BARIX EXSTREAMER Quick Install Manual - page 3
1 Installation
STEP 1
Plug a standard (straight) network cable (f, not included)
into the network port (G) of the Exstreamer and the
other end into your hub or switch. You can also use a
crossover network cable (not included) for a direct
connection to your PC.
STEP 2
i) Plug standard headphones or the earphone (d, not
included) into the headphone output (D) and put it in
your ear.
ii) Plug the RCA cable (e) into the LINE OUT outputs
(E) and connect the cable to inputs of your mixing
console or monitoring device.
STEP 3
Connect the Power supply (b) to the device (socket H)
and then to an appropriate electrical outlet.
STEP 4
i) The Exstreamer Store & Play will now acquire an IP
address and announce it over the audio outputs. DHCP
is the default method for acquiring automatically an IP
address from the DHCP server in the network.
ii) If you did not connect any audio outputs in step 2 or you
couldn’t hear the announced acquired IP address by the
device, we recommend using the “Barix Discovery Tool”
Java application (download the latest version from www.
barix.com under “Software Tools” in “Downloads”
section) on your computer (Windows, Mac or Linux)
and click the “Get” button to find out which IP address
the device has obtained (see picture at the bottom of the
page). Make sure that the Ethernet address (MAC)
matches your device (see label on the bottom of the
device).
Now that you know the IP address proceed to the next
section “Network configuration from web browser”.
If you were not able to obtain the device’s current
IP address with the previous steps see section
”Troubleshooting”.
