Configuration, RRC 1258 / Re: remote rig on 10.10.10 network

so when I get back to the EMA/911 center, I'll try that....but I'm not certain we have a router, this is just a private fiber network strictly for us, between the center, and the tower shelter about 100 ft away....like I said, we can ping all 4 units, and find them using the microbit software.....going from memory, as I dont have the units here at home, but I believe there were 4 lines to configure

IP
Subnet
Gateway
DNS server(?)

so I should set

10.10.10.xxx
255.255.255.0
10.10.10.1

and what about the last line?

Wonder if it would help if we set these up on a 198 type network first, to program them via the web interface, and then after programming, go in and change the IP address back to a 10.10.10....would the other programmed parameters stay the same?

yes, we are using fixed addresses.....i programmed the addresses in using the setup manager....trying to remember, if I recall , I couldnt leave the gateway and DNS blank on that screen, so I made them 192.168.0.1...if thats not correct, what should be in there?

do you mean in the RR units? I think it was 192.168.0.1 for both of them, and if I recall the subnet was 255.255.255.0....heres where it gets fuzzy, because the PC we are using doesnt have a internet connection....how do we configure the PC to use a web browser, without a true internet connection?

one pair is setup for 10.10.10.7 and 17 and one pair 10.10.10.8 and 18, the PC we are using is 10.10.10.6....we can ping all 4 units, and see all 4 units using the setup manager find from the PC....

so, is there a setting wrong somewhere that is preventing us from accessing it via a web interface? We tried both IE and Chrome, neither worked....but then again, we have no internet access, only intranet....

yep, we did that, we can find them all using that method now.....but there is no way to program them from the setup manager is there?

not sure what to put in for the gateway and DSN server though, since we are not using any....

Hardware, Cabling, Installations / IC-7100 cables?

« on: 2018-04-04, 19:36:30 »

so only one cable is supplied with the remote rig unit, does it matter if that one is used on the control unit or the radio unit? Will the factory supplied cable work on one of the ends? If not, what are people using for the second cable?

so took one step forward, another step back.....we can ping the units using their assigned ip addresses, but cannot connect to them via the web interface to program them....must have missed a step somewhere?

Thanks Mitch, we are inside our own private network, but I can change them just to be safe....any recommended values ?

Did you change the port number on the RRC's web page? If you did, you need to append the URL with
a colon followed by the port number, i.e. 10.10.10.8:1234.

Otherwise, use the Microbit Setup Manager to search for the RRC's on the network. If they are there, then
it will find them. You can then click on the "browse" button to get on the web page.

Make sure that your two sets of RRC's use different port numbers, otherwise it won't work once installed.

If you want my networking checklist that walks you through the installation process, drop me a short mail
at dj0qn (at) darc.de and I will send it to you.

so even though they will have different IP addresses ( I was going to use 10.10.10.7 and 17 for one, and 8/18 for the other) they still need different port addresses ?

trying to configure two remote rigs to control two IC-7100 at our 911 center...downloaded and installed the setup software, configured the first pair to use 10.10.10.8 and 10.10.10.18....that went very well....now the the step says to try to connect to them from a web browser, by using the IP address....when I type 10.10.10.8 in the google chrome, it comes back as not being connected to the internet....which it isnt, I know that, its just on its own internal network....so....assuming I set these up correctly using the setup software, what should the next step be to see if its working?
