device is not already in use.
Either the BiAdmin program (see Chapter 8) or SETBOX can be used for
configuration. When SETBOX is run, its screen will look like the following.
Figure 6 SetBox
Set Device sets the data entered. You also have the option of saving the IP Address
to a file, so that when the software is installed on other workstations, users will not
have to re-enter the IP Address. This option will only work if you have copied all the
setup files to a floppy disk, and are running SETBOX from the floppy.
Reset Value will set all values back to zeros.
