Patton M-ATA
Configuring Patton M-ATA to send Fax or call with 3CX.
1. Ensure that you have created the PSTN line in 3CX Phone System first. Take note of the
Authentication ID field and the Authentication password that you have entered for the line
connected to the M-ATA adapter.
2. Connect the M-ATA adapter to the network and mains power supply. The device will boot up,
and providing you have DHCP installed on your network, will obtain an IP address. To get the
exact IP address, check the most recent DHCP lease, or alternatively use a network scanner to
find the device.
3. Now point your browser to the gateway's configuration site: 'http://x.x.x.x', where "x.x.x.x" is
the IP address leased by the DHCP server to the adapter.
4. Once the page loads enter the standard password "root" and click on the "Authenticate"
button. This will provide the basic administration configuration version of the interface. Now
click on the "advanced" link on the top right hand side of the page. This will provide the
advanced administration configuration version of the interface.
5. Now click the "Network - LAN" and after that the "Settings" link on the left menu to
configure an IP in your local network and press "Save and Reload".
