Getting Started

Connect the internet and then the power wire from the 

power adapter to the power connection socket.

There is no turn on / off button. As soon as you connect 

TS-EPS to the power line, the device will be on. During 

the reboot process, the lights of the LEDs (STATUS, 

ETHERNET and SERIAL PORT 1) of the TS-EPS change 

to show green when connected. If the TS-EPS does not 

show the STATUS as green after 1 minute, contact FFS 

Technical support (800-984-6266). 

Setup Communication Parameters

By using the Port Server Utilities®, find the TS-EPS 

connected to internet:

Figure 6: Port Server Utility Screen: iPV4 and iPV6 Values

Ask your internet provider to reserve an IP address to your 

TS-EPS. If no address is reserved for the TS-EPS, TS-

EPS will obtain one that is available from the DHCP server.

By using the IP address assigned from your service 

provider or using the one that TS-EPS obtained, launch a 

browser and enter this IP address as a URL. You should 

see a welcome screen that  describes the unit.
