Configuring Network Settings

The following steps are required to make the XLi’s Main CPU card operational on a network. Do this if
you plan on using the command line or web interface to manage the XLi over the network.

Using the front panel keypad/display configure the network port settings as follows:

Configuring the XLi

Enter the XLi’s IP address as the address in a browser and log on to the XLi’s web interface. The factory
set user name is “operator1” and the password is “zeus”. If this XLi was field-upgraded for IEEE 1588
operation, the password may also be “casey”.

Click the Admin Home link and then the Accounts Admin link. Change the factory set user

names and passwords.

Click the Admin Home link and then the Option Bay # GPS M12 RECEIVER link.

Verify that the Antenna Cable Delay is correct. For the standard 50 foot (15.24 m) coaxial

cable supplied with the GPS antenna, the Antenna Cable Delay is 60 ns. To compute the cor-
rect value for other antenna cable lengths, see

“F51 – GPS Antenna Cable Delay” on

page 55

.

-

Leave GPS Operation Mode as “Dynamic” and Time Reference as “Primary”.

Click the GPS Config & Status link. After approximately 20 minutes of operation, check that

GPS Clock Status is locked and GPS Antenna is OK.
