GV5/GV3.5 OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE MANUAL OPERATING THE TRANSMITTER
VERSION 0.2 2014-07-23 PAGE 3.2.139
Network Setup - Using the AUI
1. Open the
User Settings
page by pressing
Menu/User Settings
on the
Home
page (see
Figure 3.2.120 on page 3.2.138 ).
2. Select the
Network Setup
option (left-side of the screen) to display related information and
associated parameters on the right-side of the screen. (see Figure 3.2.121 on page 3.2.140 ).
3. Enter the following parameters (where applicable):

Mac Address
- Displays a number that serves as unique network adapter identifier. This is set
by the manufacturer and is displayed for informational purposes only (cannot be user set). It
may be necessary to use this number to allow the AUI to access your network.

DHCP or Static IP
- Defines whether the
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
,
Default Gateway
,
Default Nameserver
and
Alternate Nameserver
will be provided manually (
Static IP
) or
automatically by the access point (i.e., a router) through
DHCP
. In either case, the access point
must be configured with the correct settings, which match the settings on the AUI in order for
the AUI to access the network. Your parameter selection affects other parameter entries. If
Static IP
was selected, enter the
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
and
Default Gateway
.

IP Address
- displays unique numerical network identifier for the transmitter.

Subnet Mask
- Masks an IP address, and divides the IP address into network address and
host address.

Default Gateway
- Defines the address of the network access point.

Default Nameserver -
Address that identifies the DNS host. The DNS (Domain Name System)
translates internet domain and host names to IP addresses. DNS automatically converts the
name in the web browser address bar to the IP addresses of web servers hosting those sites.

Alternate Nameserver -
Redirects the name server.

Port Number -
Used to identify the senders and receivers of messages. Also supports port
forwarding (remapping) which allows the AUI of multiple NV Series transmitters to be
accessed on the same network. See your network router documentation for additional
remapping information and instructions.
NOTE:
Changes to this port are reset to 3501 after a software upgrade. Reconfigure as required.

Status -
Identifies the status of the network.
– Running: transmitter is connected to a network and is functioning properly.
– Not Running: transmitter is not connected or is not functioning properly. When in this state,
remote AUI access is not possible.
