labeled INPUT 2. The monitor LED labeled 2 will turn on. The monitor LEDs will turn off if
the signal levels drop below +7 dBm.

5.3 Connecting RF output signals

Attach all output RF cables to the SMA output connectors. The RF signal from the active
channel is buffered and distributed to ten SMA connectors on the rear panel. The signal
level on these outputs are monitored and the status is indicated on the front panel. The
LED will be on when the output signals are greater than +7 dBm. A fault on any output
channel will generate an alarm and the corresponding LED will turn off.

5.4 Connecting the Ethernet port

The HPDA-15RMi-S has an Ethernet port which may be used for both monitoring and
control of the instrument using the telnet protocol. Connect the shielded RJ-45 straight
through Ethernet cable from the instrument to an Ethernet jack or hub on your network.

5.5 Ethernet port configuration

The HPDA-15RMi-S is factory configured with an IP address of 0.0.0.0 and DHCP
enabled. With this default setting, the network DHCP server will automatically assign an IP
address, gateway address and subnet mask to the instrument. A static IP address,
gateway and subnet mask may also be assigned to the instrument using the Digi Device
Discovery Tool software that is shipped with the instrument.
To assign a static IP address
1. Install the Digi Device Discovery Tool on a windows computer connected to the same
network as the HPDA-15RMi-S. The software is located in the root directory of the
memory stick that shipped with the instrument.
2. Turn on the power or reset the power to the HPDA-15RMi-S and set the CONTROL
switch on the front panel to the LOCAL position and the ACTIVE CH switch to the 1
position.
3. Run the Digi Device Discovery Tool software tool and click on configure network
settings. All network configuration changes require a password. The password is the
HPDA-15RMi-S serial number and it is case sensitive. In the screen shot below under
Device Tasks only the Configure network settings and Restart device apply to the
HPDA-15RMi-S. The Open web interface link and Telnet to command line do not apply
to the HPDA-15RMi-S. Under the section labeled Details is a list of the network setting
for the device that is selected from the list on the right side of the screen.
