7 Operating the Equipment

The CP560 is conﬁgured and controlled locally and remotely through a Flash-based Web inter-

face. The only application required on the computer to use this interface is a Web browser and

the Adobe Flash Player.

Note: Adobe Flash Player 9.0 or newer is required to use the Web interface

of the CP560. As a general rule it is recommended to always use the latest

oﬃcial release of Flash Player (version 10 or newer). If the Flash Player is

not installed on the adminstrator PC, a copy is provided on the CD delivered with

the device. Alternatively, the latest Adobe Flash Player can be downloaded free of

charge from

http://www.adobe.com.

Note: When using Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 6.0 or higher is

required. It is however recommended to upgrade to version 8.0 or newer

for best performance.

7.1 Accessing the graphical user interface

The default IP address of the CP560 will most probably not be suitable for the network where the

unit will operate. Initially therefore, the user should change the IP address of the management

interface so that access may be gained from the network.

The CP560 oﬀers two options to alter the user interface IP address; through an Ethernet con-

nection or using a USB terminal interface. If your management computer allows setting a ﬁxed

IP address, change the IP address using the Ethernet option described in Section 7.3.1.

If a static address cannot be conﬁgured on your management computer, Section 7.3.2 gives the

procedure to initially conﬁgure device network parameters (IP, netmask, etc...) using the USB

terminal interface.

Conﬁguring the device functionality according to operational needs is done using the Web

interface, see Chapter 8.

7.2 Password protection

Remote access to the device is controlled by password protection. If you access the CP560 using

the USB terminal interface a password is not required.

There are 3 user levels providing diﬀerent user privileges, each with a separate default password:

Username Default password Privileges

admin salvador Full access to device

operator natal Conﬁgure setting, cannot alter passwords

guest guest View conﬁguration and alarm logs
