ADVANCED OPERATION
CONNECTING EVOS TO A NETWORK
You can log EVOS onto a Windows/SMB network via an
Ethernet cable connection and save captured images
directly to shared folders on the network.
Note: If your network is on a Linux server, it will have to
use Samba in order for EVOS to find it. Contact
your network administrator for help if a physically
connected EVOS cannot find the network.
ITEMS NEEDED FOR ETHERNET CONNECTION
To set up the network connection, you need the following
items (not included):
Ethernet cable
USB-to-Ethernet adaptor
Note: For best results, use one of these compatible
USB-to-Ethernet adapters:
Belkin model F5D5050
Cisco Linksys model USB300M
D-Link model DUB-E100
TRENDnet model TU-ET100C
TRENDnet model TU2-ET100
LOGGING ONTO THE NETWORK
1. Verify the microscope is powered on and the network
cable is plugged into the correct jack and connected
via the adapter to the USB port.
2. Be sure you are logged in under your own EVOS user ID.
The current user ID is displayed above the AMG logo
in the bottom left corner of the screen. See Logging In/
Creating New User Logins (p.13) for more information.
3. Click the Settings button to open the Settings dialog
box, and then select the Network tab.
Note: EVOS will try to connect for about 30 seconds.
If there is a problem with the connection, the
Network page will display “No Items.”
Double-check the physical connections and
click the Refresh Network button . During the
refresh, a progress icon will appear.
Unless there is an issue with the network, or you
are using an incompatible adapter, refreshing
the connection should resolve the problem
within a few moments. Contact your network
administrator for help if the problem persists.
