CMG-DCM Data Communications Module

6 Configuration

All DCM modules feature an on-board Web server, which you can use
to set up the unit. When you first connect to the module, you will be

shown a menu tree in a panel on the left, with a summary of its current
status on the right.

The configuration options are accessed towards the bottom of the

menu tree, under Configuration. There are several pages of
configuration options.

Once you have changed settings on any page, click Save changes at the

bottom of the page to make the DCM apply them. If you move to a
different page without clicking Save changes, your changes will be

lost.

This chapter describes all the settings available to users of the DCM.
The name of each setting is shown on the Web page interface, and can

also be used to access the setting using the gcfgdbset command (see

Section 8.2, page 117.)

For each setting, you will have the option to

enable or disable the setting (

on/off, yes/no, etc);

choose from a drop-down list of options; or

enter your own information in a text box.

In each case, the Web interface describes the values the DCM will
accept.

If you are using gcfgdbset, and you try to change a setting to an

unsupported value, the program will report an error.

Note: The DCM is a flexible unit which can be supplied with a range of

feature sets depending on your requirements. A stand-alone DCM unit
normally has most of these options available to the user. However,

some of the settings described below may not be relevant to your
installation, and thus will not be available. If you are unsure which

packages you will need, contact Güralp Systems.

A DCM may be supplied which supports multiple instances of a
particular service (

e.g. several CD1.1 transmitters.) In this case, each

instance will have its own configuration page, which will appear as
described below for that service. Users of installations which include
