After racking and cabling your iPump6420, it is now time to bring it up on the satellite 

carrier (if applicable) or get it connected to the internet (if applicable), such that full Compel 
network control may be implemented.  This will allow your iPump 6420 to fully participate in 
the rich feature set of WEGENER’s MediaPlan-based Store/Forward system. 

In many cases, your unit was already pre-set at the factory per the instructions from your 

network provider, and require no setup operations by the local user.  In that case, see Section 2.5 
Unit Indications, to confirm unit operation.  If, however, your unit is not fully configured for 
your site, then continue reading. 

To start, check with your network operator to find out how your iPump6420 will be 

controlled.  Typical satellite networks require network control over the satellite channel.  
However, special Microcasting sites will pull their network control commands and media file 
downloads solely over the internet.  After you have decided how you need to get network 
control, then you need to configure, or check configuration of your i6420 unit.  If you are going 
to use local web control, then you are going to need to network a working computer, with 
approved web browser (See Specifications, Chapter 1) to your i6420, and then, from the Front-
Panel, set the i6420’s LAN IP address.  Subsection 2.4.1 covers this issue. 

If you are not using web control to setup the i6420, but need to do some configuration 

through the Front-Panel user interface, then see subsection 2.4.2.
