Appendix A: Network Installation

ƒThe WebMSM software is installed on a client PC and allows the user to monitor and control the MTM400. The WebMSM can be used to monitor all compatible devices on a network (if the appropriate license is held).

ƒThe Remote User Interface (RUI) software, based on the WebMSM, is downloaded and accessed from the MTM400 using a browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer with Microsoft Virtual Machine installed) of any networked personal computer.

The provided HTML file allows you to open the RUI by typing in the URL http://<IP address> or network identity on a Web Browser on a client PC. The user permissions are set up to allow an Administrator to have read-write permissions and a User to have read-only permissions.

When logging in, the default password for the Administrator is 'tek'; by default, the

User does not require a password.

Before proceeding, ensure that the following information is available:

ƒMTM400 MAC address: xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx Location 1: rear panel

Location 2: main circuit board (internal)

Location 3: instrument top cover (optional)

ƒMTM400 IP address: yyy. yyy. yyy. Yyy Assigned by network administrator

ƒMTM400 software license: zzzz-zzzz-zzzz-zzzz Location 1: instrument top cover (optional)

MAC Address

The Transport Stream Processor board in the MTM400 unit is assigned a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address; this is also used as the unique address of the complete unit. The MAC address is printed on labels attached to the Processor card and the unit.

The MAC address is written as six pairs of hex digits separated by hyphens, for example, '00-01-F8-A7-33-CC'.

The MAC address must be associated with an IP address for the unit to be able to function within a network.
