WARNING
THIS DEVICE MUST BE GROUNDED
IMPORTANT
Power requirements for electrical equipment vary from area to area. Please ensure that the LE100 meets the power requirements in the surrounding area. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician or a Doremi Labs dealer.
Power Ratings
Power Supply: 80 PLUS-certified Voltage: AC 100-240 V Current: 1.5 to 3.5 A Frequency: 60 to 50 Hz Total DC Output: 250 W Idle Consumption: 28W Peak Consumption: 41W
WARNING: Multiple sources of supply. Disconnect all sources before servicing.
Rack Mount and Thermal Information
 Maximum operating ambient temperature is 35°C or 95°F.  Never restrict the air flow through the devices’ fan or vents.  When installing equipment into a rack, distribute the units evenly. Otherwise, hazardous
conditions may be created by an uneven weight distribution.
Connect the unit only to a properly rated supply circuit. Reliable earthing (grounding) of
rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.

PROTECTING YOURSELF AND THE LE100
Never touch the AC plug with wet hands. Always disconnect the LE100 from the power supply by pulling on the plug, not the cord. Allow only a Doremi Labs dealer or qualified professional engineer to repair or re-assemble the LE100. Apart from voiding the warranty, unauthorized engineers might touch live internal parts and receive a serious electric shock. Do not put, or allow anyone to put any object, especially metal objects, into the LE100. Only use an AC power supply. Never use a DC power supply.
If water or any other liquid is spilled into or onto the LE100, disconnect the power and call a Doremi Labs dealer. The unit must be well ventilated and away from direct sunlight. To avoid damage to internal circuitry, as well as the external finish, keep the LE100 away from direct sources of heat (heater vents, stoves, radiators). Avoid using flammable aerosols near the LE100. They can damage the surface area and may ignite. Do not use denatured alcohol, paint thinner or similar chemicals to clean the LE100. This can damage the unit.
Modification of this equipment is dangerous and can result in the functions of the LE100 being impaired. Never attempt to modify the equipment in any way. In order to ensure optimum performance of the LE100, select the setup location carefully and make sure the equipment is used properly. Avoid setting up the LE100 in the following locations:
In a humid or dusty environment In a room with poor ventilation On a surface which is not level Inside a moving vehicle where it will be subject to vibration In an extremely hot or cold environment
Caution
Battery is located on the motherboard Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions
For LE100-SR, due to the presence of Satellite card, equipment is intended to be installed by a service person and has installation instructions that require the equipment to be connected to a socket-outlet with a protective earthing connection.

The LE100 is a device designed to receive, record, decode and distribute live MPEG2 or H.264 media streams. There are two models available, LE100 and LE100-SR. LE100 accepts streaming media in an MPEG2 Transport stream via Ethernet. In addition to Ethernet streams, LE100-SR contains an optional satellite input and can receive DVB-S/DVB-S2 signals via satellite feed.
Both LE100 models can save the incoming streams and wrap them in Digital Cinema Package (DCP) format. It can record and play DCP's simultaneously allowing the user to play the files at a later time or move the DCP's to another screen for an encore performance.
Alternatively, MPEG2 and H.264 DCP’s created with Doremi Content Manager software can be
ingested via USB. All content on the LE100 is stored on the internal hard drive and video decoding is performed by the hardware. The LE100 can output directly to a display device through HDMI or 3GSDI. LE100's can also re-distribute or forward the incoming stream to other devices via Ethernet.
Configuring the LE100 network consists of three methods, which includes the Web GUI,
Command Line Interface (CLI), and USB flash drive (mainly used to “rescue” the device in case
of a system failure). Note: For the purpose of this manual, everything applicable to the LE100 model is also
applicable to the LE100-SR model, unless indicated otherwise.
2.1 Device Overview
The LE100 has several ports on the back panel that perform specific functions:
2x HDMI Out 2x 3G-SDI Out 4x AES Digital Audio Out 2x USB Ports 2x Ethernet Ports Serial Port

3 Configuration
3.1 Items to Configure
All the items mentioned below must be configured for the LE100 to work properly:
Network configuration:
o IP address o Netmask o Gateway o Unicast or Multicast UDP/IP
3.2 Hardware Configuration
Before beginning the network configuration, the user must set up the LE100's hardware and cable connections.
Once the LE100 is taken out of the package, set it on a firm surface and connect the
single power supply cable from the unit to a reliable power source.
Connect an Ethernet cable from the LE100 to the desired network.
Depending on the specific setup and intended usage, one or more of the following connections can be made:
Connect a Serial port cable from the LE100 to the computer. Connect the HDMI cable from the LE100 to the display device. Connect the HDSDI cable from the LE100 to the display device. Connect the digital audio cable from the LE100 to the desired audio device.

4 Logging into LE100
Once the hardware is set up and the PC's IP configuration is complete, the user can use one of several methods to log into the unit. Such as:
4.1 Logging into the LE100 via Web GUI
First, open a web browser and type the IP address of the LE100.
o The default IP address for Ethernet port 1 of the LE100 is 192.168.9.10. o Set your computer's IP address in the range '192.168.9.xx' (with xx being in the
range 2-254 except 10 when using default IP).
Note: If the IP address was changed, use the IP address that was assigned to the LE100 instead of the default IP.
The following screen will appear:
Figure 4: Login Window
Type the username and password in the fields provided (Figure 4).
o Log in as "admin". o Default password for "admin": "1234"
Note: The "admin" password can be changed in the web interface or by using the following command and following the on-screen instructions: # passwd
