G The lightning flash with arrowhead
symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user of the presence
of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within
the product’s enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons. The exclamation
point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user of the presence
of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the product (i.e. this Quick
Start Guide).
G CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, do
not use the polarized plug supplied with the
device with any extension cord, receptacle,
or other outlet unless the prongs can be
fully inserted.
G Power Source: This Symetrix hardware
uses a universal input supply that
automatically adjusts to the applied
voltage. Ensure that your AC mains voltage
is somewhere between 100-240 VAC,
50-60 Hz. Use only the power cord and
connector specified for the product and
your operating locale. A protective ground
connection, by way of the grounding
conductor in the power cord, is essential
for safe operation. The appliance inlet and
coupler shall remain readily operable once
the apparatus has been installed.
G User Serviceable Parts: There are no
user serviceable parts inside this Symetrix
product. In case of failure, customers
inside the U.S. should refer all servicing to
the Symetrix factory. Customers outside
the U.S. should refer all servicing to an
authorized Symetrix distributor. Distributor

limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the

QUICK START GUIDE: SymNet RADIUS 12x8
Getting Started
Software Installation
SymNet Composer is the software that provides real-time
set-up and control of RADIUS 12x8 from a Win dows PC
environment.
Use one of the following procedures to install SymNet
Composer on your computer.
From the CD-ROM:
1. Insert the CD into your computer’s CD-ROM drive.
2. Open “My Computer”. The “My Computer” icon is
typically on your desktop or in the “Start” menu.
3. Double click on your CD-ROM drive. This is typically drive
“D:\”. If your CD-ROM drive isn’t “D:\”, then substitute its
drive letter.
4. Double-click “Setup.exe”.
From the Symetrix web site (http://www.symetrix.co):
1. Download the SymNet Composer software installer from
the Symetrix web site.
2. Double-click on the file you just downloaded and follow
the on screen directions to install.
After installing the software, refer to the Help File for full
connection and configuration information.
Network Setup
About DHCP
RADIUS 12x8 boots with DHCP enabled by default. This
means that as soon as you connect it to a network, it will
look for a DHCP server in order to obtain an IP address. If
a DHCP server is present, RADIUS 12x8 will obtain an IP
address from it. This process may take several minutes. With
your PC attached to the same network, and thus getting its
IP address from the same DHCP server, all will be ready to
go.
If your network does not have a DHCP server, RADIUS
12x8 will not be able to obtain an IP address. While waiting,
RADIUS 12x8 will default to a private IP address in the
range of 169.254.x.x where x.x is the last four alphanumeric
characters of RADIUS 12x8’s MAC address (MAC address
hex value is converted to decimal for IP address). RADIUS
12x8’s MAC address can be found on a sticker on the
bottom of hardware.
When there is no DHCP server present to assign IP
addresses to either RADIUS 12x8 or your PC, you may
need to configure your PC with a static IP in the range of
169.254.x.x with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0 in order to
communicate with RADIUS 12x8 in a direct connect mode.
However, if your PC is using the default network settings,
it should also have automatically self-assigned a similar
private IP address in the range of 169.254.x.x, and if this is
the case, you should be able to connect to RADIUS 12x8
directly.
Even if the PC’s default settings have been changed,
RADIUS 12x8 will try to establish communications by setting
up appropriate routing table entries to reach devices with
169.254.x.x addresses.
Connecting to RADIUS 12x8 from a host computer
on the same LAN
Both RADIUS 12x8 and the host computer require the
following 3 items:
1. IP Address - The unique address of a node on a network.
2. Subnet Mask - Configuration that defines which IP
Addresses are included in a particular subnet.
3. Default Gateway (optional) - The IP address of a device
that routes traffic from one subnet to another. (This is only
needed when the PC and RADIUS 12x8 are on different
subnets).
If you are putting RADIUS 12x8 on an existing network,
a network administrator will be able to provide the above
information or it may have been provided automatically by a
DHCP server. For security reasons, it is not recommended
to put RADIUS 12x8 directly on the Internet. If you do, a
network administrator or your Internet Service Provider can
provide the above information.
If you are on your own private network, directly or indirectly
connected to RADIUS 12x8, you may allow RADIUS 12x8
to choose an automatic IP address or you may choose to
assign it a static IP address. If you are building your own
separate network with static assigned addresses, you may
consider using an IP Address from one of the ”Private-Use”
networks noted in RFC-1918:
1. 172.16.0.0/12 = IP Addresses 172.16.0.1 through
172.31.254.254 and a Subnet Mask of 255.240.0.0
2. 192.168.0.0/16 = IP Addresses 192.168.0.1 through
192.168.254.254 and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0
3. 10.0.0.0/8 = IP Addresses 10.0.0.1 through
10.254.254.254 and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0
Connecting to RADIUS 12x8 through a Firewall/VPN
We have successfully tested control of RADIUS 12x8
through a firewall and VPN, but are unable to guarantee
performance of these types of connections at this time.
Configuration instructions are specific to each firewall and
VPN, so specifics are not available. Additionally, wireless
communications are also not guaranteed, though have also
been successfully tested.
