If the IP port number is changed ports 42001 and 1300 should not be used as these ports
are already used by EHX. The Eclipse HX system administrator should check with the
network administrator or IT to obtain a port number to use.

IP address assignment

Manually enter the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway for the LMC-64 card.

IP address

Static IP address of the LMC-64 card, assigned by IT or the Network Administrator. This is
used by Production Maestro clients to communicate with the LMC-64 card.

Important

It is important to ensure that the LMC-64 card IP address does not clash with any other IP
address on the network (another device is using the same IP address). If there is an IP
address clash the Production Maestro clients may lose audio meter data. If the LMC-64
card IP address clashes it may also cause the LMC-64 card to crash.

Subnet mask

Subnet mask used by the LMC-64 card to define the address range the card can access.
Typically this is assigned by IT or the Network Administrator. The default is 255.255.0.0.

Default gateway

The address of the gateway (router) to be used to communicate with Production Maestro
clients over a wider IP network. This address is optional but if used must fall within the
address range defined by the subnet mask.

External IP address

If the matrix is operating behind a firewall then port address forwarding can be used to
expose a LAN-connected device to the outside world. Typically this is assigned by IT or
the Network Administrator.

This IP address must be used by external Production Maestro clients to communicate with
the LMC-64 card. This address must be a unique address on the internet. It is not affected
by the subnet mask.

External IP address IP port

IP port used when communicating directly with the LMC-64 card using the External IP
address. The default port number is 6001 and this should not be changed unless the
default port number on all external devices is also changed to the new port number.

Configuring the E-MADI64 card

The E-MADI64 is a MADI (Multichannel Audio Digital Interface) card, providing up to 64
duplex channels of AES3 digital audio over a coaxial cable or fiber pair between
compatible devices.

Adding an e-MADI64 CARD (automatic discovery)

The E-MADI64 card is automatically discovered when:

• The Discover Hardware option is selected, after the Matrix is placed on the

System Layout from the discovery pane.
