Warning!

To meet safety regulations for leakage current, connect the FS2 dual power

supplies to separate branch circuits.

Warning!

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the

device has been damaged in any wav, such as power-supply cord or plug is

damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the device, the

device has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has

been dropped.

Installation

Summary

All the steps of installation and configuration are documented in this chapter

and are summarized as follows:

1. Unpack the shipping box, removing the FS2 and two power cords.

2. Install any physical options, such as fiber optic I/O modules or Dolby

I/O cards.

3. Mount the physical chassis as desired: front rack, rear rack, or deskmount. If

you are mounting multiple FS2 units, try to place them visually in the same

area so you can use an attached computer to turn on and see the ID LED of

the FS2 you’re communicating with. For physical installation details, see

“FS2

Chassis Installation” on page 43.

4. Connect the two FS2 power cords to mains AC. For redundancy, use both

power supplies and connect them to separate branch circuits so that the FS2

will continue to operate even if a circuit breaker opens on one branch.

5. If you plan to use remote control, connect your computer to the FS2 directly

using an Ethernet cable, or connect both the computer and the FS2 to a local

area network through an appropriate hub or router. Also set the FS2 IP

address in the menus, and then use a computer to test (ping) the FS2 over

the network connection to verify communication. For details, see

“Network

Connection” on page 45.

6. Install a web browser on the computer, if not already present, for accessing

the FS2 web pages. You can access the pages simply by entering the FS2 IP

address in the browser address field. See

“Web Browser Control” on page 48

for details.

7. Connect the FS2 to system audio and video sources, including VTR(s),

monitors, DVD players, video switchers, and audio mixers. For details, see

“System Cabling” on page 50.

8. Test the FS2 with all of your devices to verify everything is working.
