Linking
What is a Link-Group?
A Link-Group is a set of LQ devices connected over IP so they share audio and data between them.
With LQ 4.0 and above a HelixNet Main Station can also be included in a Link-Group. This increases the available ports and the range of a HelixNet system. With LQ 5.0 and above, Gen-IC Virtual Intercom can be included in the Link-Group.
The Core Configuration Manager (CCM) for any LQ host can be accessed by entering the IP address as displayed on the front panel display of the LQ host into a web browser's address field. All devices in the Link-Group can be viewed and configured through any single host in the Link-Group.
| Note: | A HelixNet Main Station can also be linked in a Link-Group formation. The basic principles are the same for a HelixNet/LQ Link-Group, though there are a few differences in operation. The HelixNet must be Link-Master. |
| Note: | Gen-IC Virtual Intercom can also be linked in a Link-Group formation. Gen-IC must be Link-Master. |
| Note: | A HelixNet Main Station cannot be included in a Link-Group with Gen-IC. |
| Note: | From LQ 5.1, the Link-Master is locked by default, in order to prevent unauthorized linking. The Link-Master must be unlocked before linking. |
