4. Configuration
4.1 Initial configuration
Where a Agility or Agility Dual local and remote units are directly linked to each other, no configuration action is required, provid-
ed they have their factory default settings in place. If the standard settings have been changed in a previous installation, you
merely need to perform a factory reset on each unit - please see section 4.1.3 below.
4.1.2 Networked linking
Where Agility or Agility Dual units are connected via networked links, you can either configure them individually, or configure
them collectively using a ServSwitch iPath manager:
• Configuring networked Agility and Agility Dual units individually - You need to specify the network addresses of the
Agility units so that they can locate each other. This is done by running the browser-based configuration utility on a computer
system linked to the same network as the Agility units.
• Configuring Agility and Agility Dual units collectively - The ServSwitch iPath manager allows you to configure, control
and coordinate any number of Agility local and remote units from a single application.
IMPORTANT: When using the ServSwitch iPath manager to configure Agility units, it is vital that all Agility units that you wish
to locate and control are set to their factory default settings. Otherwise they will not be located by the ServSwitch iPath man-
ager. If necessary, perform a factory reset on each Agility unit.
4.1.3 Manual Factory Reset
A factory reset returns a ServSwitch Agility local transmitter or remote receiver unit to its default configuration. You can perform
factory resets using the browser-based configuration utility or by using this direct manual method.
4.1.3.1 To perform a manual factory reset
1 Remove power from the ServSwitch Agility unit.
2 Use a narrow implement (e.g. a straightened-out paper clip) press and hold the reset button adjacent to the front panel net-
work socket. Power on the unit and then release the reset switch. See Figure 4-1.
After roughly eight seconds, when the factory reset has completed, five of the front panel indicators will flash for a period of
three seconds to indicate a successful reset operation.
Figure 4-1. Use a straightened-out paper clip to press the reset button while powering on the unit.
