Once complete, an additional file is added to the disk named “grade” and files are moved to the selected folder for easy access on an NLE system.

Do not delete the file named “grade” from the disk if you intend to use the disk on FireStore again.

Connecting the FS-2/2E to a Network

You can connect the FS-2/2E to a network using the 10/100 Base T Ethernet port on the rear panel. Do this as follows:

STEP 3: Navigate to the FS-2/2E NETWORK menu (SETUP>NETWORK SETUP). Once in the menu, open the IP SETTINGS sub menu.

STEP 4: Select either DHCP (network supplies the IP address) or CUSTOM IP (you enter the IP address, Sub Net Mask and Gateway). Exit once complete.

STEP 5: If your network requires a user name or password, navigate to USER/ PASSWORD and enter both.

STEP 6: Exit the NETWORK SETTINGS menu and the FS-2/2E attempts to log onto the network.

Make sure the services you intend to use are enabled. These are enabled using
