Administrator's Guide for the V500 System
Using the Setup Wizard
3 - 2
When you power on the system for the first time, a setup wizard begins to run.
The setup wizard automatically detects your system's IP and ISDN
connections, and it leads you through the minimum steps you need to take to
place a video call.
As you go through the setup wizard, you may need additional information or
you may want to change a default setting. If this is your situation, refer to the
rest of this chapter. You will find information there about how to configure
your IP and ISDN connections for your particular network environment.
The setup wizard enables you to set an administrator password, which allows
you to limit access to the Admin Settings. The default administrator password
is the system's serial number.
Make sure you can recall the administrator password if you set one. If you forget the
password, you will have to reset the system, delete the system files, and run the
setup wizard again in order to access the Admin Settings and reset the password.
You cannot set the administrator password from a remote location.
You can run the setup wizard or view the configuration screens in either of
these two ways:
•
Directly on the system — Use the remote control to navigate the screens
and enter information. You can use the number pad on the remote control
to enter text just like you can with a cell phone.
•
From a remote location — Use a web browser to access the V500 web
interface. To do this, your network must be set up and you need to know
the IP address of the system; therefore, this may not be an option if you are
installing your system for the first time in a new location.
You can use the V500 web interface to configure all of the system settings
except the remote management settings. These settings must be configured on
the local system by an administrator. For more information about the V500
web interface, refer to refer to
Managing the System Remotely
on page 5-1.
