Wiring AC Power and Ground to the unit
This is a Class I product. Each AC power cord MUST have an Earth connection. The unit is
grounded through the AC power cable and, therefore, relies upon proper grounding of the
circuit providing AC power.
In the case of Dual PSU models, we suggest connecting them to different power sources for
redundancy, and we highly recommend the use of a UPS (uninterruptable power supply) for
each source. Alternatively, one of the PSU inlets can be connected to standard Mains, and the
other PSU can be connected to uninterrupted (UPS) mains.
Always make sure that both circuits are referenced to and share the same ground.  
The Axia StudioEdge and StudioCore do not require a separate chassis ground to operate.
However, for those users who wish to have a separate ground/earth connection using a
dedicated earth cable (at least 6mm²  or 10 AWG cross section), this could be connected to
the rear CHASSIS GROUND terminal using an M3 screw with an integrated lock washer.
Note – The maximum length for passive USB2.0 cables is 5mt (15ft). If a greater
distance exists between the unit and the control device, we recommend using an active
USB cable with PSU (not bus-powered).

Such a cable is not included in the unit, as this connection is optional and is NOT a
requirement to comply with safety standards.
Cycling AC Power to the unit (Cold Reboot)
In case a cold reboot is required, and AC Power needs to be cycled:
1. Remove the AC Power (from both PSUs)
2. Wait for at least 10 seconds, then reconnect AC Power.
External Network Switch Configuration
A 5-port Gigabit switch is included with every StudioEdge and StudioCore. You don t need an
External network switch unless you are connecting this unit to a larger AoIP network.
Audio over IP requires the use of an approved and properly configured switch. Not all
switches are capable of handling the traffic generated by AoIP, and an improper configuration
can lead to a flood of traffic on the network. Details of switch configuration are beyond the
scope of this Quick Start Guide, and it is assumed the person responsible for installation has
the necessary configuration skills or the resources of an IT engineer.
A list of Telos Alliance-approved Ethernet switches is available on our website, at the
following link: Approved Ethernet Switches or you may submit an online support request at
the following url: https://www. telosalliance.com/support-request.
StudioEdge Initial Set-Up
The default IP Address for the StudioEdge I/O component is 192.168.2.20/24.  You can edit
this address either from the touchscreen or from the web UI, so as to match your network
configuration.
Setting the IP Address from the Front Panel
Note The IP address in the front panel belongs to the Edge I/O only. In case of a
StudioCore unit, changing the Edge IP from the front panel will not automatically
change the Core DSP Engine IP. Please check the next chapter for instructions on how
to change the Core IP address.

1. Connect the unit to AC Mains and wait for the unit to complete the boot process. The
front panel touchscreen display will show a splash screen identifying the unit base
model (StudioEdge or StudioCore).
2. Press the top button on the Front Panel  (above the encoder) : a dynamic menu will
appear, sliding in from the left.
3. Press the top button on the Front Panel  (above the encoder) : a dynamic menu will
appear, sliding in from the left.
4. Rotate the encoder and scroll the menu up until you can select Network Setup . Push
the encoder to enter the Network Setup menu.
5.  Press the SET IP button on the screen, enter the desired IP address using the keypad,
and push Enter. Follow the same steps to set the Subnet (A Gateway is not required).
6. Push SAVE & Reboot to apply the new IP and reboot the unit. You can exit at any time by
pushing the Cancel button.
Setting the StudioEdge IP Address from the Web UI

1. Connect an Ethernet cable to one of the Ethernet ports on the rear panel of the
StudioEdge (see Connections: 16 or 17),  connect  the other end to either a configured
AoIP Network switch or directly to a PC
2.  Launch a web browser and enter the default IP address: 192.168.2.20, then click on the
Network Setup menu. When prompted for authentication, enter user in the Username
field and leave the Password field blank.
3.  In the Network Setup screen, type the new IP in the IP Address field and select the
desired Subnet from the drop-down. You do not need to enter a Gateway.

4. Click on Save & Restart to apply the new IP and reboot the unit.
Configuring the StudioEdge Sources and Destinations
Open up a browser and navigate to the StudioEdge IP Address. In the I/O Manager section,
click on the Sources configuration menu. The following page will appear:

In the Name fields, enter useful labeling to describe the devices connected to the xNode.
Click the Apply button.
In each of the Channel / IP fields, assign a unique Livewire channel number (or multicast IP
address in the case of AES67) to each source you wish to enable.
You can press the arrow button next to the Channel field to automatically generate all the
following numbers/addresses.
In the Mode fields, set the desired AoIP operation mode (packet time).
Click the Apply button.
In the I/O Manager section, click on the Destinations configuration menu.
The following page will appear:

In the Name fields, enter useful labeling to describe what is
connected to the xNode outputs.
In the Input Signal fields, you can choose to route one of the
local input signals (from the StudioEdge rear panel) to the
selected output, or you can select Audio Over IP and enter the
network Stream Type and Channel number (or AES67 multicast
IP).
Only the relevant fields will be displayed and available for
configuration after the Input Signal is selected.                  
If Audio Over IP is selected for one of the Destinations, clicking
on the
button will allow you to select a Livewire or an AES67 stream from the Network.
A list of network streams will be displayed for selection.

