Element Manager Reference section below. To configure the unit for your network
setup, select the Properties button to display the unit's properties, and select the
appropriate tabs.
Note: If you are going to add a number of similar Datacryptor Ethernet units, the
easiest method is to create a virtual unit and then use this virtual unit to
configure them.
Direct Invocation of Front Panel Viewer
It may be advantageous to start the Front Panel Viewer directly from Windows instead of going
through the element manager. This may be achieved by:
1. Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the location of the DC2k.exe file, create a shortcut
and place on your desktop.
2. Click on the shortcut.
3. The Element Manager Supply IP Address will be displayed.
Enter the IP address of the Datacryptor Ethernet unit and press Enter or OK to continue. After a
few seconds this should display the Front Panel Viewer as shown in Step 8 of the previous
section.
