Configuration Steps

To configure the Rack and Switch Cards using the Switch Management Interface:

1.Install the Switch Management Interface on the PC. (see page 5-6for more information) Connect the PC to the ADMIN Port (P110) of the Rack.

2.Run the Switch Management Interface. Click on the Settings icon to select the PC’s COM port to connect to the Rack (ADMIN port). (page 5-30for more information)

3.Open or create a password file. A password file must be open to connect to the Rack. (see page 5-11or page 5-12for more information)

4.Once a password file is opened or created, the Switch Management Interface will automatically try to connect to the Rack. If successful, all installed Switch Cards display under the Hardware tab.

Note: If the Switch Cards do not appear, check the COM port settings under the Settings icon. (see page 5-30for more information)

5.Change the administrator password from the default (000000), (page 5-15).

6.Add users by selecting the Users tab. For tighter security, create a separate user for each remote module. Assign passwords to users manually or allow the Switch Management Interface to randomly create them. See page 5-19for more information.

7.Assign users to a User Group. Select the User Groups tab and create User Groups for the password file. Add users to each User Group as desired. If only one user connects to each Switch Card, each User Group may have only a single user. If all users can use all cards, create one large User Group and download it to every card.
