Setting up the 9300-RADES for an Ethernet Connection 1. The 9300-RADES has a default IP address:192.168.1.1 subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 2. On your PC, select Start>Settings>Network Connections>Local Area Connection. 3. 4. 5. 6. Click on the properties button Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click on the Properties button Enter an IP address and Subnet Mask on the same network as the RADES; make sure that this address is not used by anything else on the network. Do not use 192.168.1.2 (See note below for explanation) Open your browser window and enter 192.168.1.1 7. The Web Browser username: Admin and password: ZYPCOM this can be changed under Set Security. PLEASE NOTE: The 9300-RADES uses three IP addresses when a modem connection is made. One for the management interface (192.168.1.1 by default), One for the PPP Client traffic (Assigned in Step 5 above), and one for the PPP server traffic (Always the management interface IP plus 1, 192.168.1.2 by default). Do not use these three IP addresses for any other nodes on the network. Troubleshooting: If your browser window will not open: 1. Make sure you do not have a proxy server in place; if so, disable it. 2. Make sure that your IP address is correct. 3. Make sure you did not change the IP address with a bootp server or DHCP server. 4. Make sure the RADES has power. 5. Make sure that you have a lit LED on the connected Ethernet port of the RADES and your computer s Ethernet port. If not lit, this indicates an Ethernet cable issue. If modem will not connect: 1. Check to ensure that the phone line is one continuous cable (no spliters or couplers). 2. Make sure you are dialing the correct phone number. 3. Check your username and password (username: ppp_user password: ZYPCOM by default). 4
Setting up 9300-RADES for a Modem Connection 1. On your PC select Start>Settings>Network Connections>Make New Connection 2. Select Connect to Network at my Workplace 3. Select Dial Up Connection and type a descriptive site name 4. Type your remote site s phone number in the box 5. Select Do not use my Smart Card 6. Select availability of the connection 7. Click Finish 8. Type the username: (ppp_user by default), type the password: (ZYPCOM by default) 9. Click on Properties and select the Networking Tab, Click on settings button and make sure than Negotiate multi-link for single-link connection is unchecked (it should be by default) Click OK 10. Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the components box and click Properties 11. Select Use the following IP address and assign an available address on the remote network, do not use 192.168.1.2 on a default unit. (see note below for explanation) 12. Open your browser Window and type 192.168.1.1 for a default unit, the web username is: Admin, password is: ZYPCOM this can be changed under Set Security PLEASE NOTE: The 9300-RADES uses three IP addresses when a modem connection is made. One for the management interface (192.168.1.1 by default), One for the PPP client traffic (Assigned in Step 5 above), and one for the PPP server traffic (Always the management interface IP plus 1, 192.168.1.2 by default) Do not use these three IP addresses for any other nodes on the network. Troubleshooting: If your browser window will not open, 1. Make sure you do not have a proxy server in place; if so, disable it 2. Make sure that your IP address is correct 3. Make sure you did not change the IP address with a bootp server or DHCP server 4. Make sure the RADES has power 5. Make sure that you have a light on the connected Ethernet port of the RADES and your computer 6. Make sure that you have not used RADES IP, IP +1, or the IP address assigned in Step 11 for any nodes on the remote network. 7. Disable the Ethernet connection on your PC (this will not always be necessary, depends on the Windows configuration) 5

Upgrading your 9300-RADES! Attention: Do not Upgrade a 9300-RADES on a running system, this procedure requires a power cycle. Ethernet communications will be lost for about 60 seconds. 1. Open a DOS prompt and type ftp 192.168.1.1 (IP address may vary) 2. 3. 4. The FTP username is: uploader, password: ZYPCOM by default. This can be changed under Basic Configuration>Set Security. Use the Put command to send the firmware file to the modem. Type: put File Path\boot.img The modem will update and power cycle automatically to complete the flash procedure. Please note that you will lose communications on your Ethernet Switch during this procedure.! Do not cycle power during the flash procedure. The unit will automatically power cycle when the flash procedure completes. If power is lost before this point, the unit may be rendered inoperable. 5. 6. Re-establish your FTP session (Steps 2 and 3) Use the Put command to send the Web browser data file to the modem. Type: put File Path\webdata.img Note: boot.img and webdata.img filenames will always be the same; the name does not change with the firmware revision. Therefore, once the upgrade process is complete it is important to check the firmware version on the RADES home page. Note: Flashing the unit does not wipe out your IP address or passwords. * To access RADES home page see the directions for establishing an Ethernet connection or a modem connection. 7
Performing a Factory Reset of your 9300-RADES The 9300-RADES offers two levels of reset. The first level resets the IP address only, the second level resets all of the settings to default Materials Needed: - Small Screwdriver or paper clip - AC power supply included with the modem kit Resetting the IP address only (Sets RADES to 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0) 1.
