Chapter 4: Operation
Remote Management Unit (RMU)
Overview
Many of the same operations performed locally from the operator control panel (OCP) can also be
performed remotely using the network connected Remote Management Unit (RMU).
The RMU lets you monitor and control the library from any computer connected to your network
or
through the World Wide Web (WWW). The RMU hosts a dedicated, protected Internet site that
displays a graphical representation of the library.
After establishing a network connection to the libr
ary, open any HTML browser and enter the IP
address of the library. To allow access from the RMU, you must first set the desired static IP address
at the OCP or configure to use DHCP.
