Configuration
Initial configuration
The iPEPS initial configuration process occurs as two distinct parts. The
standard iPEPS and the Dual Access models differ in Part 1 of their
configuration, but behave in an identical manner for the Part 2 configuration.
Part 1 – Initial configuration
This part of the configuration takes place using either a locally connected
keyboard and video monitor (Dual Access model only) or a computer
connected to the same local network as the iPEPS. It allows you to set up key
basic details, network essentials and security key creation.

Unit config screen
Allows you to determine a mixture
of basic and fundamental setup
details such as the keyboard layout,
admin password, time and date.
Network config screen
Requires you to configure the
various key aspects of the IP
network port addressing.
Secure keys screen
This screen uses your mouse movements
or keyboard inputs to create random
data. This unpredictable information is
then combined with several other factors
to develop the basis of the encryption
keys that are used to establish secure
remote links.
Part 2 – Remote configuration
This part of the configuration takes place using a remote network
connection. It allows fine tuning of the part 1 configuration items
plus the creation of multiple user accounts. Go to Part 2 - Remote
configuration.
Part 1 – Initial configuration (Dual Access model)
When controlled via the locally connected keyboard and video
monitor, as the iPEPS Dual Access model is switched on for the
first time it will take you through a set up sequence consisting of
three main screens:
Controlling the local configuration menus
The local menus use only the keyboard. Use the keyboard arrow
keys to move the green highlight indicator to the required position.
Then, either type the required information or use the left and right
arrows to change multiple choice items, as appropriate.
Problems?
The iPEPS asks for an unknown admin password

Part 1 – Initial configuration (Standard or Dual Access models)
Connect the iPEPS to an IP network and use a computer located on the same
network to connect to the iPEPS. See page 16 for details.
