----- Quick Start Guide
For this Quick Start Guide, we offer three different easy step-by-step ways, letting you
setup this unit very quickly.
The First Way : If you don’t have DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol)
Step 1. Connect the CAT-5 cable to the LAN port on the rear panel of NewStar Digital
KVM via IP. And, connects the opposite end of the CAT-5 cable to the hub.
Step 2. Set the IP address of a computer connected on the same network as NewStar
Digital KVM via IP to a similar unused address like 192.168.1.124 and the subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0.
a. Right click on "My Network Places", and select "Properties". You will get the
following screen:

4
b. Right click on "Local Area Connection", and select "Properties" .
c. Double click on "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)".

5
d. Click “Advanced…” , then click “Add…” to add up the IP address of
“192.168.1.124”, and the Subnet mask of “255.255.255.0”.
Step 3. From that computer, open a web browser and go to https://192.168.1.123. Login
using "admin" for both username and password.
Step 4. Click on the Admin/Setup button then Network configuration (IP address,
netmask, gateway). From here you can set the IP address as needed.
The Second Way: If you have DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
Step 1. Please have your MAC address. You can find it on a white sticker on the bottom of
the NewStar Digital KVM via IP. Here is an example, 00-0E-C5-00-08-1A.
Step 2. Power on the NewStar Digital KVM via IP and connected to the network via LAN
port on the rear panel. The DHCP will automatically assign an IP address for the
NewStar Digital KVM via IP.
Step 3. Access the DHCP log from your file server. A simple DHCP log looks similar to the
following:

6
Step 4. From the above DHCP log, you can easily find the DHCP assigned an IP to the
NewStar Digital KVM via IP, 192.168.22.4. Once you have located this IP
address, do NOT power off the NewStar Digital KVM via IP or your DHCP server
since it might lease a different IP address.
Step 5. Simply open a web browser and type https://192.168.22.4 to access your NewStar
Digital KVM via IP. Login using “admin” for both username and password.
The Third Way: Using the HyperTerminal via Serial Port
Step 1. Connect the DB9 RS-232 null modem serial cable (optional) to the serial port on
the rear panel of NewStar Digital KVM via IP. And, connects the opposite end of
the cable to the serial port (COM1, COM2…) of your computer.
Step 2. From your computer, select “HyperTerminal” as following.

7
Step 3. If you never setup your HyperTerminal before, it will ask you to input your phone
area code, please feel free to do so, and then click “OK”, you will get the following
screen. Please type any name you prefer, for example, “abc”.
Step 4. Choose the proper serial port you connect.

8
Step 5. Change “Bits per second” to 115200.
Step 6. Press “Enter”, you will get the following screen.
Step 7. Follow the instruction on the screen. For example, simply type “I” for setting your IP,
type “M” for changing the machine name, and so on. Here is a reminder for you,
please type “W” after you made any change.
