QUICK START: DS72 Module
by Bay Technical Associates
For those Administrators who have requested the bare minimum for this type of equipment, follow
these steps exactly. If this is a new unit shipped directly from Baytech, follow the steps. If this is a
previously own unit, perform a factory reset to clear out any users and passwords still in the unit.
Ethernet Controller Configuration:
Before continuing your System Administrator needs to tell you to use DHCP or BOOTP or give you an
IP Address, Subnet Address, and Gateway Address.
1. Connect the 9FRJ45PC-4 or 9FRJ45PC-1 adapter to your PC.
2. Connect the supplied rollover flat cable RJ08X007 to the adapter and to the EIA232 serial port
on the Baytech DS62 Module.
3. Use terminal emulation software to access the unit, (i.e. Microsoft Hyper-terminal). Set the PC
serial port configuration to the following: 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1stop bit and no parity.
4. If you get only a blinking cursor Press ‘Enter’. If still only a blinking cursor, Type 5 semi-colons
(;),The Attention Character will not echo on the screen. There is a one second delay before the
menu is displayed. You should see a menu similar to (Figure 1).
5. Select ‘C’ for the configuration menu.
6. Select the DS72 module. You should see a menu similar to (Figure 2).
7. Select the number for ‘Login Setup’ option. You should see a menu similar to (Figure 3).
8. Select the number for ‘Manage Users’ option. You should see a menu similar to (Figure 4).
9. NOTE: The ‘admin’ user can not be deleted.
10. Select ‘A’ to add user. Type the name and password at the prompts.
11. Press ‘Enter’ until get to the ‘Login Setup Menu’ (Figure 3).
12. Select option ‘Access Control’ to enable or disable the Tenet and Serial Login Prompt.
13. Press ‘Enter’ until you get the Configuration menu (Figure 2).
14. Select ‘Network Port Configuration’ option. You should see a menu similar to (Figure 5).
15. If your System Administrator requires you to use DHCP, then select ‘DHCP Enable/Disable’
and type ‘Y’ to enable DHCP, or select BOOTP and type ’Y’ to enable BOOTP. If you wish to
assign a static IP address to this unit, disable the DHCP and BOOTP and go to step 18.
16. Press ‘Enter’ until you are asked to ‘Accept Changes’. Type ‘Y’ to accept changes.
17. After Accepting or Declining Changes Press ‘Enter ‘ until you get the Network Access Menu
(Figure 1).
18. Select ‘Unit reset’ to update the external connections. Once the reset is completed (1 minute)
connect the Baytech device to your network using an Ethernet cable.
19. If you disabled the DHCP in step 15, you should see a menu similar to (Figure 5).
20. Select the ‘IP Address’ option and type the assigned IP address and press ‘Enter’.
21. Select the ‘Subnet Mask’ option and type the assigned subnet mask address and press
‘Enter’.
22. Select the ‘Gateway Address’ option and type the assigned Gateway address and press
‘Enter’.
23. Press ‘Enter’ until you are asked to ‘Accept Changes’. Type ‘Y’ to accept changes.
24. Press ‘Enter’ until you get the Network Access Menu, (Figure 1).
25. Select ‘Unit reset’ to update the external connections. Once the reset is completed (1 minute)
connect the Baytech device to your network using an Ethernet cable.
At this point you have setup enough basic configurations to operate this Baytech unit.

Serial Port Setup
• Connect the 9FRJ45PC-4 adapter to the user’s computer
• Connect the Host Module’s EIA-232 port to the adapter via the RJ08X007 rolled flat ribbon
cable.
• Default configuration is 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity.
NOTE: At any time during the session you need to go to another menu, use the Attention
Character = semi-colon (;). Press the attention character key 5 consecutive times to get back to
the main status menu.
NOTE: Depending on the DS-Series model, the menus will vary according to the number of DS74
modules installed in the unit. If this is not an initial set-up and Password has already been enabled,
you are prompted to login. After logging in successfully, invoke the main menu by sending the
attention character five times (;;;;;).
NOTE: Password feature is case sensitive. (Default is user/password is root/baytech)
