Login in the Network
The user automatically logs into the network with the registration in the operating system. As a
prerequisite, the user name and the password must be identical under Windows XP and on the network.
Disabling the Autologin Mechanism
Upon delivery, the instrument is configured for automatic login into Windows XP. This mechanism must
be disabled if the instrument is operated in a network, since the default user name ("instrument") and
the password normally are not identical to those of the network account.
To disable the autologin mechanism, proceed as follows:
! Open the XP start menu by means of <CTRL><ESC>.
! Select the menu item "RUN". A dialog box opens.
! Enter the command "D:\USER\NO_AUTOLOGIN.REG" in the dialog box and confirm with
<ENTER>.
The autologin mechanism is disabled. When the instrument is rebooted, a prompt for user name and
password will appear before the instrument firmware is started.
Reenabling the Autologin Mechanism
To enable the autologin mechanism again, proceed as follows:
! Open the XP start menu by means of <CTRL><ESC>.
! Select the menu item "RUN". A dialog box opens.
! Enter the command "D:\USER\AUTOLOGIN.REG" in the dialog box and confirm with <ENTER>.
The autologin mechanism is reenabled and is active when the instrument is rebooted the next time.
Using Network Drives
Mapping a network drive:
! Use the Windows key or the key
combination <CTRL> <ESC> to call the
Windows XP start menu.
! Click "Programs", "Accessories",
"Windows Explorer" one after the other.
! Click the line "My Network Places" in the
overview "Desktop".
An overview of the available network
drives is displayed.
