'''[[How do I make a "Serial Rescue" of the device if it turns unreachable?]]'''
== Applications ==
First of all you have to do this not by web browser but using a serial crossover cable.  
Barix products can be used in a vast variety of applications and markets. Below links bring you to pages which describe applications, which products to use etc
Download the corresponding firmware package of the device from Barix' website as usual. Once the firmware is downloaded and unzipped, you will find the file called "_readme1st.txt". Please follow the instructions contained there.
* [[Automation Applications]] - this includes data conversion, collection, remote managment and monitoring (non-audio) applications
* [[Broadcast Applications]] - Applications in the Broadcast Industry such as STL, internet radio, monitoring
* [[In-Store Music Applications]] - Applications for distribution of live music or "download and playback" on schedule.
* [[General Audio Distribution Applications]] - distribution of audio channels in hotels, over the internet, homes, amusement parks etc.
* [[Business Music]] - distribution of audio channels and/or music in hotels, bars, retail, etc. over the internet
* [[Security Applications]] - Use of the Barix products in security survailance and evacuation applications
* [[Alarm Applications]] - Use of the Barix products in emergency alerting applications
* [[SIP Applications]] - Use of the Barix products with SIP protocol for SIP speaker, intercom, phone applications
* [[Crestron Integration]] - integrating audio over IP with Crestron touchpanels
* [[IP based Intercom technology]] - a general description and Intercom Applications
* [[Institutional Applications]] - applications for institutionals, like campus, churches or hospitals, ...
* [[Rebroadcasting Application]] - what does it do ?
* [[Messaging / Music on Hold Application from MOH Technology]]
* [[Scheduling of Audio or commands]]


'''[[What if the device is still unreachable after a serial rescue?]]'''
== Hardware Topics ==
You can still use the "ARP" method to address the device, but for that you need a LOCAL connection.
* [[Software/Hardware compatibility matrix]]
After doing factory defaults, you can ALWAYS use the ARP method or serial method to set up an ip address to the unit and enter the configuration and re-enable it.
* [[USB device compatibility list]]
To use the arp-command to set an IP address to the Exstreamer manually, please do the following:
* [[USB and IPAM layout rules]]
- connect power, loudspeaker and the cable to the device
* [[Microphones]]
- open a cmd console at your PC, using Windows do the following: "Start Button" --> "Execute" --> "cmd"
* [[Exstreamer P5 and Infrared]]
- type in "arp -s <ip address> <MAC address> (e.g. arp -s 192.168.0.201 00-08-e1-00-6c-e7)
* '''[[ESD protection enhancement how-to]]'''
- type in "telnet <ip address> 1 (e.g. telnet 192.168.0.201 1)
A connection will be initialised. After a short period (app. 2 seconds) you'll get an error message, that´s ok !!
Now the device has learned the ip address and you should be able to configure the device through your browser.
