6 CONFIGURE
6.1 Introduction
All R60 station settings are collected in the main category Configure. Settings that can
be changed are for instance communications interface capabilities, VDL data link and
other AIS features, clock reference sources, etc.
This chapter explains how to set the different base station parameters in the R60 via
the web GUI. For detailed descriptions about the meaning of each parameter, please
refer to the documents Ref [2], Ref [3], Ref [4] and Ref [5].
When the Configure category is selected a password is required (Figure 6-1).
Figure 6-1: Password is required to enter the Configure category
The default password is “Config” (case sensitive), but please note this password is also
a parameter that can be changed by the user. If the password is accepted, the
Configure page with a number of sub-categories appear. It looks like in Figure 3-7.
In each of the sub-categories listed on the Configure category page, you can modify
the R60 settings.
6.2 Editing and storing changes
When a sub-category is selected, the current values of all settings on that particular
sub-category page are automatically read from the R60 unit and displayed in the GUI.
It should be noted that if a settings value is changed it is not automatically written to
the R60. The unit will continue operating with previous settings until the changed
settings are saved by clicking on the Save Settings button.
The Save Changes button is only visible when (unsaved) changes have been made.
When a settings parameter is changed, the Save Changes button appears in the upper
right corner of the browser window.
When edited parameters are saved, they are stored in the R60 station. New settings
are used right away by the R60 unit.
Note that to save changes the Save Changes button must be clicked before leaving the
page where the changes have been made. If the web page is left for another page or
category before the Save Changes button is clicked, then all unsaved changes are
abandoned (lost).
