GlobalTuners:Receiver setup

First, the operator installs the software on the server computer:

1. Has the receiver been installed before?
   • Yes: continue to the next step
   • No: Follow the Share your receiver steps at http://www.globaltuners.com/receiver/share.php
2. Windows or Linux?
   • Windows: download and run http://www.globaltuners.com/download/uradioserver/installer/phase1.exe
   • Linux: follow the steps in http://www.globaltuners.com/download/uradioserver/linux_howto.php

Now, an administrator got some work to do:

1. Go to the GlobalTuners website and find the receiver
2. Is it's status Online, Starting or Error?
   • Yes: okay.
   • No: see GlobalTuners:Receiver troubleshooting
3. Use the Upgrade link to load the required drivers
4. Open the Configuration page and adjust the Receiver and Soundcard configuration
   • You will usually need to know the serial port number, baud rate and sometimes CI-V address (the last two are often configurable on the receiver)
   • Note that the CI-V Address on GlobalTuners is in decimal form, while Icom specifies the address in hexadecimal form. Use the windows calculator to convert.
5. Click the Save button
6. Open the Status page and click Restart server
7. Wait 10 seconds
8. Does it work?
   • Yes: good, click the Activate receiver link to make it public and to make the operator officially a 'Site operstor'
   • No: see GlobalTuners:Receiver troubleshooting
