Chapter 2: IMS-4000 Software

This chapter is designed to help you program and use the IMS-4000 to its fullest potential. The

IMS-4000 system helps you maintain, monitor, expedite and control the things that affect your

information infrastructure.

The IMS-4000 ConsoleView Software provides an extensive Help system to supplement the docu-

mentation. Use IMS-4000 Help to access information about commands and dialog boxes. Online

help is also available simply by selecting Help from the main menu.

This section presents a useful shorthand guide to configuring your IMS-4000 System for the first

time. More detailed information on the processes covered can be found in the sections that follow.

Install the IMS-4000 Host and Node(s). Configure the Network settings through the serial port on

the front of the units. A terminal or terminal-emulation program can be used. Set the terminal set-

tings for 9600bps (8, N, 1). The default password is "ims4k."

Install the IMS-4000 software from your CD-ROM or other media. Double-click on the IMS-4000

icon on your desktop. The IMS-4000 ConsoleView screen will appear. From the main menu select

Enterprise, then Add Enterprise Group. See below:

Right-click on the words IP Unknown below the enterprise name and select Set IP Address. Enter

the IP address for your IMS-4000 Host and click OK. The software will prompt you for a username

and password to log in.

For new units, the default username is admin and the default password is ims4k. The software will

now attempt to connect to your IMS-4000 Host. A progress bar will show the software retrieving

information from the Host.

Note: Do not save the default username and password, because it will be deleted automatically

once a Master System Administrator profile is configured.
