Chapter 4: Configuring the Library
Configuring Network Settings
Quantum Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User’s Guide 41
Note: Changing the network settings may interrupt the library
connection and library communication. Your current browser
session may become invalid. If this happens, you must close
your browser and then restart it to reconnect to the library with
your new configuration settings.
Note: Make sure that the library is connected to the network before
modifying network settings. If the Ethernet cable is not
installed properly, you cannot configure the network settings.
Install one end of the Ethernet cable in the left-most Ethernet
port of the system control board (SCB) located on the back of
the library (see
Figure 4 or Figure 5 on page 11). Make sure the
other end of the Ethernet cable is installed in the appropriate
LAN port on your LAN.
You can configure the following network settings:
• Library Host Name
• DHCP
• IP Addresses
• Default Gateway, Subnet Mask, Network Prefix, and DNS Addresses
Some settings are only available on the Web client; others are only
available on the operator panel, as described below.
Library Host Name The host name is the network name you want to assign to the library.
The host name is limited to 12 lowercase alphanumeric characters and
dashes (-).
You can view, but not modify, the host name on the operator panel. To
modify the host name, you must use the Web client.

1 Select Setup > Network Management > Network.
