2: Getting Started

This chapter covers basic configuration that should get you started using the SCS. Topics include methods
for setting up the SCS and ongoing maintenance issues such as restoring factory default settings. You can
perform almost all of these configurations using EZWebCon (the recommended method for initial
configuration), the web browser interface (recommended for further configurations), or by issuing
commands at the command line (Local> prompt).
This chapter assumes that you have completed the following steps, which are described in your Installation
Guide:
The SCS is running operational code (i.e. the unit has successfully booted).
The SCS is connected to an Ethernet.
The SCS has been assigned an IP address.

2.1 Configuration Methods

EZWebCon is the recommended method for initial configuration. However, the web browser interface and
the command line offer options for advanced configuration.

2.1.1 EZWebCon

The EZWebCon utility is the easiest way to initially configure the unit. EZWebCon guides you through
configuration using a graphical interface.
EZWebCon is included on the CD-ROM that is shipped with each SCS unit. Instructions are listed in the
Read Me file, also located on the CD-ROM. For assistance once EZWebCon is running, refer to the
EZWebCon online help.

2.1.2 Web Browser Interface

The web browser interface allows you to log into and configure your SCS using a standard web browser.
To connect to your SCS using the web browser interface, do one of the following:
