Network status

Menu “Ethernet status”

If the QPSK-receiver is used in a network with automatic DHCP-address assignment,

the address assigned by the server is displayed.
Interruption of an existing network connection causes the error message “Ethernet of-

fline".

Network configuration
Menu “Ethernet

configuration”

Network configuration is carried out via a LC-display or PC. Necessary information

about the submenus listed below can be found in the operator manual “Network ac-

cess control”.

NOTE

:

Before you connect the QPSK-receiver to the network,

contact your network provider

For network configuration the following points are available:

l

Network Mode (setting of the DHCP address auto/man; at a change, the CPU
on the board “Controller Assy” performs a reset)

l

Network IP

(is assigned when DHCP is auto, to be set in manual mode)

l

Network IP Mask (is assigned when DHCP is auto, to be set in manual mode)

l

Network Gateway IP (is assigned when DHCP is auto, to be set in manual mode)

l

Network DNS IP (is assigned when DHCP is auto, to be set in manual mode)

l

Network MAC chip address of the Ethernet-controller

Menu “PPP status”

Indication of the availability of the PPP connection (remote control RS 232).

Menu “PPP configuration”

For the PPP connection (for stand-alone devices) the following menu items are availa-
ble:

l

PPP baudrate: Input of the baudrate for the RS 232 connection

l

PPP IP: Input of the IP address of the BS8000 devices

l

PPP remote IP: Input of the IP address of the PC

l

PPP login name: Input of the user ID

l

PPP login password: Input of the password

Mail
Menu “Mail settings”

In network operation, configuration of the mail parameters is to be carried out via the
submenus of this menu.

l

Netmail sending: Select the type(s) of messages you want to send (e.g. Errors and
warnings). If you, for example, INFO errors, warnings and info will be sent.
Errors will reduce the messages to error only.

l

Netmail server IP: Input of the mailserver IP

l

Netmail account: Input of the mail account

l

Netmail dest.: Input of the email address
