Preparing to configure
the Securitron
Netlink board
In order to perform the initial configuration of the
Securitron Netlink, you will need the following:
A computer (PC or Mac) set to a static IP address in the
subnet 192.168.1.xxx, where xxx is a subnet address
(0 to 255) not being used by any other device on the
network. Do not use 192.168.1.9 or the final IP address
you will be using for the Securitron Netlink. Disable
any active WiFi connections. See image on right.
A web browser installed on the computer.
A standard (not crossover) Ethernet
cable long enough to reach between the
computer and the Securitron Netlink.
The Securitron Netlink to be configured must be
wired into the system and powered. After powering
the Securitron Netlink, wait for it to initialize -
when ready, the blue SYS LED will be lit steady.
After the Securitron Netlink is powered
within the system and initialized, connect the
Ethernet cable between the Ethernet ports of
the computer and the Securitron Netlink.
Logging into the
Securitron Netlink
for the first time
From the factory, the Securitron Netlink
is preset with the following settings:
IP Address: 192.168.1.9
Username: admin
Password: admin
Open a browser on the computer and enter the IP
address into the address bar. When propted, enter the
user name and password. Note that BOTH are case
sensitive. The Securitron Netlink License Agreement
and one or more Cybersecurity windows will also
appear. Read these and click OK (next page). The
home page for the Securitron Netlink should appear
in the browser window. See image next page.
NOTE: If the wrong password is entered three consecutive
times, the user will be locked out of the device for the
programmed lockout time (24 Hours by default). Enter
the password carefully to avoid lockout. This time
period may be changed on the configure page.
