Available only on MC5-IP models,
the IP port configuration menu
allows you to determine settings that
relate directly to the global (IP) user
aspects of the unit:

•

Unit Configuration
IP admin password, encryption
settings, etc.

•

Network Configuration

IP address, net mask, VNC port,
etc.

•

Modem Configuration

Baud rate, initialisation string,
etc.

•

Reset Configuration

Completely resets the IP portion
of the MC5-IP unit.

Unit Configuration

This page provides access to
a selection of both basic and
fundamental settings for the MC5-IP.

Keyboard
Use the arrow buttons to match the
keyboard layout expected by the host
system.

Admin Pwd
Enter the password that will be used
to gain administrator access to the
MC5-IP. There can only be one admin
user and only that user is given access
to the configuration menus. The
admin password background will be red until a reasonably secure password has
been entered, although this is only advisory as any password or no password
may be entered.

Unit Name
The name entered here will be displayed on the local menus and the remote
VNC/browser windows.

Time and Date
Use the left and right arrow keys to select the correct time and date. The time
entry uses the 24 hour clock notation. The internal real time clock will continue
to run for roughly one week without power to the unit, after that it will be lost
and require resetting. Use the up and down arrow keys to move between each
of the sections within the time and date entries.

Encryption
Three options are available: Always on, prefer off, prefer on. The one to choose
depends on the specific details of your installation - see

Encryption settings

for

details. The use of encryption imposes a slight performance overhead of roughly 10%
but is highly secure against third party intrusion.

To get here

1 From a local or remote (not accessible from a global keyboard), log on as

the ‘admin’ user.

2 Press

(hotkeys can change).

3 Press to select ‘More menus’.
4 Select ‘Functions’.
5 Select ‘Configure IP port’.
