ACM500 QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

Introduction Our UHD SDVoE Multicast distribution platform allows distribution of the highest quality, uncompromised 4K with zero latency Audio/Video over copper or optical fibre 10GbE networks. The ACM500 Control Module features advanced third party control of the SDVoE 10GbE Multicast system using TCP/IP, RS-232 and IR. The ACM500 includes a web interface module for control and configuration of the Multicast system and features `drag and drop' source selection with video preview and independent routing of IR, RS-232, USB / KVM, Audio and Video. Pre-built Blustream product drivers simplify Multicast product installation and negate the need for an understanding of complex network infrastructures.
FEATURES:
· Web interface module for configuration and control of the Blustream SDVoE 10GbE Multicast system · Intuitive `drag & drop' source selection with video preview feature for active monitoring of system status · Advanced signal management for independent routing of IR, RS-232, CEC, USB/KVM, audio and video · Auto system configuration · 2 x RJ45 LAN connections to bridge existing network to Multicast video distribution network, resulting in:
- Better system performance as network traffic is separated - No advanced network setup required - Independent IP address per LAN connection - Allows simplified TCP / IP control of Multicast system · Dual RS-232 ports for control of the Multicast system or pass-through of control to remote third party devices · 5V / 12V IR integration for control of Multicast system · PoE (Power over Ethernet) to power Blustream product from PoE switch · Local 12V power supply (optional) should Ethernet switch not support PoE · Support for IOS and Android App control · 3rd party drivers available for all major control brands

1 Power Connection (optional) - use 12V 1A DC power supply where PoE switch does not provide power from Video LAN switch
2 Video LAN (PoE) - connect to the network switch that the Blustream Multicast components are connected to 3 Control LAN Port - connect to existing network that a third party control system resides on. The Control LAN port is
used for Telnet/IP control of the Multicast system. Not PoE. 4 RS-232 1 Control Port ­ connect to a third party control device for control of the Multicast system using RS-232. 5 RS-232 2 Control Port ­ connect to a third party control device for control of the Multicast system using RS-232. 6 GPIO Connections - 6-pin Phoenix connect for input / output triggers (reserved for future use) 7 GPIO Voltage Level Switch (reserved for future use) 8 IR Ctrl (IR Input) ­ 3.5mm stereo jack. Connect to third party control system if using IR as the chosen method of
controlling the Multicast system. When using the included 3.5mm stereo to mono cable, ensure the cable direction is correct. 9 IR Voltage Selection - adjust IR voltage level between 5V or 12V input for IR CTRL connection.

Sign In

Before logging in to the ACM500, ensure that the control device (i.e. laptop / tablet) is connected to the same network as the ACM500's Control port. To log in, open a web browser (i.e. Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari etc.) and navigate to the default (static) IP address of the ACM500 which is:
192.168.0.225

The ACM500 can also be found at the beacon address at:
http://acm500.local

The IP address and/or beacon address can be amended from the web-GUI of the ACM500. Please refer to the full instruction manual which can be downloaded from the Blustream website.

The Sign In page is presented on connection to the ACM500. The default admin credentials are as follows:

Username: blustream

Password: 1 2 3 4

The first time the ACM500 is signed into, you will be prompted to set a new Admin password. Please insert a new password, confirm your new password, and ensure this is kept safe. The ACM500 will require the unit to be signed into again using the new Admin password.

Impotant Note: The Blustream IP500UHD Multicast system distributes HDMI video over 10GbE Managed network hardware. It is advised that Blustream Multicast products are connected on an independent network switch to prevent unnecessary interference, or reduction in signal performance due to other network products bandwidth requirements. Please read and understand the instructions in this and the manual available online, and ensure that the network switch is configured correctly prior to connecting any Blustream Multicast products. Failure to do so will result in problems with configuration of the system, and video performance.
