18.If you want to change the Gateway IP address shown, press <ENT> to get an edit screen.

19.As done above, finish editing the Gateway IP address, then press <ENT> to leave the edit session and save the results, or press <ESC> to leave without saving. Remember, that this must be the address of the router that allows you to connect to remote IP networks. If it is not set correctly, you will not be able to reach your iPump from remote networks, nor will you be able to do Return Path to the uplink control system using this LAN port.

20.When done, press <ESC> repeatedly until back at the Home screen. Now you are ready to access the iPump 6420 from your web browser.

2.4.2.Setup through the Front-Panel

This subsection gives you a checklist of items to setup or check to get your iPump 6420 on the carrier and ready for satellite-based network control. Very few items are suggested for user setup, because normally Compel will control must unit settings, and the web interface is much more fully-featured (and thus recommended). These instructions are fairly terse, and, if any difficulty, please refer to the general guide on the Front-Panel interface in Chapter 3. In some cases, control of some or all of the following parameters has been disabled by a factory setting. In this case, it was assumed that the unit was setup well enough to lock onto the carrier and receive Compel network commands when first supplied the correct antenna connection. You may then reference section 2.5 to see if the indications all show OK, and, if not, use the Troubleshooting guide in Chapter 4.
