Using the Setup Wizard

The Setup Wizard simplifies the process of configuring the library. When you first power on the library, the front panel displays the Setup Wizard. As you work through the Setup Wizard screens, follow the on-screen instructions.

The recommended procedure for using the Setup Wizard for the initial configuration is as follows:

1.Turn on the library and begin the Setup Wizard on the front panel. Be sure to configure network settings.

2.When the Setup Wizard screen text prompts you to choose Local or Remote, you must choose to complete the wizard either locally on the front panel interface or remotely on the remote management interface.

3.If you choose to complete the wizard remotely, you must log in to the remote management interface. Use the default Administrator account. The default User Name is Administrator, and the default password field is blank.

4.Complete the Setup Wizard.

Details on using the Setup Wizard include:

You may choose to use the default settings that the Setup Wizard suggests, but you must confirm the proposed settings and complete the Setup Wizard before you can begin using the library.

If you choose to complete the Setup Wizard remotely, the FPI wizard automatically displays the Network settings you need to access the RMI.

If you run the Setup Wizard from the FPI and you do not complete all the Setup Wizard screens, the library will save whatever modifications (if any) you have made. However if you run the Setup Wizard from the RMI, you need to confirm that you want to save the setup.

You do not need to log in to the library from the FPI when the Setup Wizard appears on the front panel the first time the library is powered on.

When you power-on your library for the first time, you can only configure network settings on the front panel, and you cannot log in to the library from the remote management interface until you have configured network settings.

You can always return to the Setup Wizard whenever you are logged in as Administrator to either the front panel or the remote management interface.

Note

The setup wizard may need to reboot your library one or more times during setup

Setup Wizard Tasks
