Creating a New Password
You should change the access password for the DSL-300 Configuration Utility
program when you first setup the device. In order to change the password you
will need a console program such as Microsoft HyperTeminal installed on your
PC and an RS-232 cable.
The HyperTerminal program is included with Windows operating systems. If it is
not available see the instructions for installing HyperTerminal from the
Windows installation program. Once it is installed, you can access
HyperTerminal from the Start menu. To access HyperTerminal, choose
Accessories, then select the Communications file, open the HyperTerminal file,
double-click on the HYPERTERMINAL.EXE file and follow the instructions from
the prompts.
Once you have the active HyperTerminal screen in view on your desktop, hit the
Enter key. The Internet Protocol (IP) address of the DSL-300 will be displayed.
The cursor in the terminal screen should be blinking immediately to the right of
the IP address. Type in diap passwd followed by a space and the new
password, and hit the Enter key. For example, if you want to create a new
password such as “Open”, you would type diap passwd Open and the new
password is now “Open”. This will be confirmed by a message on the terminal
screen stating that the new password is Open. The password is case sensitive, so
enter it exactly how you would like the password to be entered.
When you have entered the new password and received confirmation you must
save it for the change to go into effect. To save the new password type config
save and hit the Enter key. A message will inform you that the configuration
is being saved followed by a confirmation that the configuration has been saved.
When you have successfully changed and saved the password you can end the
session by simply closing the HyperTerminal window or by typing exit and
closing the window.
