Installation
To set a static IP address on the 782-LT, use the IR
remote control (model 710-IR) to show the on-screen
setup menus. Press the menu (or home) button to show
the Media list and then use the arrow up cursor key
to show the setup menus. Navigate to the Advanced/
Configuration-Configure Network-IP address setting
menus to set the IP address details. Ensure that all
static IP address details (netmask, gateway etc.), are in
accordance with the settings provided by the network
system administrator.
7. Once the 782-LT is connected on the network, its
advanced configuration options may be setup using a
networked computer running a standard web-browser.
In the web browser (Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox,
Safari) enter the IP address of the 782-LT into the
navigation address bar. The browser will then show the
configuration web pages from the 782-LT unit, starting
with the specification page. The main configuration web
pages can be accessed by clicking on the menu link on
the left hand side of the screen. Context sensitive help
is shown on the right hand side in case further help is
required with setup.
It is recommended that the following (minimum)
settings are configured at time of installation:
a) Unit name (in Operating Mode menu) – This should
reflect the physical location of the unit, preferably in line
with a system wide naming convention. This name of
the unit will be shown in the Media Manager software.
b) Date/Time – For most accurate timekeeping,
configure the unit to use a corporate or internet NTP
time server (a commonly used internet time server is
pool.ntp.org). If this is not available, set the date and
time manually. The date/time will be retained and
updated throughout a power outage of up to 3 days.
8. The media accessible on the display is controlled from
the Media Manager software. When the Media Manager
server software is installed and running, it should
automatically detect a new 782-LT unit and create a new
‘icon’ for it. Media can then be assigned to the 782-LT
by ‘dragging and dropping’ live streams, stored files etc.
onto the 782-LT icon. The 782-LT will then be instructed
to download or access the specified media and start
showing it on the display as requested by the user.
If the 782-LT is not automatically recognised by the
Media manager software, then:
a) Use a browser to go onto the 782’s web page menus
and enter <MM server IP address>/MediaManagerUp-
dates/config (without < or >) into the Config File Location
field and click on Apply. Creating this direct connection
to the Media Manager server should cause the 782’s
icon to be created. The network connectivity from the
782-LT to the Media Manager server can be checked
by checking the ‘Check update locations’ tick box and
pressing the apply button.
b) In Media Manager, manually create a 782-LT icon, by
right-clicking on the workspace and selecting the Create/
Endpoint/782-LT option. This allows the IP address of
the 782-LT to be manually specified, so Media Manager
can then try and connect directly to the 782-SL unit.
It is essential for the 782-LT to be able to communicate
with a Media Manager server to be able to initially
configure or then change the user selectable media.
