Importer Plus audio” on page 2-2.
2. Select a location for the Importer Plus in the studio or the transmitter site. For detailed
information, see “Selecting a location for the Importer Plus” on page 2-2.
3. Prepare the network (LAN) connection between the Importer Plus and the NE IBOC,
Exporter or Exporter Plus. Consider the Importer Plus's location and the amount of other
networked equipment at the transmitter site. For detailed information, see “Planning the
LAN connection” on page 2-3.
4. Consult your network manager to obtain IP address information for the Importer Plus, NE
IBOC, Exporter or Exporter Plus, and gateway. For detailed information, see “IP address
