FMA-LG101 Configuration

Once you have completed the required steps to set the PC’s network connections, you can update the FMA-LG101 using either the FTG Configuration Application software (v5.0.0 or higher) or the FMA-LG101 software web page.

Refer to the FMA-LG101 Installation & Configuration Guide for detailed instructions.

Note: The RF distribution system must support 50.5 MHz RF transmission (downstream) from the head end to the FTG device(s).

FMA-LG101 Configuration Prerequisites

• The FMA-LG101 must be installed in the equipment rack prior to conﬁ guration (see FMA-LG101 installation and cabling information on previous pages).

• You will need to know the IP address of the FMA-LG101 (see “FMA-LG101 Ethernet

Connection/Network Options” on previous page).

Network Ethernet connection: Consult the network administrator to obtain the IP ad-

dress that has been assigned by the DHCP server to the FMA-LG101.

Direct Ethernet connection: The FMA-LG101 uses its default IP address (10.20.1.120).

• Create a new or identify an existing FMA Conﬁ guration (.fma) ﬁ le to use for updating the FMA-LG101 (see the FMA-LG101 Installation & Configuration Guide, as necessary).

FMA-LG101 Configuration Overview (FTG Configuration Application)

1. Launch the FTG Conﬁ guration Application (v5.0.0 or higher), and access the FMA

Conﬁ guration Utility.

2. Set the FMA Utility’s IP address.

3. “Write” the appropriate FMA Conﬁ guration ﬁ le to the FMA-LG101.

4. Set the FMA clock. (Note that date and time must be set on the PC running the FTG

Configuration Application prior to an attempt to set the FMA clock.)

5. Set the FMA broadcast rate.

6. Connect the FMA-LG101 to the RF distribution system.

7. Verify that the 50.5 MHz RF signal level is between +3 dBmV and +10 dBmV at the

FTG device(s).

FMA-LG101 Configuration Overview (FMA-LG101 Software Web Page)

1. Launch a web browser, type the appropriate IP address in the browser’s address bar,

and press Enter.

2. Set the date and time parameters and the broadcast rate, and then update the FMA-

LG101.

3. Update the FMA-LG101 with an FMA Configuration file.

4. Connect the FMA-LG101 to the RF distribution system.

5. Verify that the 50.5 MHz RF signal level is between +3 dBmV and +10 dBmV at the

FTG device(s).
