AM-10HD / Aug 2008
A M - 1 0 H D G U I
First, enter the same pet name that you used when you assigned the IP address to the
AM‑10HD. The above dialog shows us adding a new device called “WABC AM10_2.”
Then enter the IP address that you configured the AM‑10HD for in the previous
steps. Note that it is always best to completely delete any existing data in the IP Ad‑
dress box and enter the complete address from scratch to avoid having any invisible
blank spaces in the data.
After this is done you may click “OK” on the Edit Device box. Then, in the Devices
dialog box, highlight (single left click) the AM‑10HD device that you just added and
click on “Select.” This step tells the GUI specifically which AM‑10HD you want to
connect to.
Next, click on the Online/Offline button just to the left of the Status indicator.
In the Status window you may see the message “Trying” as the GUI is handshaking
with the AM‑10HD. Once the handshake is complete and communication protocols
are locked in the Status message should revert to “Online.”
If for some reason the GUI cannot connect with the AM‑10HD, the “Trying” status
message will remain and will occasionally blink as the GUI retries the establishment of
a connection. Under these circumstances the configuration of the GUI and AM‑10HD
should be carefully examined to ensure that the destination TCP/IP address is consistent
between the two.
