Network Navi

Preparation for Network Navi (Continued)

4: Starting Network Navi

Start Network Navi to set up/operate the recorder using a PC.

The following instructions are for Windows® XP.

1 Launch the internet browser to start using the Network Navi on the PC.

Screen images of Windows® Internet Explorer are used as examples in this user’s manual.

When the “Back” button on the browser is used to return to the previous page, the setting and display may not be set correctly.

2 Enter the address http://RD-XS55, and press the ENTER key of the PC.

For Mac OS X or when access cannot be made using the address with the recorder name, press SETUP on the remote control. Then enter the IP address on the “Network Setting” screen of “Management Settings” for the recorder instead of the recorder name.

(e.g.: http://192.168.1.15/)

When the address is entered, the Main Menu will be displayed. A screen will be displayed for entering “User Name” and “Password” which were established during the network setup of the recorder. Enter the “User Name” and “Password”. If you want to set your favorites or bookmarks in the browser, it should be done at this time.

3-AWhen connecting directly to the PC:

Click the desired feature from the Main Menu.

3-BWhen connecting to the PC with an always-on internet connection: Click “Network Navi Settings” from the Main Menu.

Follow the instructions on the pages that follow to establish the settings.

Notes

For some routers, the assigned IP address may change frequently depending on DHCP.

To check the IP address of the recorder using the router management software, find the assigned IP address that matches the MAC address displayed on the “Address/Proxy” screen of “Network Setting”.

If the “Port number” under “Network Setting” is set at a value other than “80”, enter the “Port number” after the recorder name or IP address. (e.g.: For a port number of 2000, use http://RD-XS55:2000/.)

If the proxy setting is made, accessing may fail.

When the recorder is in operation, you might not be able to make the setting even if you can use the Network Navi.
