Conguring the Unit

The unit can be congured either on the local monitor or over the network using a PC with

Internet Explorer or similar browser. Both have near identical menu interfaces.

Accessing the menus on a local monitor

The Conguration pages are displayed on a local monitor.

To access the Menu screen on a local monitor, single press the ‘Next’ (purple) button on the

front of the unit or on the screen until the ‘Menu’ (Blue) button is displayed. Select the ‘Menu’

(Blue) button to open the Conguration option or use the mouse to click on the ‘Conguration’

button on the monitor screen to open the conguration options.

Locating the Unit IP address

The IP address of the unit is required to access the webpages. It can be identied from the

conguration menu pages using the local monitor, press the MENU button on the IR Remote

Control and navigate to the System Settings->System menu to nd the DHCP assigned IP

address.

Note: The unit can be installed in a DHCP network environment where an IP address, subnet

mask and default gateway will automatically be allocated from the network DHCP

Server (DHCP is enabled by default).

Note: If a DNS (Domain Name Server) address is not to be used, it is strongly advised

that a xed IP address be assigned (a DHCP assigned address can change without

notication i.e. following power failure).

A xed IP address can be assigned via the Network Settings->Network menu.

For information on locating the unit’s IP address via a PC and serial port connection, refer to

Appendix D.

Default DNS Address

It is recommended that a DNS (Domain Name Server) address be congured. Assigning a

recognisable name can help a remote user to locate the unit.

If no System name is allocated to the unit, the default DNS address will be:

machine serial number.yourdomain.com

• <machine serial number> is displayed in the System menu

page and also on the underside of

the unit.

• <yourdomain> is the name assigned to your

DNS network.

The default DNS address can be renamed via the System->System menu. Following renaming,

the DNS address will be:

yourname.yourdomain.com

• ’ yourname‘ is the name assigned via the Network menu.

Note: To activate an assigned DNS address, it will be necessary to reboot the unit. The unit

can be rebooted via System Settings:Maintain-> Reset.
