terminal interface.
1. Connect your Friendly Integrated Paging System (FIPS) terminal to the Serial port on the
front panel of the RF-B! transmitter controller and log into the FIPS session (see

Choreographer! network manager, check the value of the Choreographer! network
manager Internet Protocol (IP) address programmed into the RF-B! transmitter controller.

r 500 <Enter>
The terminal displays the Choreographer! network manager IP address.
4. Correct an invalid IP address.
At the prompt, type:

manager IP address)
5. Verify the state of the RF-B! transmitter controller paging mode.
