About This Guide
This user guide describes the LiveU LU200 unit and provides basic operation
information for camera operators. This user guide describes the LU200
hardware and how to use it in order to broadcast live streaming video.
NOTES
Advanced operations intended for technical personnel and system
administrators are outside of the scope of this user guide.
The LiveU 200 can operate in Video mode or in DataBridge (DB)
mode (w
hich activates the LU200 to operate as a data bridge). When
operating in DataBridge mode, some LU200 functionality is not
available. For more details about DataBridge mode, see Chapter 5,
DataBridge Operation on page 51.
The guide contains the following chapters:
•Chapter 1, Introducing the LU200, page 9, introduces the LU200 unit
and describes its hardware components.
•Chapter 2, Getting Started, page 15, describes how to get started using
the LU200, including powering on, connecting the camera, selecting the
profile, delay and channel and broadcasting (playing).
•Chapter 3, LU200 User Interface, page 37, describes the main LU200
screen and the options that it provides.
•Chapter 4, Interrupted Feedback (IFB), page 49, describes the
LU200’s IFB feature and how to set it up. IFB provides a unidirectional
audio channel from the LU2000 to LU200 unit operators in the field.
•Chapter 5, DataBridge Operation, page 51, describes LiveU’s
DataBridge solution and how to operate the LU200 unit as a data bridge.
•Chapter 6, FAQs, page 57, answers various frequently asked questions
about the LU200.
•Appendix A, Safety and Maintenance, page 63, describes how to
maintain the LU200 unit and how to handle potential hazards.
•Appendix B, Limitation of Liability and Warranty, page 67, describes
the limitations on liability and warranty.
•Appendix C, FCC Compliance, page 69, provides the FCC compliance
information.

Introducing the LU200
This chapter introduces the LU200 unit and describes its hardware
components.
Overview
The LU200 is a compact, lightweight unit that enables you to transmit
high-quality HD/SD video from diverse locations, while adapting to dynamic
network conditions. The LU200 supports two 4G (LTE)/3G cellular links, a WiFi
link and a LAN link. It can be seamlessly connected to most commercially
available cameras and comes with an easy-to-use interface.

NOTE
The LU200 is provided with a pouch.

The LU200 provides two internal cellular modems, as well as a WiFi and a GPS
interface, both of which have internal integrated antennas. In addition, two
external cellular modems can be connected via USB for a total of six interfaces
on the unit.
After the LU200 powers up, it dials (connects) its modems to various networks
(including WiFi) and combines their bandwidth into a single consolidated
broadband uplink connection. The LU200 can then encode incoming video into
an H.264 stream and transmit it over the aggregated bandwidth.
NOTE
Xtender interfaces are supported for LAN interfaces only.
