Appendix A: Resetting the System Password or the

IP Address

When you forget the system password or the IP address of the DI-704P, you will
need to reset them.

Use a null modem cable (an RS-232 cable) to connect your computer and the
DI-704P using the serial ports of both machines (the com port on the DI-704P is a
serial port.)

After you have made the connection, launch a terminal program, such as the
Hyper Terminal of MS Windows 95. The connection parameters should be set
to 19200 8-N-1. Reboot the DI-704P. When the M1 indicator starts flashing
regularly, you can press the “Enter” key of the keyboard several times, there
should be some messages and a console prompt ">" will appear.

You may reset the IP address and the system password of the DI-704P. Please
remember to execute the SR command to save the changes you have made. For
example,

IP 192.168.0.1
