Select Names and Passwords from the "configuration" drop down menu. Here, you can set up to three levels
of password protection for the SPM-200, allowing you to restrict which user(s) in your organization are able to
view or change the unit's settings. Although these settings are optional, Newmar Power highly recommends
that you at least set up the Administrator account to prevent unauthorized changes to the network and
administrative settings. Note, factory defaults, User Name: Admin and Password: admin
If a given account's username and password fields are left blank, then the level(s) of access controlled by
that account are available to anyone who connects to the unit. Accounts are listed in order of privilege, from
highest to lowest, and lower-privilege accounts cannot be set unless the higher-privilege accounts above them
are set as well; i.e. you cannot have a Control account without an Administrator account, and you cannot
have a View-Only account without both a Control and Administrator account.
Administrator: this account has complete access to the SPM-200; all pages are viewable, and any setting can
be changed – including the ability to change any other account's passwords. Note that this account is the
only account which can access the Config page, and that you must configure this account before you can
configure the Control or View-Only accounts.
Control: this account is able to view all of the web pages except for the Config page, and is able to change
alarm settings on the Alarms page.
View-Only: this account is able to view only the sensor and camera pages.
Once you have configured these accounts the way you want them, click the "Save" button. If you have
configured an Administrator account, the unit will now ask you to log in with that username and password
before you can continue.
As always, don't forget to click the "Save" button when you're done.
At this point you have two options:
1) Continue using the PC and the crossover cable to finish configuring the SPM-200, and later connecting it to
the network it will really use. If you want to choose this option, skip over the section "Setting the Internet
Address" for now, and come back to it later.
2) Connect the SPM to the real network now. To do this, complete the next section now and connect the SPM
to the real network as soon as you've set the Internet Address
5.4.1 Setting the Internet Address
The next step is to set the "IP" or Internet address of the SPM. Each SPM is initially set to 192.168.1.123 when it
is built so the user can do the initial configuration, but that will probably need to be changed when a unit is
installed.
There are a couple of ways to get an internet address:
• The simplest way is to use what's called a "Static" IP Address. A static address is just what it sounds like, an
address that never changes. If the SPM will be part of a local network, the network administrator may be
able to assign an address.
• If you intend to connect your SPM to the public Internet through an ISP, you will have to have a public
static IP address so that it can be reached from a browser. It may not be possible to get a static address –
your ISP may only be able to assign a dynamic address. If this is the case, see Appendix A for a solution.
Scroll down on the "Config" page until you see the network settings:
5.5 DNS Servers
The "DNS" or "Domain Name Servers" section lists the addresses of the Internet servers that the SPM-200
will call to resolve Web names like "mail.xyzco.com" to their actual IP addresses. The values shown are for
demonstration purposes only – consult your system administrator or Internet Provider to get the values for your
network.
