User's Manual

Remote access to the pilot beacon may be gained through a LAN connection and a terminal emulation program for TCP/IP. As with the
serial connection, many terminal emulation programs will work, if properly con• gured. In the following description, “TeraTerm” is used to
establish the Telnet session. Also, it will be required that the network con• guration of the computer and the pilot beacon being controlled
be set up with the same Sub Net and Sub Net Mask in order to establish a link. In other words, the IP addresses of both the computer
used and the pilot beacon must use the same group of IP address number sets. For example, the pilot beacon ships with the default IP
address of 192.168.1.100 and a Sub Net Mask of 255.255.255.0. In order to connect, the computer to be used for the link would normally
need an IP address of something like 192.168.1.12 with a Sub Net Mask of 255.255.255.0, the same Sub Net Mask as the pilot beacon.
In this example note: the last digit of the IP address may be any number except 1,100 and 255. Con• guring your PC is normally fairly
straight forward but it does vary somewhat with the operating system involved. If you require assistance, contact your IT department and
they will be able to set up your PC for you or you may review the Additional Tips Section at the end of the manual.
When the TeraTerm program is started, the following screen is displayed. Change the default host IP address to the IP address of the pi-
lot beacon to be controlled. In the case of a new install, the default address is 192.168.1.100 and has been assigned at the factory. Select
the service Telnet. The TCP Port must be 23.
Pressing the “OK” button will bring the user to the following screen, which will require the user to log in. The default user name is
“user”. The default password is “csi1234”.
In the • eld after the prompt “DSP85-cell-X login;” type the user name and password. After typing the password press the enter key and
the main menu will be displayed as shown in the text menu section.
Telnet and serial sessions both provide access to the same Text Menu Interface. We have already shown many of the options available
and all are self explanatory, so they will not be repeated.
