Using the Web Server
Managing the
Connection
Profiles
Managing connection profiles can be done directly from the
ProFlex Web Server after you have logged in as the
administrator. In this context, go to the
Configuration tab and
use the
Advanced Setup menu (Administrator and Users
submenus) to make the required changes.
The default administrator profile is defined as follows:
• Login: admin
• Password: changeme
Local Settings for
the Receiver
Administrator & IT
Manager
You should inform your IT Manager of the following before he/
she can set up the connection:
• The ProFlex 800 is not fitted –and cannot be fitted– with
a firewall. If a firewall is needed in your local network, it
should be installed on a device other than the ProFlex
800.
• The Ethernet port and the DHCP mode are active by
default.
• TCP/IP port #80 is used by default in the receiver.
If however, the default settings have been changed in the
receiver, you may have to do the following:
• Turn on the Ethernet port.
Use the command below to power up the Ethernet port:
$PASHS,ETH,ON
When the port is on and connected, the Ethernet icon
appears in the lower-right corner of the receiver screen. By
default, the Ethernet port is on.
• Set the DHCP mode or assign a static IP address.
Use the command below:
$PASHS,ETH,PAR
The syntax of these two commands is fully described in the
ProFlex 800 Reference Manual, Set Command Library
Chapter.
