5. Set the Legend network settings. On the Legend LCD panel select Options –
Networking. After setting the Network settings,
scroll to options – Save Settings.
Example:
6. “Ping” the laser. This is an easy method of determining if the computer and
the laser are “talking” to each other. Go to Start – Run – type cmd, then click
OK. This will take you to a DOS command prompt. Type “ping 192.168.X.X”
(do not include the quotes - the IP Address after “ping” must be the same as the
IP Address that you have entered in the Legend). If you receive a “Request
Timed Out”, the laser and the computer are not “talking”. If you receive a
“Reply from 192.168.X.X” your computer is talking to your Legend.
7. Note – The following is a helpful hint for users setting up their network
connections for the first time.
8. The last octet (the number in the square and circles above) in the TCP/IP
Address will always be different than the IP Addresses assigned to the Print
Driver and the Legend network settings.
9. Stated another way – The IP address for the Print driver and the Legend settings
must be the same. These two must differ from the TCP/IP address.
10. In addition to your computer and laser settings, these procedures illustrate the
cables and other hardware that may be required for common network setups.
11. Crossover cable
12. Standard CAT5 cable
