5 Installation
Once the Barix Instreamer is connected to your network,
it will automatically receive an IP address from your DHCP
server (Internet gateways run usually a DHCP server).
If no DHCP server can be reached, our IPzator
function
will search the network for a free IP address.
The Barix Instreamer will announce the IP address using
SonicIP technology.
5.1 Connecting the Barix Instreamer
to your audio equipment
Connecting audio sources is possible by offering three
different audio input options:
For connection to an analog audio source, the Barix
Instreamer features stereo RCA inputs (D+E). Simply
connect the included stereo RCA cable (d ) to the audio
output of your source device.
For connection to a coaxial digital audio source, the Barix
Instreamer features a coaxial S/PDIF input (B).
The Coax cable is not included.
For connection to an optical digital audio source, the Barix
Instreamer features an optical S/PDIF input (C).
The optical cable is not included.
5.2 Connecting the Barix Instreamer
to your power supply
Plug the included power supply (b) into the power jack (F)
of the Barix Instreamer and the other end into the power
outlet of the wall.
5.3 Connecting the Barix Instreamer
to your network
STEP 1
Plug the included network cable (f) into the network port
of the Barix Instreamer (A) and the other end into your
hub or switch.
STEP 2
Plug the included earphone (c) into the HP output (2 ) and
put it in your ear.
Get the pen and paper ready to write down the IP address
that will be announced in step 5.
The announcement of the IP address is called SonicIP.
STEP 3
Plug the power supply (b) into the
power jack (F) of the
Barix Instreamer and the other end into the power outlet
of the wall.
NOTE
When power cycling the Barix Instreamer we recommend
to disconnect/connect the power supply at the wall socket.
To prevent electrical overload of the device the power
supply should only be plugged into the wall socket with the
power supply connected to the Barix Instreamer first.
STEP 4
The Barix Instreamer will now search for a DHCP server
to get an IP address and announce this address over
the earphone.
Example: 192.168.0.12 (Voice: one nine two dot …)
Make sure you write this IP address down. If no DHCP
server is found then our IPzator
function will search the
network for a free IP address (this could take up to 5
minutes).
NOTE
Your Barix Instreamer is now ready to start working, we
recommend, however, that you set a Static IP address so
that the IP address will not change every time you power
up the Barix Instreamer.
See section 9.1 how to set a Static IP.
