Configuration to Pre-existing Office Network
This section explains how to configure the HFA3 to communicate via a pre-existing office network
(LAN). To do this, the instrument must be connected to the office network by a standard network
patch cable. Make sure to plug one end of your standard network patch cable into the HFA3
Ethernet port (see Figure 3-5). Be sure to handle the cable connector gen
tly. It is the user’s
responsibility to install the necessary cables.
Configure Networking Settings on the HFA3
1.Start the instrument and log in
as an Administrator user. If the
instrument is already on, you may log in as another user by
selecting Change user from the Close button menu while in the
P
ATIENT screen.
2. Select Setti
ngs > Networking to display the Networking
screen.
3. Ensure that DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is
Enabled to automatically assign an IP address to the instrument.
4. If the network uses static IP add
resses, contact a network
administrator to have the HFA3 added, or set DHCP to Disabled
and fill in the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway fields.
