:
If you are placing the LGR behind a router/fi rewall, you will need to
forward at a minimum, port 4001 TCP/UDP to the LGR. You can change the
LGR’s listening port on the Setup > LGR Inputs page. If you do change the port,
be sure to change the port on the AirStream as well.