StudioCore Initial Set-Up
The StudioCore adds a DSP Mixing Engine to the StudioEdge: the network settings for these
two entities are completely independent from each other, therefore you must setup both the
Edge IP address, (as described in the previous chapter) and the Core DSP Engine IP address.
The default IP Address for the StudioCore DSP component is 192.168.2.21/24.  You can edit
this address either from a CAN-connected console, or from the web UI, so as to match your
network configuration.
Setting the StudioCore IP Address from the Web UI
1.  Launch a web browser and enter the default IP address: 192.168.2.21, then click on the
Network Setup menu. When prompted for authentication, enter user in the Username

field and leave the Password field blank.
2.  In the Network Setup screen, type the new IP in the IP Address field and select the
desired Subnet from the drop-down. You do not need to enter a Gateway.
3. Leave the WAN IP Address set to 0.0.0.0.
4. Push Save & Restart to apply the new IP and reboot the unit.
Configuring the StudioCore + CAN models
StudioCore + CAN models are designed to connect to a legacy Axia iQ-family console.
Select Console Config in the Configuration section of the left column menu. The StudioCore
Control Center will display the Console Configuration page:

In the Configuration drop-down menu, choose your application type:
Single Studio will create one logical console and connect it to the Mix Engine
Twin Studios will create two logical consoles sharing a single Mix Engine,
each with its own monitor section.
Only DESQ and RAQ surfaces are supported in this mode.
In the Function drop-down menu, select the type of surface module connected to each CAN
port.
In the Status section, check that the modules you have selected are listed as Connected to
the appropriate port.
Setting the StudioCore IP Address from an iQ, Radius, Desk, or RAQ
To enter the Engine IP address from the console, you must access System Settings:
Press and hold the Meter key for three seconds:
The Studio display now shows the options, and the Studio
Monitor control is used to navigate, select options, and change
parameter values.
The options available are:
IP Address

Preparation for the update
An Axia QOR Engine has two internal memory banks. Each bank contains room for a
complete version of operating software. This approach allows a software update to be
completed and checked without danger of making the unit inoperable if the download were
to be incomplete or corrupted. It also provides an easy way to try a new software version and
still return to the old version.
You can see the software version in each bank from the Setup web page. The lower half of
this screen, pictured below, shows the software versions present and allows you to select the
bank used at startup. To change banks, click the radio button for the desired bank and then
click on Change active bank.
Note that while some consoles look similar, this does not apply to the Axia iQx
Console.

Upload new software
1. Click here to download the 2.4.0.3 update and save it to a location on your computer.
2. Using a Web browser, connect to the QOR to be updated.
3. Click on the Setup link under System on the left-side menu.
IMPORTANT! The QOR will reboot after you click Change active bank . Rebooting
results in loss of audio locally, and at any unit using the local sources.
This file must be uploaded to your QOR precisely as is. You can change the name
of the file when you save it, however, do not attempt to unpack the archive.

4. Under the Software update heading, click on the "Choose File" button, browse for, and
select the update file you downloaded in the first step.
Once updated, the name of the file you have uploaded will be displayed to the right of
the Choose File button, as shown.

hold soft-key for 3 seconds. Then release and push again within 5 seconds to
confirm.
PHONE bus is now an available external output
Auto-Rec backfeed mode.
A new "Feed to Source" mode is added in the Source profiles called, Auto-Rec
(Program 1/Phone), which controls what the caller hears based on the state of the
Record Mode rather than the console on/off state.
Record Insert mode switch (pre/post fader).
Added option to set the channel insert to the P4-Record as PreFader. In the Source
profile, set the Record insert option as pre or post-fader. (Post Fader is the default)
Show Source name when a fixed phone line is used.
The behavior of Fixed Phone sources is changed so that the Source Name is always
displayed. The Line status is shown on the second line in smaller text.
Fixes
Fader start workflow is not compatible with P4-Record which is OFF but Post-
Fader. In Fader start, moving the fader changes state to ON.

Fixed issue where entering an invalid IP-Address could make the unit inaccessible.
Fixed issue where some LWCP messages may get delayed.
Fixed wrong response to LWRP "MTR OCH" command.
Fixed Daylight Saving Time Auto Adjust in cases where NTP is not used.
Fixed rare case where NTP status is not updated correctly.
Fixed some small memory leaks in LWCP processing (profile lists and invalid messages).
Fixed dynamic meters in cases where source audio signal is not on the left channel.
Compatibility Improvements

with 2 mics, one on Left,`one on Right. This allows mic source in QOR to be either left or
right and to put both mics on the mix from single stream.
multicast GPIO commands are sent in a single message if possible.
Fixes
Fixed a rare case where QOR might wrongly become Livewire master even if there are
other Livewire devices with higher clock master priority.
Brightness is not applied after configuration restore.
Fix CR Monitor GPIO 4th pin state after show load.
General HTML fixes.
