INTRODUCTION TO YOUR AT&T REMOTE MONITOR STARTER KIT /// FIRST TIME SETUP /// Thank you for your purchase of the AT&T Remote Monitor Starter Kit. The XG1000 Controller (the terms “Controller” and “Gateway” should be viewed as synonomous), a small dedicated computer, allows you to access and control cameras and other devices in your home, and make this information available to you wherever you are.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION: FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW SET UP YOUR AT&T REMOTE MONITOR STARTER KIT: 1. Take the XG1000 Controller AC Power Supply [A1] from your controller box. Plug the small end into the port marked Power on your XG1000 Controller [X1] and plug the other end into an AC electrical outlet. 4. Bring your IP Camera [C1], AC Power Supply [A2], HomePlug Turbo PLC Ethernet Adapter [H2], and Ethernet Cable [E3] to the location in your home that you wish to install your IP Camera [C1].
CONTROLLER REGISTRATION: 1. When you purchased your AT&T Remote Monitor system, you created a remote account with a UserID and Password. Using a web browser on a PC connected to the same local network as your XG1000 Controller, go to site http://www.attrm.com and log in using this ID and password. 2. After successfully logging in, select the Account Settings tab and then select Discovery. 4. When the controller registration has completed, you will see a confirmation message as in the following picture.
USING THE SYSTEM WITH A CORPORATE FIREWALL /// LIVE VIDEO /// If you are using the AT&T Remote Monitor system in an environment that is protected by a corporate firewall, you may need to make some settings that will allow you to get the best performance out of your system. The great majority of users will not need to use these settings. For each discovered camera you will see a Snapshot of the view associated with the camera when you click on the ‘LIVE VIDEO’ tab.
OPTIMIZING YOUR VIDEO PERFORMANCE: To ensure that your video performance is optimized you can port forward your router. To do so, please repeat the controller registration process (refer to the instructions, steps 1-4, found on pages 5 and 6 of this manual) where you will be prompted with instructions on port forwarding. XG1000 CONTROLLER /// INDICATORS: There are ten indicators on the front of the controller.
BOOT SEQUENCE When the controller is first powered up, the bottom five LED’s on the front panel go through a boot-up sequence. The lights start out as Red, go to Amber and then Green. The process takes about three minutes. REAR PANEL: The rear panel of the controller contains the ports for cable connections. The bottom round port is for the power. The AC adapter is plugged into this port. The other port is for the network cable. A standard Ethernet cable is connected between this port and your router.
