==== Connecting the TrutzBox®====

Before initial operation of the TrutzBox® observe the instructions in the section "Safety and Operation“.

Connect the TrutzBox® as follows:

[[File:20160911 TrutzBox anschließen pur.PNG|700px|link=]]

* Connect the RJ45 network cable to a network socket of the Internet router (1) and to the "Ext" connector on the back of the TrutzBox® (2).

* Connect the power supply unit to the "12V DC" connection of the TrutzBox® (3) and to the 100-240V power supply (4). Only use the supplied power supply unit for connection to the power supply.

After approx. 1 minute the TrutzBox beeps and after approx. 3-4 minutes the left LED on its front side starts to flash, and after another approx. 5-6 minutes (after a total of approx. 9-10 minutes) the TrutzBox is ready for operation.

If required, the WLAN options available in the Comidio Shop (www.comidio.de/shop) can be retrofitted at any time.

<tr>

'''Important:'''

*'''To enable the TrutzBox® Mail server to exchange e-mails at any time, the TrutzBox® must always be switched on'''

*'''Make sure that the Internet router assigns the same IP address to the TrutzBox® (see example FRITZ!Box = Check the box "Always assign the same IPv4 address to this network device").'''

[[File:20170131 FritzBox immer gleiche IP Adresse ur.PNG|700px|link=]]

*'''tart up the TrutzBox® at the beginning in proxy mode (see chapter "Using the TrutzBox® -> for users). When you have experience with TrutzBox® , you can gradually connect devices without proxy directly to TrutzBox® (transparent mode).'''

===TrutzBox® Set up===

To set up your Trutzbox, you can do this with any browser. The process is a little different, depending on which browser is used. There are two groups:

* Mozila Firefox (with own certificate management) and

* Internet Explorer or Google Chrome (with shared certificate management in the operating system).

The following example shows the processes for both types; starting with Mozilla Firefox.

After connecting the TrutzBox® according to chapter "Connecting the TrutzBox®" it starts up. This can take 9-10 minutes.

Then connect your computer's browser to the TrutzBox® by entering"<nowiki>http://trutzbox</nowiki>" in the browser's address bar..

It is recommended to open 2 browser windows, so that you can work e.g. in the left window on the TrutzBox® user interface and directly next to it, e.g. in the right window, you can access the manual or the browser administration.

This is shown below:

* Part I is the same for all browser types,

* Part II distinguishes between Firefox (2a) and "Non-Firefox" (2b) and

* Part III is identical again.

====Part I: Preparation of the setup ====

[[File:20151015-Ersteinrichtung-0003.png|700px|link=]]

After you open a browser window, enter <Ctrl><N> on the keyboard:

Hold down key <Ctrl> (2a) and additionally press key "n" (2b).

This opens a second browser window.

[[#top|-> Table of Contents (of this manual)]]

[[File:20151015-Ersteinrichtung-0004.png|700px|link=]]

The second window (1) is now above the first window. Click with the left mouse button on the upper frame of the browser window and move the second window (with pressed left mouse button) to the right, next to the first window.

[[#top|-> Table of Contents (of this manual)]]

[[File:20151015-Ersteinrichtung-0008.png|700px|link=]]

Enter in the left window (2) <nowiki>"http://trutzbox"</nowiki>.
