5 Communicating with the MP1

®
Connect a standard Ethernet cable between the TELSEC MP1 and your local Ethernet switch or router.
You can also direct connect to the system with your PC using a crossover Ethernet cable and setting a
static IP address on your PC. The MP1 has a default IP address of 192.168.1.31. Use this address to log
into the unit and then change the IP address to a new permanent setting.

5.1 Connecting to the System

The built-in web server uses a username and password combination to authenticate a user and allow
access. No information will be shown without proper authorization. The default setting uses HTTP
protocol with a username of Admin and password of admin. The username and password are case
sensitive so make sure your caps lock key is turned off. The default password along with the five
available user level passwords can be change once you log in and go to the Settings/User Administration
web page. Keep track of your password because there is no way to access the system without a valid
password. The system will have to be cold started to return to default settings if the password is
unknown.
