Setting Up the System
This chapter tells you how to set up the system for use.
3.1
System Requirements
To use the system, you need:
l
A 10Base-T, 10/100Base -TX, or 100Base-TX TCP/IP-based LAN
l
A computer connected to the network that uses a Web browser (Netscape Navigator or
Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 4.0 or later)
l
Network parameters including IP address for the system, the subnet mask of your network,
and a gateway/router address (if communicating with other networks)
l
Third-party software applications (if not supplied or pre- installed)
3.2
Placing the System
You can either place the system on a flat surface – a desk or shelf, for example – or install it in a
standard 19-inch equipment rack.
To place the system on a flat surface, attach the rubber feet to the corners in the bottom of the case.
If you will be using the system in an equipment rack, you need to purchase a slide rackmount kit.
(Please contact your dealer.)
CAUTION:
Before installing the system in an equipment rack, make sure that:
l
The ambient temperature around the system (which may be higher than the room
temperature) is within the limits specified in section 1.3.
l
There is sufficient airflow around the unit.
l
Electrical circuits are not overloaded.
