● Part 1: Hardware Connection
1. Start by going to the back of the machine and connect the power cables for each tester unit one by one.
2. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the Tester to the Cotrol Unit, daisy-chaining the Tester using Ethernet cables in sequence.
3. Insert the Aviation Plug Line into the corresponding channel connection ports for each unit.
4. Connect the equipment to the computer.
Either connect the Control Unit directly to the computer using an Ethernet cable or use a switch or router to connect the computer to the Control Unit.
When using a router, ensure that the Ethernet cables are plugged into the LAN ports.
● Part 2: Configuration and Introduction of the Control Unit
Connect the power supply and turn on the device. The screens of the Control Unit and Tester will light up.
On the device's body, you can find the following information on the label: Control Unit Number, Control Unit IP, and Server IP.
The four buttons on the body from left to right are, in order, "Back," "Increase," "Decrease," and "Confirm."
The main menu on the Control Unit's display has two options: Channel Status (Item 1) and Configuration (Item 2).
1.Select the second option, "Configuration," and press Confirm to enter the submenu.
2.The first item in the submenu, Device ID: 68, represents the Control Unit identifier.
The second item: Get IP Addr: MANUAL, represents the method for obtaining the IP address, which includes two modes: manual and automatic.
Item 3: MAC address refers to the physical address.
Item 4: "LP" is the Local IP, and it should be set according to the factory label.
Item 5: SM (Subnet Mask) is a fixed value.
Item 6: GW (Gateway) is set to 192.168.1.1; you don't need to change this.
Item 7: SP is the Server IP address, set to 192.168.1.250.
The Server IP address and the IP address used for the local connection on your computer (e.g., Ethernet on WIN10 and WIN11) must match.
Otherwise, you won't be able to connect to the computer.
Note: It is not recommended to configure a single network adapter with two IP addresses.
If you need to connect to a device while having internet access on your computer simultaneously, it's advisable to configure a wireless network adapter, use a USB-to-Ethernet adapter, or use a computer with dual network cards.
