Perform a System Test
Once the RFTCP is mounted and automation devices have been attached, follow the steps
below to perform a system test
:
1. Turn on the unit. The blue LED on the front should be on.

the password.
If connecting remotely from another computer, launch the web browser and enter
the URL of the box using its IP address. The IP address can be set manually or a
dynamic (DHCP) address can be used.

:
a. Attach speakers or headphones to the appropriate “audio out” jack(s
