Although the following options are accessible in all MAX 5000XL instruments, the optional Web Server feature must be purchased in order to access the instrument over your network.
NAME and PASSWORD
The NAME and PASSWORD can be used to restrict access to the instrument over the intranet. When using IE enter NAME for the User name and enter PASSWORD for the Password to gain access to the instrument.
OBTAIN IP ADDRESS
This can be set to Automatic, Manual, or Ethernet Off.
∙Automatic - Sets everything automatically. A DHCP server is required to obtain the IP address. Because the IP address is not known until the DHCP server assigns it, intranet users will have to be given the IP address whenever the instrument powers up, which is undesirable. Manual mode is typically used because the IP address is fixed. Automatic mode is useful to see if the Web Server works, and then the user should switch to manual mode.
∙Manual – Requires the manual entry of IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway. Consult with your IS department for the correct settings.
WARNING: DO NOT SET THE IP ADDRESS TO THE SERVER OR GATEWAY IP ADDRESS. Doing so can cause the network to crash.
∙Ethernet Off – Disables the Ethernet port.
MAC ADDRESS
The MAC address is factory set and is unique to every Internet device. It may be helpful to your Information Services (IS) department.
STATUS
This displays the Ethernet status. If everything is setup correctly, then the Status should turn to “Initialized” shortly after power up. Otherwise, an error will be reported.
