Installation Audio Connector The AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD provides analog audio output of two-channel audio, using the included 3-pin captive-screw terminal block. 1. Use wire strippers to remove a portion of the cable jacket. 2. Remove at least 3/16” (5 mm) from the insulation of each wire. 3. Insert the wires into the correct terminal on the included Phoenix block, as shown below. 4. Tighten the screws to secure the wires. Do not use high-torque devices as this may damage the screws and/or connector block.
Installation Connection Instructions 1. Connect a UHD/HD source to each of the HDMI IN ports on the AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD. 2. Connect an HDMI cable from each HDMI OUT port on the AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD to a display or other sink device. HDMI OUT ports support multichannel audio. NOTE: The AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD is a High Dynamic Range (HDR) product. For best performance, use premium HDMI cables that are HDR-certified. 3.
Installation IP Configuration The AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD is shipped with DHCP enabled. Once connected to a network, the DHCP server (if available), will automatically assign an IP address to the unit. Use an IP scanner, along with the MAC address on the bottom of the unit, to identify both the unit and its IP address on the network. If the AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD is unable to detect a DHCP server within 15 seconds, then the unit will be placed in Auto IP mode and will be assigned an IP address within the range 169.254.
The Web GUI • Setting DHCP mode 1. Connect to the AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD using RS-232 or Telnet. 2. At the command line, execute the IPDHCP command using the on argument, as shown. All characters are case-sensitive. IPDHCP on Once DHCP is enabled, the unit will be assigned an IP address by the DHCP server (if present). Setting the IP Address using the Web GUI The System page (page 21), in the web GUI, can be used to set the AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD to either DHCP or static IP mode.
The Web GUI Introduction to the Web GUI The AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD includes a built-in web GUI. Atlona recommends that the web GUI be used to set up the AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD, as it provides intuitive management of all features. The AT-HDR-M2C-QUAD is shipped with DHCP enabled. Once connected to a network, the DHCP server will automatically assign an IP address to the unit. Use an IP scanner to determine the IP address of the AT-HDR-M2CQUAD.
The Web GUI 7. The Info page will be displayed. Menu Bar The dark-colored bar, near the top of the screen, is the menu bar. When the mouse is moved over each menu element, it will be highlighted in light orange.
