Network Setting by Using an HTTP Browser

Overview

Connecting the monitor to a network allows for monitor control from a computer via the network.

To perform the monitor control from a web browser, you must have an exclusive application installed on your computer.

The IP address and subnet mask of the monitor can be set on the Network Setting screen of the web browser by using an HTTP server function. Please be sure to use ÒMicrosoft Internet Explorer 6.0Ó or a higher version for the web browser.

(This device uses ÒJavaScriptÓ and ÒCookiesÓ and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information provided in your software.)

Access is gained to the HTTP server function by starting the Web browser on the computer via the network connected to the monitor and entering the following URL.

Network Setting

http://<the MonitorÕs IP address>/index.html

TIP: The default IP address is Ò192.168.0.10Ó.

NOTE: If the MONITOR NETWORK SETTINGS screen does not appear in the web browser, press the Ctrl+F5 keys to refresh your web browser (or clear the cache).

The display or buttonÕs response can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the settings of your network.

Should this happen, consult your network administrator.

The LCD monitor may not respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and repeat.

If you still canÕt get a response, turn off and back on the monitor.
