is shown on the LCD.
2. Release the button.
3. After reset is complete, press and release the

button once to view the network status
screen on the LCD. The new IP address of the panel will be displayed.
ROUTER CONFIGURATION
This section explains how to set up the panel behind a router and enable remote access to the panel
over the Internet.
A router allows multiple PCs to share a single Internet connection. To enable access to the panel over
the Internet, you will need to configure your router to forward incoming remote data to the local IP
address of your panel.
The following steps use a Linksys WRT54G router as an example.
1. Log in to your router and go to the port forwarding screen. In the Linksys WRT54G, this is located in
the
Applications and Gaming
tab. The location of port forwarding may be different on other routers
(consult your router manual for instructions).
2. To configure HTTP forwarding, following these steps:
a. Enter a unique name in the
Application
field.
b. Enter the HTTP port number that the panel is using in the
Start
and
End
fields. If you are
using the default panel port settings, the port number is
80
.
c. Select
Both
under
Protocol
(TCP and UDP).
d. Enter the local IP address of the panel (e.g. 192.168.0.180) in the
IP Address
field. See
step 2 of
Web-based Configuration Utility
section to find the actual local IP address of
your panel.
e.
Check
Enable
, and then click on
Save Settings
.
NOTE:
Many ISPs block access to port 80. If your ISP does block port 80, you will need to change
the HTTP port the panel uses from 80 to something else, such as 8000. Valid port numbers
are in the range of 1 - 65535. See the
Network Setup
section for instructions on how to
change the panel network ports. You will also need to change the HTTP port number from
80 to something else if your local network already contains another device using port 80
such as another panel or a web server.
