dialog, select

Yes

To All

When the extraction process concludes, select

Finish

Close all open windows for the CF drive.

Use the

Safely Remove Hardware

icon in the tool tray to eject

(unmount) the CF card from the host computer.

10. Remove the CF card from the card reader.
11. Re-install the CF card in the Model 430 - ensure the card is seated

properly.

12. Re-install the cover on the Model 430 using the previously

removed screws.

Note

The Model 430 and the host computer must share the same network

address scheme and be attached to the same physical network in the

following process.

13. Verify that the web interface is functioning correctly as follows:

a. Connect the Model 430 to the host computer using one of the following

two methods:

(1.) Via Ethernet cable to the same physical network

as the

host computer

(2.) Via “crossover” or “null modem” Ethernet cable direct-

ly to the host computer’s Ethernet port.

b. Plug in and power up the Model 430.

c. As the Model 430 boots up, watch the front display and verify that it

shows Firmware Version: 1.62

(or other version being upgraded to).

d. Press

ENTER

at the Turn on power supply prompt.

e. Using the Model 430 menu system, Menu > Net Settings > IP Address

(Present), determine the IP Address of the Model 430.

f. Open a web browser on the host computer and type the IP address

of the

Model 430 into the address bar.

1. Display time may vary depending on network speed - refer to

section 5.2.19 on page 148.
