6 Commissioning the S ystem
After physically installing all of the headend and remote-end elements, the initial setup procedure can be performed and the
system can be commissioned either via a local or remote connection.
NOTE: When unconfigured elements are detected the following message appears in the Config window of the Web Management
GUI: "New uncommissioned units found, please run setup".
The initial setup procedure consists of the following steps:
• Opening a local Web Management session (on page 55) using the default IP address assigned to the HEU
• Configuring the LAN and LOCAL Port Network Settings (on page 56) for remote or local management
• Performing required pre-setup procedures
• Running the Setup procedure (on page 62)
• Performing the System Adjustment Procedure (on page 73)
6.1 Opening a Local Session
To open a local Web Management session
1. Verify that your computer Local Area Connection (Properties / TCP/IP / Properties) is set to obtain the "DNS Server Address
Automatically".
2. Connect a computer (i.e. laptop) directly to the HEU HCM LOCAL port via the supplied RJ-45 Ethernet cable (P/N
705900003) as shown in the following figure.
WARNING! DO NOT connect the HCM LOCAL port to a network as its DHCP server can disrupt LAN IP addressing.
