Uncheck the DHCP checkbox to allow assignment of a static IP address.  Edit the IP address value as 
required.  Note that when DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned IP address will be displayed next to 
the DHCP checkbox.  Only when DHCP is disabled will the IP Address field value be applied to the STG. 

Save the STG Settings 

After editing the STG configuration settings, click the Save button in the browser.  You will see a red 
status message in the browser:  

Your information has been submitted successfully, please restart 

system!

 

Restart the STG 

To apply your saved settings, click the Restart button on the STG main browser page to cause the STG to 
restart.  As the STG is restarting, you will see a red status message in the browser:   

System is restarting, 

page will reload automatically in 30 seconds. If you have changed the system IP you may need to re-
discover. 

Configuration 

The STG is configured via a browser based configuration page that can be located at the current IP 
address of the STG.   

Notes: 

1.

 

All configuration edits must be saved and the STG must be restarted before the configuration 
changes are applied by the STG. 

2.

 

STG does dynamically detect the attachment and un-attachment of USB to serial adapters, and 
automatically updates the status table on the configuration page. 

3.

 

The STG is hard coded to listen for SIP UDP communications on IP port 5060 

4.

 

The Serial Paging Systems configuration values apply to all connected Serial Paging Systems.  
Typical Serial Paging Systems configuration uses 9600 baud, no parity, and 8 data bits. 

5.

 

Flow control on WaveWare paging systems can use a combination of hardware, software, or 
TAP response code flow control.  Flow control is typically used when a paging systems input 
message queue becomes full, requiring a signal to pause message output until that signal is 
reversed.  On the Ethernet Paging System output, the STG monitors for the 512 TAP response 
code to indicate full message input queue (see TAP output processing flow chart below) 

DHCP 

DHCP mode allows the STG to obtain an IP address assignment from a DHCP server on the LAN that the 
STG is connected to.  DHCP should only be used when first installing the STG, so that the STG can acquire 
an IP address that allows its configuration page to appear in a browser on the same LAN that the STG is 
on.  The STG ships with DHCP enabled.  The WaveWare Discover and Reset Tool application is typically 
used during installation to discover the STG’s assigned IP address, and to allow single click launch of the 
STG’s browser based configuration page.  Note that when DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned IP 
address will be displayed next to the DHCP checkbox.  Only when DHCP is disabled will the IP Address 
field value be applied to the STG.
