ADDING ADDERLINK INFINITY UNITS

When new ALIF transmitters and receivers are added to a network, they are designed to

automatically announce themselves* to the A.I.M. server. Once the A.I.M. server receives

their announcement(s), the ALIF units will be added to the administrator’s view of the

Dashboard. From here you can then begin to congure each new ALIF unit.

* ALIF units can be congured either from their own browser-based conguration utility or via

the A.I.M. server. Once an ALIF unit has been congured in one way, it cannot be recongured

using the other method without undergoing a factory reset. This policy is in place to help prevent

accidental overwriting of congurations. It also means that once an ALIF unit has been locally

congured, it will not announce itself to the A.I.M. server upon being added to a network. Please

see right for details about resetting an ALIF unit.

If an ALIF unit is not located

There are several reasons why an ALIF unit might not be located by A.I.M.:

• The ALIF unit has been locally congured or is otherwise not using its factory default

setting. Try performing a factory reset on an ALIF that is not being located.

• The ALIF unit is not located in the same Ethernet segment as the A.I.M. server. Double

check connections and move units where necessary, so that all reside within the same

Ethernet segment.

• There is a potential cabling problem between the ALIF and A.I.M. units. Check and

where necessary, replace faulty cables.

AdderLink Innity manual factory reset

Where a previously congured ALIF unit is being added to a network for control by an

A.I.M. server, you can use this method to reset the unit to its default conguration.

To perform a manual factory reset

1 Remove power from the ALIF unit.

2 Use a narrow implement (e.g. a straightened-out paper clip) to press-and-hold the

recessed reset button on the front panel. With the reset button still pressed, re-

apply power to the unit and then release the reset button.

After roughly eight seconds, when the factory reset has completed, ve of the front

panel indicators will ash for a period of three seconds to indicate a successful reset

operation.

Use a straightened-out paper clip to press the reset button

while powering on the unit
