Starting Up Turbine Station

The Turbine Station features an embedded web interface, which allows users to log in via a standard web browser.

To start up the station, your PC and the IP station have to be connected together via a PoE switch using network cables:

1. Connect the PC to a port on the network switch
2. Connect the IP station to a PoE port on the network switch

When the Turbine Station is connected to the network, the IP address of the station is automatically obtained in one of two ways:

1. An IP address is obtained from a DHCP server if there is one.
2. If there is no DHCP server, a random IP address in the range 169.254.x.x will be assigned.

To make the station speak its IP address:

• Press the call button on the station

Note: Speaking IP address is only available when the station is not yet registered

At commissioning, the IP station needs to be configured to enable it to be used as:

• Station subscribed to an AlphaCom server
• SIP station
• Pulse station
