3.0 Power Test

100Mb Link LED (Amber)
Link/Activity LED (Green)
3.1. Plug in the CyberData device and monitor the LED activity above the
ethernet port on the back of the device. See the following figure:
3.2. The green Link/Activity LED blinks off once during the boot up process
when the device begins DHCP addressing and autoprovisioning attempts, and then comes on again and remains constant (solid green). The amber 100Mb Link LED may be blinking depending on the network activity.
During the initialization process, the Call Button LED should come on solid. It will then blink 10 times per second until it can find a network address and attempt autoprovisioning. This can take from 5 to 60 seconds. When the device has completed initialization, the Call Button LED will remain solid.
Note The default DHCP addressing timeout is 60 seconds. The device will
attempt DHCP addressing 12 times with a 3 second delay between tries and eventually fall back to the programmed static IP address (by default
10.10.10.10) if DHCP addressing fails. The DHCP Timeout is configurable in the device's Network settings.
3.3. When the device has completed the initialization process, quickly press and
release the RTFM switch (SW1 button) to announce the IP address.
This concludes the power test. Go to Section 4.0, "InformaCast
Configuration File Retrieval".

4.0 InformaCast Configuration File Retrieval

4.1. DHCP should be enabled. After the device initializes, it will send a broadcast to the DHCP server to ask for the location of its InformaCastSpeaker.cfg configuration file.

4.2. SLP or TFTP?

• SLP should be enabled on InformaCast version 5.0.4 or higher. SLP is an InformaCast protocol introduced in InformaCast version 5.0.4. The device will retrieve its configuration file from an InformaCast server folder specified by SLP. SLP method is preferred.
• TFTP servers may be used instead of SLP. In this alternate scenario, DHCP option 150 is required to provide the device with the address of the TFTP server. Otherwise, the device will be unable to retrieve its configuration file.
Note The device and InformaCast server should be on the same
subnet during the device's initial configuration if it cannot access the VLANs upon which the InformaCast Server and DHCP servers are located. It may be necessary to manually configure your switch port to allow access to the VLAN.

5.0 Device Identification and Testing

5.1. Ensure the InformaCast Server has detected a new device.

5.2. Test the newly detected device.

5.3. Add the newly detected device to the InformaCast Server.
