4 Setting Up the RCP-200
4.1 Preliminary
The controls provided on the RCP-200 fall mainly into three groups:
•
Controls used to configure the RCP-200 itself – see section 4.3.
•
Controls used to locate and take control of a device - see section 5.
•
Controls used to configure or operate the device – see section 6.
See section 3 for an overview of the controls found on the RCP-200.
4.2 Power-up
Connect the external 12V power adapter to an AC source, and connect the adapter output to the RCP-200 power input
on the rear panel. The unit will power up immediately, as there is no on-off switch.
The RCP-200 provides full power redundancy with 2 separate power inlets (labeled 1 and 2) that are typically fed by 2
different power adapters plugged onto 2 different AC power circuits. The second power supply is optional.
4.3 Configuration
The RCP-200 operates as a client of one or more Miranda appservers. It is therefore necessary to specify an IP
address for the RCP-200 itself, and to identify the appservers by their IP addresses.
Assigning the RCP-200 an IP address
The RCP-200 is shipped with an IP address of 10.0.3.200. On installation, you should consult your local IP department
or network manager and replace this address with an appropriate address for your local network configuration.
•
The same procedure can be used to modify the IP address at a later time.
Proceed as follows:
1. Press the CONFIG button, located between the two screens on the front of the RCP-200.
2. Touch the COMM category at the top of the right-hand screen
3. Touch the ETHERNET tab on the right-hand screen
