3 Configuration


The RCP-10x0 remote control panel is configured with the use of an on-board web server.

Access to the web server requires the user to enter the RCP-10x0’s IP address in the browser’s address
window. This IP address will vary with the current operating mode of the RCP-10x0.

3.1 Operating

Modes


The RCP-10x0 can be placed in one of two modes, using rear-panel DIP switches. The web server
configuration pages are available in both modes, but the modes differ in several respects:

Configuration mode – the web interface has a fixed IP address and the panel cannot be used to

control a router.

Operation mode – the panel can be used to operate a router. The web interface IP address may be

variable, and a system log of information, warning and errors is maintained as a troubleshooting tool.


See section 4 for information about the OPERATION mode, and instructions for operating the
RCP-10x0.

A bank of 4 DIP switches is accessible on the back panel.
