TheIPaddressofthelibrarydisplaysintheupperrightcornerofthetouch
screenoperatorpanel(seeFigure55onpage100).Ifthelibrarydoesnot
haveanIPaddressconfiguredorifitisnotconnectedtoanEthernet
network,0.0.0.0displaysinthislocation.
Note: IfyouareaccessingthelibraryremotelythroughtheBlueScale
webinterface,thelibraryname,ifconfigured,displaysinstead
oftheIPaddress.Ifthelibrarynameisnotconfigured,theupper
rightcornerofthescreenisblank.
Using DHCP Addressing Bydefault,theIPaddressfortheEthernetporton
theLCMissetautomaticallyusingtheDynamicHostConfiguration
Protocol(DHCP).
Notes:  IfyouselectDHCPaddressing,theLCMmustbeconnected
toanEthernetnetworkthathasaDHCPservertoobtainan
IPaddress.
 DonotselectDHCPaddressingifyournetworkdoesnot
haveaDHCPserver.
Using Static IP Addressing IfyournetworkdoesnotuseDHCP,orifyou
simplywantthelibrarytohaveafixedIPaddress,youcanconfigurea
static(fixed)IPaddressasdescribedinthissection.UsingastaticIP
addressensuresthatyoualwaysknowtheIPaddressforthelibraryandis
highlyrecommended,especiallyifyouplantomanagethelibrary
remotelyusingtheBlueScalewebinterface.
Prepare the Library
Beforeconfiguringthenetworksettings,makesurethatyouaddressthe
followingrequirements:
 ThelibraryisconnectedtoanactivelinkontheEthernetnetwork.
 AuniqueIPaddressisavailableonthenetworkifyouplantousea
staticIPaddress.Thisaddresscannotbeinusebyanotherdevice.
 TheDHCPserverisconfiguredonthenetworkifyouplantouse
DHCPaddressing.
Important
If you want to change the network settings of the library, make sure that the library
is connected to the network before you power on the library.
