Once you have the unit connected, open up your browser and go to “http://192.168.1.12/setup”. You will be prompted for a
username and password. The default username and password is “admin”.
NOTE: The setup can only be done through a browser and is not viewable through the VGA or DVI ports.
From here you will need to set the following settings:
1. On the
Network tab, set the IP Address , Subnet , Gateway and DNS addresses to match the network you want to operate
the ELS on. After clicking Submit you will lose connection with the ELS. Please connect the ELS to the network it now
belongs to.
2. Set your computers IP address to access the ELS on its network, and then re-enter the setup screen by going to http://
[new IP Address]/setup.
3. On the General tab, set the Date, Time, and Time Zone that matches the ELS geographical location.
4. On the Security tab, fill out the
User Registration form and click the Submit button. This will create the System
Administrator account for the WebSuite Digital Signage CMS.
5. On the Security tab, enter in the name of your company, the email address of the primary contact for ELS administration,
and your Activation Key . You will find the Activation Key on the outside of the box that the ELS unit came in. Then click
Submit.
6. On the SMTP tab, enter settings for an SMTP server the ELS can use for email notifications. This is not required to
operate the WebSuite but is required for the “Forgot Password” feature.
Your ELS is now set up and ready to use.
Getting Started
Before proceeding with the installation of the ELS unit, please check to make sure everything was received:
• ELS Hardware Unit
• Power Supply and Cable
• Activation License (on the outside of the box the unit comes in)
• Quick Setup Guide (this document)
Connecting to the ELS and Initial Setup
The ELS comes with the default network configuration:
• IP Address - 192.168.1.12
• Subnet - 255.255.0.0
• Gateway - 192.168.1.1
To connect to the ELS and change its settings, you need to have the ELS connected to a network that matches the default
configuration, or use a cross-over Ethernet cable to connect it directly to a computer.
If you choose the cross-over cable approach, you will need to set the network settings on your computer to match the ELS
settings except for the last number in the IP address shown above. Then you must change the network settings on the ELS
(described in Step 1 below). After changing the network settings on the ELS and attaching it to its intended network, you
will need to change the network settings on your computer to a setting where you can access the network where the ELS is
connected.
