G. Log into the EN-1000
1On the computer, open a web browser. In the browser’s address
field (URL field), type the EN-1000’s default LAN IP address
(192.168.10.1) and press the Enter key.
❖The browser displays the EN-1000 Management System Log-In
Screen. If the user name (admin) is not displayed, type it.
2Type the password:
•EN-1000 routers that were shipped before July 9, 2018, use the
default password encore!1.
•Routers shipped on or after July 9, 2018, use a randomly
generated default password. It is listed in the lower right corner
of the label on the bottom of the EN-1000 chassis.
Note: Even if you change the router’s password, save the default
password, in case the router must be reset in the future. For
details, see the document Password Policy for EN™ Routers.
3After typing the password, press the console’s Enter key or select
the screen’s button to Log In (located below the entry fields).
❖The EN-1000 management screen opens.
4Select the management system’s Quickstart tab.
5Configure the EN-1000 for its role in the network. For details, see
the EN-1000™ Quick Configuration Guide.
H. Log out of the EN-1000
To close the EN-1000 management session, select the tab to Log Out.
If the management system is unattended for several minutes, the
session will log out automatically. To resume management, log in again.
Note: The EN-1000 remains active and continues its network
functions, regardless of management access.
The EN-1000™ is for use in 4G CAT-1 LTE networks.

EN-1000 Chassis Front
C. Install the SIM
Use a Mini SIM (2FF Subscriber Identity Module) for your
cellular wireless 4G CAT-1 LTE Account.
1Make sure the EN-1000 is not connected to a power source.
2Connect antennas to the ports labeled MAIN and AUX. (Get
antennas from your EN-1000 distributor.)
3Insert your cellular wireless 4G CAT-1 LTE SIM into the SIM socket
on the front of the EN-1000 chassis. Make sure the SIM’s notched
corner is the left corner going into the SIM socket.
Note: Push the SIM in just far enough to catch. (If you need to
remove the SIM, press it again. It will pop forward so that you can
remove it.)
D. Connect the Antennas
1Connect antennas to the ports labeled MAIN and AUX on the front
of the EN-1000 chassis, to support the cellular wireless module.
E. Connect and Start the EN-1000
1Connect an Ethernet cable between the computer’s Ethernet port
and the Local Area Network port (the LAN port) on the front of the
EN-1000.
2Connect other cables to the EN-1000 ports as needed for the
EN-1000’s functions in the network.
3Connect the EN-1000’s AC adaptor to the chassis; then plug the
adaptor into an AC wall outlet.
❖The EN-1000 powers up. If the account is active and has a good
cell signal, the SIM will probably be registered within an
hour (usually within 10 minutes). The Cell LED indicates signal
strength and registration status. (For LED patterns, see the Quick
Guide to EN-1000™ LED Codes.)
F. Notes on EN-1000 Factory Defaults
By default, if there is an Ethernet WAN connection, the EN-1000
functions as a failover router for Ethernet WAN to cellular 4G CAT-1 LTE.
If there is no Ethernet WAN cable, the EN-1000 acts as a cellular 4G
CAT-1 LTE broadband router.
The LAN port (IP address 192.168.10.1) is a DHCP server, and the WAN
port is a DHCP client. The cellular wireless module gets its IP address
from the carrier.
If the factory default configuration is sufficient for the EN-1000’s
operation in your network, you may not need to use the remaining
sections of this quick guide for the router to be operational.
Note: If the EN-1000 needs to be set to the factory default
configuration for any reason, the front panel Reset button can be
pushed. The sequence is described on the final page of the EN-1000™
Quick Configuration Guide.
