Configuration to a Pre-existing Office Network
This section explains how to configure the Matrix 800 to communicate via your pre-existing
office network (a local area network or LAN). To do this, the Matrix must be connected to
the office network by a standard network patch cable. It is the user’s responsibility to
install the necessary cables. Configuration topics, in order, are:
• Install the Network Cable , page 8-4
• Create a Shared Folder on Network File Server , page 8-4
• Configure Network Settings on the Matrix , page 8-13
• Add Network Shared Folders , page 8-14
• Selecting a Subfolder in a Network Share , page 8-17
Install the Network Cable
Plug one end of a standard network patch cable into the Matrix Ethernet port (see on
page
1-7 ). Plug the other end of the cable into the 10/100 network switch. This switch
controls the bandwidth in and out of Matrix. Connect another standard network patch
cable between the switch and the office network outlet.
Create a Shared Folder on Network File Server
To save your Matrix data, a shared folder needs to be created on the network file server, or on
a computer on the local network. For a Windows XP computer, see
Create a shared folder
on a Windows XP computer below. For a Windows Vista or Windows 7 computer, see
Create a shared folder on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 computer on page
8-9 .
Create a shared folder on a Windows XP computer

created in any available path on the hard disk drive. In the example below, the new
folder was created by right-clicking on the Windows desktop, and then selecting
New > Folder (
