Conﬁ guring Cellular Communications

When conﬁ guring Cellular Presets, you must type an IP Address to designate the

destination for the cellular video stream. The LiveGear Receiver’s [LGR] IP address

is the destination to communicate with the NewStream IDU. You must also designate

the LGR Port and Channel numbers for the cellular video stream. Use the LGR Port

and Channel numbers assigned for communication with NewStream. This information

can be added to the CNG Presets that you conﬁ gure with the Web interface in

Remote mode. Refer below to the following Initial Setup section to assist your Cellular

conﬁ guration endeavors.

As mentioned for Microwave control, set the IDU to Remote Mode and go to the

Modify Presets Web interface to make unique copies of the CNG Presets in order to

create customized presets that your operators will use during broadcast. For more

information refer to the

Modify Presets section. For Remote Control operation see

the sections below: Conﬁ guration Mode touchscreen and Remote Operation Using the

Web Interface

Initial CNG Setup
