A user-supplied web browser allows the full M&C of the LPOD-R through its Web Server

Interface. This embedded web application is designed for use with Microsoft’s Internet Explorer

Version 5.5 or higher. It is a non-secure web application.

See the Remote Commands and Queries specifications tables in Chapter 5. OPTIONAL SERIAL-

4.4.1 Enable the Web Server Interface

To enable the Web Server Interface in the LPOD-R using only a 100BaseTx remote interface

running a Microsoft Windows OS:

1. Select Start, then Run, then type

cmd.

2. Click OK to open the command

prompt window.

3. Start a Telnet session with the

unit at the default IP address of

192.168.1.4.

4. Enter the Telnet username and

password. The default for both

parameters is Comtech.


5. Set the remote access parameter

to accept Ethernet remote

control using the LRS command.

LRS=3, the default remote

command, provides Serial +

Ethernet control, while remote

command LRS=2 provides

Ethernet control only.

You must assign a unique IP Address for each unit on the network before connecting to an

existing network. The IP address may need to be changed from the factory default setting.
