instructions from that software to allow installation of SITESCAPE.
If successful, the Installation Setup Completed dialog is shown.
Getting Connected
i)
Network with DHCP server
By default, COLDSTORE has DHCP server support disabled.
If DHCP server support on the COLDSTORE is enabled then, after powering up your COLDSTORE, the
COLDSTORE will use the network settings assigned by the DHCP server on your network. Use the front
panel to find out the COLDSTOREs current network settings, as described in section J). Skip step 5 in
part ii) of this section to complete COLDSTORE set-up.
If DHCP on the COLDSTORE has been enabled but no DHCP server is available, use the front panel to
show the COLDSTOREs current network settings, as described in section J), then continue to the next part of
this section.
ii) Network without DHCP server
On networks without a DHCP server, or when DHCP server support is disabled, assigning network
settings suitable for your installation to a COLDSTORE typically requires you to temporarily change your
computer’s network settings. This change ensures that your computer is on the same logical network as
your new COLDSTORE.
Before proceeding, check that the current IP address and other network settings of the COLDSTORE
using the front panel menu, as described in section J).
COLDSTORE 3U devices have two Ethernet connections - labelled ETH1 and ETH2. By default,
connection ETH1 has IP address 10.0.0.140, subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and gateway 10.0.0.1.
This section assumes that the network settings of the COLDSTORE are set to their defaults. If the
network settings differ from the default, you will need to adapt the instructions in this section to suit the
current network settings of the COLDSTORE read from the LCD display.
Steps:
1
Ensure that the Status LED on the front panel of the COLDSTORE is flashing before continuing.
If the Status LED is not flashing, the COLDSTORE is still in the boot-up phase. Please wait until
the Status LED is flashing before proceeding.
2
Disconnect any network lead currently attached to connection ETH1 on the rear panel of the
COLDSTORE.
3
Either attach a standard, CAT5E network cable directly from your computer to the ETH1
connection on the COLDSTORE, or temporarily connect your computer and the ETH1 connection
on the COLDSTORE to a simple, unmanaged network switch.
4
Change your computer’s network settings to IP address 10.0.0.139 and the same subnet mask
and gateway as the COLDSTORE.
If the COLDSTORE is not using the default network settings, then choose an IP address for the
computer that does not clash with the IP address of the COLDSTORE but matches the subnet
and gateway addresses.
5
Using the Windows Start Menu, navigate to All Apps>Veracity. Click SITESCAPE.
If Window User Account Control is enabled, click
Yes
when prompted.
The SITESCAPE splash screen is shown momentarily. The software’s version number is shown on
the splash screen.
