Initial power and Ethernet control connections.
When your receiver ships from Wave Central, it is pre-programmed with
your frequency band (16 pre-sets). The receiver’s services are tested and
verified prior to shipment. The parameters will be explained later in this
document. As you are aware the receiver can be programmed via the LCD
touch display screen.
When the receiver is final system tested (FST) all control parameters and
operational status is set and verified via the Web browser. This connectivity
is via the control RJ-45 top jack on the rear of the back panel. The
receiver’s P setting below, as shipped.

Other Microsoft OS’ should set up similarly.
The above menu screen shots take you to the location to enter the P
address for your computer, subnet mask and default gateway. When set,
press OK. Enter the P address into your web browser and you should be

Changing the IP address to interface within your
facility to another computer
f you plan to integrate the receiver into to the engineering Ethernet for set-
up and control, the P parameters must be entered via the LDC touch
screen display. Should you not want to change the network adapter
parameters on a computer that is already set up on engineering or specific
network execute the following. Unit MUST be power cycled to take effect.
From the main menu on the previous page select GLOBAL SETT NGS. The
GENERAL SETT NGS Setting menu is displayed.
From the GENERAL SETT NGS menu push the button and press over to
the P SETT NGS menu. From this menu select the which will bring up the
menu below.
Enter the desired P address. Then press button. The WARN NG
message appears. f additional P parameter need to be changed wait until
the WARN NG message disappears. The new P address will then be
displayed.
The next entry is for the NETWORK MASK and GATEWAY address. These
addresses will be entered in the same sequence. Pressing the button will
delete the entry and return to the main P SETT NG menu.

This is what P settings will be displayed on the LCD touch screen on the
receiver as shipped from Wave Central.
The next steps:
Prior to the sales process and subsequent purchase(s) all aspects of your
expectation of this receiver and any other Wave Central products in your
operational environment will have been fully explored. Most of the AX S
receivers are part of a system consisting of a camera transmitter(s),
camera paint and antennas. The antenna system requires the use of Block
Down Converters (BDC). ntermediate Frequencies (70-850MHz) are
specific for the operating band (5.8GHz) in this receiver as described in this
document.
This receiver is recommended to be operated in a cool dry controlled
environment where partible. t is not water proof.
Connections to and from the receiver are via supplied external 12 VDC
power supply, Ethernet, XLR analog audio and BNC 50 Ohm female F nput
(1-8) BDC bulk head connectors. Coax cable from the BDC is cable with 50
Ohm BNC connectors. Wave Central recommends Belden 1694A. Pre-
made and tested F cables are available from Wave Central for an
additional charge.
All video in and out coax cable connectors are 75 Ohm. Particular attention
MUST be adhered to when using coax connectors. The 50 & 75 Ohm
connectors are different. Pairing a connector with the incorrect mate can
cause damage to the connector and reduce efficiency of the circuity
involved.

The Web Browser
Connection to the AXRX3-6 receiver is via Ethernet, describe earlier in this
document. Once the receiver has completed it boot sequence, this screen
will be displayed.
Open the internet explorer on the attached computer and type
192.168.1.20 into the browser address line and hit enter. The following
screen will appear.
The screen default is the Status and sub menu: Overview.
Prior to going forward, you need to know what the television standard your
facility is using. n our test setup Wave Central our test standard is HD/SD :
1080i 59.94.
1080i 59.94. 1080i 59.94.
1080i 59.94. The test transmitter source is using this line standard and is
operating on pre-set 14 which is 5880 MHz. The transmitter is transmitting
at 10 mW on 5880 MHz, 8 MHz bandwidth, 16QAM constellation, 1/8 guard
interval, ½ FEC (Forward Error Correction) and bit rate of 11.06 Mbps.
Block Down Converters are connected to F inputs 1 and 6.

Select the nput tab on the display shown the status of the Demod 1,
Transmitter with services, AS status and Genlock.
Connecting the enlock source
The Genlock source MUST be the same standard used within your facility
and that of the RF cameras etc. Connect the Genlock source to the
standard as used in your facility to the Genlock input (75 Ohm) on the
receiver.
HD/SD 1, HDM 1, CVBS (NTSC) and the BDC to F inputs 1 and 6 should be
connected at this time. We also check and verify each analog outputs;
Audio 1 through 4 are functional. Your system will most likely be using
embedded audio.

The Genlock menu indicates that the input Genlock signal has been
detected (1080i 59.94) and supported. Since the receiver (D331 main
board) has one Decoder 1 displays Using.
Adjusting enlock
Wave Central uses a Leader Multi Monitor LV5570. The reference (Genlock)
is the same signal feeding the Genlock input to the receiver. The HD/SD 1
output, in our case feeds input B of the LV5570 and the monitor is set to
external.
