Password fields
Only personnel logged in as administrators can set and read passwords.
The two Password fields on the TCP/IP screen are for entering administrator
and/or user passwords. Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 upper
case and/or lower case alphanumeric characters. When logged on as a user,
characters in these fields are masked by asterisks (*****) and are not editable. If you
do not want to password protect an access level, leave the associated Password
field blank. After entering the desired password in one of the fields, touch the Take
button.
Date field
The Date field displays the current date in the Greenwich Mean Time zone. If
necessary, adjust the date. When you touch the field, a set date field appears with
the date in the format (M)M/(D)D/YYYY
displayed and are not required for entry (5 or 05 are both acceptable entries for May).
Time (GMT) field
The Time field displays the current time in the Greenwich Mean Time zone. If
necessary, adjust the time. When you touch the Time field, a set time field appears
with the time in the 24-hour format HH/MM/SS (00:00:00 to 23:59:59)
Leading zeroes are displayed in the set time field but are not required for entry.
Matrix Name field
Only personnel logged in as administrators can edit the Matrix Name field.
The Matrix Name field contains the name used as the "from" information when the
Matrix 12800 e-mails notification of its failed or repaired status. This name field
can be changed to any valid name, up to 12 alphanumeric characters.
Hardware Address field
The Hardware Address field is factory programmed on the primary controller
board in the Matrix 12800 BME 0 and cannot be changed.
Matrix IP Address field
Only personnel logged in as administrators can edit the Matrix IP Address
field.
The Matrix IP Address field contains the IP address of the connected Matrix 12800
BME 0. This value is encoded in the flash memory on the primary and redundant
BME controller circuit boards.
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields separated by
dots (periods). Each field can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes,
up to 3 digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other equipment at
your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.
Gateway IP Address field
Only personnel logged in as administrators can edit the Gateway IP Address
field.
The Gateway IP Address field identifies the address of the gateway the
Matrix 12800 uses to access the mail server if the Matrix 12800 and the mail server
are not on the same subnet.
The Gateway IP Address field has the same validity rules as the Matrix IP address.
