Apply power on to the 2300 Controller. The front panel will first display a splash screen with
the AquaMetrix logo. If the 2300 Controller is operating properly, the LED's on the back panel
indicate proper operation. The Power ON should be lit, the Fault should also be lit, and the
System Operating should be blinking. The green LED on the Ethernet connector indicates a
valid network link. The yellow LED will blink when there is network activity.
Before configuring the probes, you have some housekeeping tasks to do which, although
optional, do allow you to use the 2300’s full capabilities like emailing.
2.1. Password Change
Yes, you get requests for password changes all the time, but if you want security and don’t
want all the other purchasers of 2300’s to know your username and password, now’s the time
to change them. Select Setup, User Maintenance, and then add a user. Make sure that you
click on Admin for the user level, and write down the username and password. You can also
add multiple users at the Admin, Editor, or User levels in order to track via the logs which users
have done what to the 2300. Logout, then log back in under your new admin name, and
delete the default name “admin”.
2.2. Time Setup
The time of day sets automatically if the 2300 is connected to the web via an NTP time server.
To manually set the time, select Setup, System Configuration > Name > Time
Configuration. Time zone, date, and time are set here. This page also allows you to
customize the name of the 2300, identifying the unit by location or function or zodiac sign.
2.3. E-Mail Setup
The 2300 is preconfigured with an SMTP server entry suitable for sending emails and alerts
along a network. The email sender is
[email protected] . If you want to set up
sending from your own email account, talk to your IT Department or follow the directions
below. Note that the 2300 internal web server does not support SSL security protocol, so you
may have to establish a third party email provider such as juno.com to generate the emails.
To change the email server, select Setup > Network Setup > Email Setup > SMTP
Connection Setup. The two required configuration values are the SMTP server address and
the SMTP port. The SMTP server address can be entered as a DNS name (e.g.
SMTP.mycompany.com) or an IP address (192.168.2.200). The SMTP port is a number that is
assigned by your IT department and is normally 25. You should get both of these values from
your IT department. The Global From Address will be used in all email messages as the
sending email address (e.g. [email protected]). You also need to enter email
addresses, optionally enter form emails to use later, and send a test email.
2.4. Configure Data Logging
If you will be using the data logging feature of the 2300, check that the default settings for the
data file are what you want. Default values are:
1. Data log files will be kept for 15 days
2. Data will be logged every 5 seconds
