Exalt Graphical User Interface (GUI)
The Exalt GUI is the primary user interface for configuring and troubleshooting the radio
and radio system. A computer or hand-held device with a conventional HTML browser
and Ethernet port is required. Microsoft Internet Explorer is the preferred browser.
Netscape, Mozilla, and Firefox are also supported.
Preparing to Connect
If the radios are new, both radios are preconfigured as Radio B, and have the same IP
address. The initial priority is to configure one radio to Radio A and assign different IP
addresses, unique to each radio.
There are two ways to change the IP address:
1. Use the CLI interface through the console port (serial), as described in Command
Line Interface (CLI) on page 66
2. Connect to the GUI using the default IP address (10.0.0.1), and change the IP
address through the GUI interface.
Note: If the radio’s current IP address is unknown, use the CLI
interface through the console port to retrieve it and/or change it. Or
perform a complete radio reset as described in
Reset to Critical Factory
Settings
on page 56.
Note: To connect to the radio’s Ethernet port and use the GUI
interface, the accessing computer must match the radio’s IP address
subnet. It is therefore necessary to either change the radio’s IP address
through the CLI to match the subnet of the computer, or change the
computer’s IP address to match the subnet of the radio (such as, a
computer IP address of 10.0.0.10 if trying to connect to a radio set to the
factory default IP address of 10.0.0.1).
There are three ways to configure a radio as Radio A:
1. Use the temporary hardware configuration key, as discussed in Temporary
Hardware Configuration Key (Standard Models Only)
on page 39.
