Remote Operation - Motorola DSR-6100 Operator's Manual

Remote Operation

The DSR-6100 decoder can be operated remotely from a web browser. When the decoder
is contacted via an HTTP session from a computer, the decoder's web server responds to
the HTTP session with a login dialog box that requires the user to login with a security-
based user name and password. Once the login is successful, the decoder's web server then
presents the decoder's home page to the computer and remote operation can begin.
Some of the IRD configuration settings and control inputs that are accessible through
HTTP include:
• Virtual channel and audio language selection
• Status and device information (e.g., signal strength, alarms, unit address)
• Soft reset
• Settings for acquiring a satellite signal (e.g., transponder frequency, input port)
• Video and audio output customizations
• Alarm triggers
• ASI and Ethernet output customizations
To configure the DSR-6100 for remote operation
Contact your network administrator for the IP Subnet Mask address, unique IP address,
1.
and default gateway address to assign to this decoder.
Caution: To use DSR-6100 remote operation, each DSR-6100 on the subnet must be
assigned a unique IP address. Failure to assign a unique IP address to each DSR-6100
on the subnet will result in loss of connectivity with the original IP address conflict.
To configure the decoder, use the decoder's arrow buttons on the front panel to perform

the following procedures:
• 10/100 IP Address Menu, page 49
• 10/100 Subnet Mask Menu, page 49
• 10/100 Default Gateway Menu, page 50
Use an RJ-45 cable to connect the decoder's Ethernet 10/100 port to the subnet that will

be used to operate the decoder remotely.
