Note: If several units are connected to the same network with the default static IP address, you may
have to modify the IP addresses of these units to avoid connection problems (not accessing
the right unit). You can use their host names to connect to these units, and then change their IP
addresses.
Removing Modules
CAUTION
Once you have pressed the button, wait until the status of the
module switches to “Safe to Remove” in ToolBox X.
2Turn the two retaining screws counterclockwise until they are loose (do not remove them completely).
Retaining screws
(can be used as handles to
safely pull the module out)

From ToolBox X, click the button.
Note: The button is not available for the RTUe-9110 external switches because they do not
support ejection. If you need to remove such a switch from the system, ensure that no test is
underway, and then simply disconnect the optical fibers and the USB cable.
Understanding the Instrument Statuses
Ready
The module or external switch is available for tests.
In use
The module or external switch is currently in use.
Ejecting
The module is being prepared for safe removal from the unit.
Safe to remove
The module can now be safely removed from the unit.
Error
The module or external switch cannot be used at this time because it had to protect itself from a critical problem.
Connecting to Your Unit
1Connect a network cable between the front or rear management port of the unit ( ) and an
Ethernet port of a computer (laptop) on which AMT Remote Access is installed
(http://www.exfo.com/software/exfo-apps > PC Software).
From AMT Remote Access, enter the connection information:
The default static IP address is: 192.168.200.1. The IP address
is also visible from the built-in display on the front of the unit.
The default user name is: admin.
The default password is: !Exfo123.
Note: You may have to modify the IP address of the computer so that
the computer and unit can “see” each other. Both IP addresses
must be within the same range of addresses
(ex.: 192.168.200.20).
2
Click to have access to
Windows, the unit and the
applications.
3Hold the module by its sides or by the retaining screws (NOT by the connectors) and pull it out.
