Pansat 2700 Iks set up

[keegster17]

guys I want to possibley run my old Pansat 2700 for IKS. I don't need the info to connect, I am looking for physical part of setting up. the is will go in the basement. My computer on one side and tv at other end, about 25 feet apart. I don't want to buy a X-fta, just want to connect direct to computer, how can I set this up? Not sure If I will be lucky enough to find a data cable that long, so it connect from Pansat 2700 to computer. I thin there are cat5 cables with adapters for the data cable? can't recall. And what data cable for Pansat 2700 straight thru or null?

You can use a couple of adapters like the ones below. Bought two myself local for a little less than $5.00. Used them with a 50' cat5 cable. I pined the adapter at the pc straight and the one at the stb as twisted or pin 2 and 3 crossed. Seem to work good for the short time I messed around with it.

[keegster17]

Is there a specific name for these adapters? And are you saying you twisted the pins yourself? or can I buy them like that, so virtually your saying one is different than the other?

[abouttosnap]

DB9 Female to RJ45 Female Adapter (Universal Wiring). You will need to do the pin out yourself. One side of the DB9 end is numbered. Like the first illustration below on the Db9 side one adapter would be straight and the other would have pin 2 and 3 crossed. Here is the pin out for the ones I bought. Not sure if they all have the same color code:

Pin Color
1 Blue
2 Orange
3 Black
4 Red
5 Green
6 Yellow
7 Brown
8 White

The second pic you may can see the pins a little better.

so will i need two data cables? i am a little confused on the order of operation,connecting everything.

hi keegster17,i have the 2500A connect just like abouttosnap show´s on post 4 whit 75 feet´s of cat cable and the two end connectors i got from my local RC ,and it works perfect.

[keegster17]

so at the computers end it will connect via cat5 or via data cable, this is where i am getting confused. that's why I am asking if I nee two data cables.

[spyeyes]

Hmmm well it´s cable but the one i have it´s the same wiring has the cat5 only don´t have the ends,but i guess you can use any wiring has long it has 3 wires,but this is just a guess,,maybe some one else can share lil bit more info on this..

[keegster17]

sorry i think i confused myself. two connectors and cat5 cable only. I was thinking I need my data cable (null cable). one problem is now i need a gender changer, f me, i was going to buy one too. now got to go back out later today. thought I had everything. guys how do I enter info into notpad for NFPS, in the Rs-sssp-client?

[spyeyes]

you enter the info in the rq-sssp-client conf file.

[keegster17]

can someone provide a example how to and what to enter in the rq-sssp-client conf file? It would help. I tried but did not add port, however I am sure there is a certain way of typing it out and I want to ensure I get it right.


card_server_url_1=newcamd://37.46.112.201:password/6103 4034 4540 6970 9871 2341 xxxx

above is what i did for NFPS, I think I need to add port number?

[dishuser]

put port after ip

[keegster17]

between ip and port number do I add a "/" or ":"?

[DualTest]

It would look like this:

card_server_url_1=newcamd://username:password@serveraddress:port/deskey

[spyeyes]

card_server_url_1=newcamd://user name: password@ip number: port/012345678901234567890

[keegster17]

I did this for NFPS

37.46.112.201:10510:password/deskey

what is the username?

I have even bigger problem. I noticed my PC does not have a DB9 port, so now what? I went to all this trouble, and bought the DB9 Female to RJ45 Female Adapters, then got a gender changer, only to find out my Pc have no DB9 port, am I pickled? man am I p-ssed.

[keegster17]
