This chapter explains how to access and navigate the System Management Terminal and gives an overview of its menus.

17.1 SMT Introduction

The HomeSafe’s SMT (System Management Terminal) is a menu-driven interface that you can access from a terminal emulator through the console port or over a telnet connection. This chapter shows you how to access the SMT (System Management Terminal) menus via console port, how to navigate the SMT and how to configure SMT menus.

Follow the steps below to access your HomeSafe via the console port.

Configure a terminal emulation communications program as follows: VT100 terminal emulation, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, data flow set to none, 9600 bps port speed.

Press [ENTER] to display the SMT password screen. The default password is “1234”.

17.1.2Procedure for SMT Configuration via Telnet

The following procedure details how to telnet into your HomeSafe.

Step 1. In Windows, click Start (usually in the bottom left corner), Run and then type “telnet 192.168.1.1” (the default IP address) and click OK.
