Software Installation
Turn the server on and login using:
Username: liveu
Password: 123123
By launching the “liveu-config” you will be brought to the LiveU Server Setup Utility. Press “Enter” to continue with the
setup.
You are given the option for a Wizard setup or a Manual Setup. For the initial setup we recommend doing the “Wizard
Flow” option. All the steps on pages 15-22 of the document follow the “Wizard Flow” option
The next screen will let you know what the Wizard Setup will go through. The steps are very, very similar to the current
MMH Configuration. Press “Enter” to proceed.

First you will be asked to configure the network of the server. Hover over “Yes” and Press “Enter” to proceed.
Select the ethernet port that you will want to setup. The wizard install will let you know what ethernet port you are
currently connected too. Select the one you want to configure and press “Enter”
You will then be asked if you want to setup the connection for DHCP or Manual. We always recommend setting up a
static connection. The steps below will show you setting up a static IP.
Please fill in the network information and hit “Enter” to continue.

If done successfully you should get the following message
If you would also like to configure the other ethernet port you will select “Yes” on this screen. If you do not need to
setup the other ethernet port select “No” and press “Enter” to continue.
Since you are connecting to the default LiveU-Central and HUB you will want to select “Yes”
This information is filled in for default. You can just hit “Enter”
With 7.0 each server will have its own unique license. The server you configure should already have a license by default.
Press “Enter” to proceed. IF IT ASKS FOR A LICENSE SELECT MANUAL AND THEN ENTER THE SERIAL NUMBER OF THE
SERVER. IT IS LOCATED ON THE SERVER ITSELF.

This is the message you should be receiving as our servers are already registered.
The next step is configuring the channels. This step is similar to “Step 3 MMH Configuration” that we currently use on
servers running 6.5.0 and below. You can select “Yes” and hit “Enter”
Select the number of channels that you want to configure. If it’s a single server you can type 1 or more depending on
how many preview channels you want. If it is a duo server select at least 2. If it is a quad select at least 4. In my image
example I have a single server, but I want 1 preview channel so I wrote “2”.
Here is the chart that you will want to configure the ports that the server will use to receive video. By default our
network requirements document recommends 8601-8608 for the first column. The second column we recommend
8609-8612. The last column we recommend 8620-8648. IF YOU ARE SETTING UP A SECOND LIVEU SERVER PLEASE USE
A DIFFERENT RANGE OF PORTS LIKE 8701-8750

The next ports you are configuring are our Preview and Store and Forward Ports. By Default our network requirement
recommends Preview port be 1935 and the File Server port is 18255.
You are now going to configure the SDI outputs. Select “Yes” and press “Enter”
Below is an example of configuring a server with 1 output channel and 1 preview channel. Select Channel 1 and hit
“Enter” to configure.
Since this server only has 1 Blackmagic output you will only see Card 0. Select Card 0 for instance 1 and hit “Enter”.
This will take you back to the screen you saw earlier. Channel 1 is now set to card 0. Channel 2 will be disabled as it is
my preview channel. Move over to “OK” with the arrow keys on the keyboard and hit “Enter”.

The last step is to perform the verification setup. This is “Step 5 Verify Setup” in our configuration folder on servers
running software 6.5.0 or below. Press “Enter” while hovering over “Yes”
This will check if the server can reach google, our hubs, LUC, check the S&F port, Preview Port, Medic, and lastly the UDP
ports for each instance setup in the chart earlier. You should see a “SUCCESS” at the bottom and get an “All tests
passed” message.
You will then receive a wizard complete message. To finish the installation press “Enter” on your keyboard.
The basic configuration for the server is complete. If you made a mistake or want to configure a few additional settings
please see the next page for the “Advanced Configuration” Setup.

Advanced Configuration
By launching the “liveu-config” again you will be brought to the LiveU Server Setup Utility. Press “Enter” to continue
with the setup.
You are given the option for a Wizard setup or a Manual Setup. For the Advanced setup you will want to select Manual
Flow. Hover over “Manual Flow” and press “Enter” on your keyboard to proceed.
You will now see the select menu. To select what you want to configure hover over the option you want and press
the spacebar. This will put an * in the [ ]. This confirms what you have selected. Once you have everything checked
that you want to configure press “Enter”.

Encryption
If you would like to setup an encryption password enter the password in the given field. Note if you accidently selected
this option or you would like to disable the feature leave the box blank and hit “Enter” on your keyboard.
Once you enter your encryption password you will get a message stating that “Encryption password set successfully”
IFB Configuration
To setup IFB you will need the device plugged in beforehand. These are the devices that we support on 7.0
Komplete Audio 6 – 4 ports audio device (not recommended for new deployments)
Presonus AudioBox 22VSL - 2 port XLR audio interface
Presonus AudioBox 1818VSL – 8 port XLR audio interface
The first thing you will be asked is if you would like to configure the IFB Volume. Select “Yes” and press “Enter”.
You will then be asked to configure the volume for each channel. You can go as low as 0 and as high as 127. Use your
keyboard to enter the figure for each channel. Use the tab key to filter through Channels, OK, Reset, and Back. Once
your values are correct press “Enter” to proceed.
