RC-1216H
Bootloader firmware upgrade
This follows the same steps as the application firmware upgrade procedure above.
Restart device
Restart device can be used if you want to reset and restart the RC-1216H without saving any
changes (before apply changes) or just for ordinary reset.
Networks and Firewalls
One of the major obstacles when trying to remotely control something is the fact that the
Internet Service Provider (ISP) forces us to use dynamic IP addresses. We can never know,
from time to time, which IP address our modem / firewall / router has on its outside interface
(the IP address you will try to connect to). Most people use NAT routers that translates IP
addresses on the inside (your little LAN) to one common IP address on the outside using port
conversion.
At the remote end the router must be configured so that port 80 (default settings) is directed
to the RC-1216 which should have a static IP address. If you have other remote controlled
equipment connected to the router port 80 is probably already in use and you need to change
the webserver port from 80 to something else. In the example below where we have setup
the Linksys router we have used port 8000.
You will also need to register the RC-1216H to DynDNS (www.dyndns.com) so you can use a
host name to connect to it regardless of its dynamic IP address (which can change without
notice, but rarely does). If you already have a DynDns account registered for any equipment
connected to the same router, you do not need to register any specific for the RC-1216H.
The following default IP ports are used (changeable)
