OPTIMOD-FM DIGITAL
INSTALLATION
2-45
This program installs the necessary files and adds an Orban / Optimod 8300
folder to your computer’s Start Menu. This folder contains shortcuts to the PC
Remote application and to the documentation. If you accepted the option dur-
ing installation, there is also a shortcut to the PC Remote application on your
desktop.
You have now installed all files necessary to use the PC Remote software. If you are
using a direct serial or a modem connection, the next step is to install and configure
the Windows communications services that allow your computer to communicate
with your 8300.
Appendix: Setting Up Serial Communications
on page 2-47 provides
details.
Setting Up Ethernet, LAN, and VPN Connections
If you are using an Ethernet connection and your computer can successfully connect
to the Internet through its Ethernet port, it already has the correct (TCP/IP) network-
ing set up to communicate with the 8300. In most cases, all you need is your 8300’s
IP address, Port, and Gateway number, as set in step 1 on page 2-37. You will enter
these when you create a “connection” to your 8300 from the 8300 PC Remote appli-
cation — see step (E) on page 3-63. If your computer does not have a working
Ethernet port, you will need to add one and then following the instructions pro-
vided by Microsoft to set it up to enable TCP/IP networking.
If you wish to connect to your 8300 through your LAN or VPN (through a WAN or
the Internet), consult your network administrator. Note that to cross subnets, you
must specify a gateway. If the PC and 8300 are on the same subnet, then it is unnec-
essary to specify a gateway.
If you are behind a firewall, you must open the port you specified in step (1.E) on
page 2-38. If the gateway, port, and firewall (if used) are configured correctly, it is
possible to connect 8300 PC Remote to a 8300 via a VPN.
Conclusion
By carefully following the instructions in the Appendix, you should have successfully
installed the necessary Windows services and connected to your 8300. However, if
you experience any problems with this process, or have any other 8300 questions,
