NT, see “Through the Management Card Wizard” on

 

this page.

 

• If you are not using a Windows-based platform, or if

 

you require direct serial configuration, see “Serially

 

through the Control Console” on page 12.

 

• If you are a network administrator using a computer

 

connected to the local subnet, see “Over the Network by

Through the Management Card Wizard. The

 

Environmental Monitoring Unit contains a management card

 

that provides the network interface. On a Windows 95,

 

Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0 workstation, the

 

Management Card Wizard provides a quick way to configure

 

all management card settings, including TCP/IP settings. To

 

access the Management Card Wizard, run the program

 

setup.exe on the CD-ROM supplied with the unit, and follow

 

the on-screen instructions.
