3.0 Power Test

100Mb Link LED
Link/Activity LED
3.1. Plug in the CyberData device and monitor the LED activity above the
ethernet port on the back of the Intercom. See the following figure:
3.2. The green 100Mb Link LED blinks off once during the boot up process
when the device beings DHCP addressing and autoprovisioning attempts, and then comes on again and remains constant (solid green). The yellow Link/Activity 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 blink twice and then 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 Intercom has completed the initialization process, press and hold
the RTFM switch (SW1 button) for 3 seconds 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 Singlewire-Enabled Singlewire InformaCast Outdoor Intercom 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.
