Configuring Your RTX
To create a new RAID and data volume, follow the steps below. If you purchased your RTX pre-
configured, you may skip to the last step (connecting the RTX to your computer).
1.
Connect the RTX to Your Network or Computer for configuration.
a.
Plug an ethernet cable into the "LAN GUI" port on the rear of the RTX.
b.
Connect the other end of the ethernet cable to your network. Usually, this means plugging it
into a router or hub. In an office environment, you may have a network jack built into your office wall. If a
network connection is not available, you can connect the ethernet cable directly to an RJ45 (ethernet)
port on your computer.
c.
Connect the power cable to the rear of the RTX and to a grounded electrical outlet.
d.
Turn on the RTX unit's power using the switch on the rear panel.
2.
Use a web browser to access the GUI (Graphical User Interface).
If you are connected to a DHCP-enabled network
On DHCP networks, a new IP address is dynamically assigned to the RTX's LAN GUI port as soon as the
network detects it. You can determine this address by checking the LCD interface on the front of the
RTX. It will appear in this format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Simply type this IP address into a web browser on
your computer. This will access the RTX's GUI, which you will use to configure the unit.
If you are connected to a static network
a.
Check your computer's IP address. To do this in Windows, open Network Connections in the Control
Panel. Double-click on your network and then click on the Support tab. Your computer's IP address will
be displayed. Mac users can find this information in System Preferences
b.
On the RTX's LCD interface, press ENT and then scroll up or down to
R T X 4 0 0 - U R & R T X 6 0 0 - U R U s e r ' s M a n u a l
Network.
Change IP
Setting. Press ENT.
