3.7 Access to the network resources
The Panel PC allows you to access shared resources in a Microsoft
network like drives and printer. Here you may assign existing public
directories or printer in the network to local directories or printer in the
Panel PC.
Condition for this is that you are logged in to the network with your
user name and password. The assignment of a network resource is
performed in the Panel PC via the command console "Command
Prompt". Start the command console with
‘START
è
Programs
è
Command Prompt’
.
The access to the network resource is performed with the commands
Net view
and
Net use
.
Shared resources of a network PC can be listed by the command: \>
net view PC-Name
For example
net view testserver
lists all shared resources of
the network PC "test server". To test the physical connection a PING
to the IP address of the network PC may be executed if there are
problems while contacting the network PC.
The connection of a local name at the Panel PC with a shared drive
of the network PC happens with the following approach:
1.
Enter the following in the command prompt: \>
net use
local_name \\network drive /user:User name
2.
Enter
user name, password
and where app.
user group
.
After successful login the following message appears:
‘Successfully
mapped to network name’
.
The connected network drive is then available on the Panel PC with
the
local name
via
My Device
at
Network
.
Local_Name:
data
, network drive:
testserver\archive
, User-
name:
guest
Input:
\> net use data \\testserver\archiv /
user:guest
. The connected network drive is then available via \net-
work\data at the Panel PC.
The listing command for all network connections of your Panel PC is
\>
net use
.
You may terminate already assigned network resources via:
\>
net use local_name /d
Example: \>
net use data /d
deletes the network connection to
the drive "archive" of "test server".
