PC, Mac, and Power PC Initial Setup
Though each hardware platform, PC, Mac, and Power PC
(collectively referred to here as PC), and each software
application has unique configuration and operational
requirements, several Ethernet connection and functionality
concepts are constants. This section outlines typical steps
required to perform various functions and verify them. See your
hardware and software documentation for specific information
regarding your installation.
STEP 1:
Add Diskus to the PC’s host file
Each PC handles the host file differently. You must
add the Diskus IP address and Diskus host name into
the PC’s host table.
Note that the name entered into the hosts file is the
name that the network recognizes. You can enter a
different name in Diskus’ Ethernet menu, but this
could lead to confusion.
STEP 2:
Set up the Diskus IP address
The factory-assigned IP address is 192.92.109.57. To
assign a new IP address, open the Ethernet menu and
click the IP parameter setting to open a Numeric
window. Enter the same IP address as you entered in
the PC’s hosts file. Click Enter to set the new address.
STEP 3:
Enter a new host name for Diskus
Click on the Name parameter setting in the Ethernet
menu to open an Alphanumeric window. Enter a new
name and click on the OK button. This name may be
different from the one entered into the PC’s hosts file,
but this may lead to confusion. The name "diskus" is
used in these examples.
