The RTR-500W Settings Window
II) The Settings Process
Making settings to control the operation of the RTR-
500NW/AW is a remarkably straightforward process
that is all accomplished through the Settings
Window, shown here. The window is divided
vertically in two, with page selections in the left hand
pane and page contents on the right. Settings are
made by selecting a settings page from the pane on
the left and then filling in the entries in the page on
the right. The process starts with the top page (Base
Unit Settings) and then moving down the page list,
making the settings page by page, until the last page
(Settings for Sending Recorded Data) has been
completed. (We will talk about Transmission Tests
later in Section 12.)
AFTER MAKING SETTINGS BE SURE TO
CLICK ON “APPLY” BEFORE LEAVING
EACH SCREEN
1. Base Unit Settings
There is not much to discuss here. The Base Unit Description field can be used to enter a logical name for the RTR-500W that may
have more meaning to you than the factory assigned serial number. This can be particularly helpful if you have more than one 500W
on your network. The LAN Password will be used to access the 500W later when it is connected to your network, rather than via
USB.
