3.0 Power Test
3.1. Plug the ethernet cable into the RJ45 port on the back of the speaker
enclosure. Monitor the switch port (and PoE injector, if applicable) LED
activity for power and network link status. See the following figure:
3.2. The IP addressing mode is set to DHCP on default. If there is no DHCP
server available on the network, it will try 12 times with a three second delay
between tries and eventually fall back to the programmed static IP address
(by default 10.10.10.10). This process will take approximately 80 seconds.
This concludes the power test. Go to Section 4.0, "InformaCast
Configuration File Retrieval".

4.0 InformaCast Configuration File Retrieval
4.1. DHCP should be enabled. After the speaker initializes, it will send a
broadcast to the DHCP server to ask for the location of its
InformaCastSpeaker.cfg configuration file.
4.2. SLP or TFTP?
•SLP should be enabled on InformaCast version 5.0.4 or higher. SLP is an
InformaCast protocol introduced in InformaCast version 5.0.4. The
speaker will retrieve its configuration file from an InformaCast server
folder specified by SLP. SLP method is preferred.
•TFTP servers may be used instead of SLP. In this alternate scenario,
DHCP option 150 is required to provide the speaker with the address of
the TFTP server. Otherwise, the speaker will be unable to retrieve its
configuration file.
Note The InformaCast Enabled 2 x 2 Ceiling Tile Drop-In Speaker and
InformaCast server should be on the same subnet during the
speaker's initial configuration if it cannot access the VLANs upon
which the InformaCast Server and DHCP servers are located.
5.0 Identification and Testing
5.1. Ensure the InformaCast Server has detected a new speaker.
5.2. Test the newly detected speaker.
5.3. Add the newly detected speaker to the InformaCast Server.
