Part of the configuration process involves rebooting

monitored as shown in Fig. CM-13. After the reboot
process ends successfully, the Client Manager will
issue a reset command to the EC that will cause the
new configuration to be loaded and return to the

click 

Select.

Client Manager Detail and Manual
Configuration

Begin at the Windows Start menu and choose

Programs. You should see a folder called YDI. Select
this folder and click on Client Manager.

The first screen to appear is the 

Select EC

 screen

shown in Fig. CM-1.

This screen lists information about any devices

associated in your network. If there are no devices
listed in the table, then you are not connected.
Recheck all connections and if you connect to a
router, switch or hub, make sure you have followed the
directions in #5 above.

Once you see the EC listed in the table, click on

the device to configure.  Press the Select button and
you will be taken to the 

General Information

 window for

the EC.

The window will automatically update as an EC is

discovered. If an EC has been disconnected, the
status of the EC will change to “Offline.” If any user is
logged in to an EC with the Client Manager, the status
will change to “Busy” and no other user will be given
access to that EC. Once the logged in user logs out,
the status will then reflect whether it is online or offline.
If you click the Advanced button, the screen shown in
the Fig. CM-14 appears and the Advanced button
toggles to Simple.
