Setting the IP address of the ChemWeb Server
A fixed IP address and network mask must always be assigned. Other settings should not be changed.
Confirm and store by clicking “OK” twice.
With some Windows configurations, a restart may now be necessary.
Special features of the direct network connection with Windows 95 / 98 / ME
With these Windows versions, a network connection is set up automatically if a network board is identified in the laptop computer/PC. It is, however, possible that the wrong network protocol is installed in the network settings! The “TCP/IP” protocol must be installed in the network settings! All other protocols and network components can be deleted except for the network board.
Switched connection via modem
To set up a connection to the ChemWeb Server via the integrated modem, the following data are required:
-modem type (analog / ISDN)
-telephone number of the ChemWeb Server
-
-access code (login / password)
Take into account that, with one modem, data connections can only be established to certain other types of modems:
| Analog modem | ISDN modem |
Analog modem | r | |
ISDN modem | r |
As an example, the setup of a switched connection using a WindowsXP system is shown below. With other Windows versions, the procedure is similar (possibly the remote data transmission network must be reinstalled). See your IT Department if needed. The modem or the ISDN card must have already been installed correctly. To set up the connection, the menu item “Create a new connection” in the left window under “Control Panel” ==> “Network and Internet Connections” ==> “Network Connections” must be selected.
