Local network
settings

You may connect your multifunction terminal to an
Ethernet or a wireless network.
However, practical knowledge of your computer

Selecting the type of your local
network

This parameter allows you to configure your terminal
accordingly to the type of network you will install it in.

Ethernet network settings
(Model B2540)

Automatic configuration

We recommend that you carry out a manual configuration
of your terminal. The automatic configuration of the local
network settings may be considered, if your local network
features a DHCP or BOOTP server that can dynamically
assign addresses to the peripheral devices present on the
LAN.

To automatically configure the local network settings:

271 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/IP CONFIG.

1 Choose Automatic and press OK to confirm. The

terminal scans the local network for a DHCP or
BOOTP server that can assign it its settings
dynamically (the message Self-conf is displayed).

2 Once the message Self-conf has disappeared,

check for the IP Address, Sub-network mask and
Gateway address. If these are missing, you should
carry out a manual configuration (see below).

Manual configuration

To configure your terminal manually, you should obtain
the usual information used to set a peripheral device (IP
address, sub-network mask, network and gateway
address).

To configure the local network setting manually:

271 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/IP CONFIG.

1 Choose Manual and press OK to confirm.

IP address

272 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/ADRESSE IP

1 Enter the IP address of your terminal and press OK

to confirm.

Sub-network mask

273 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/MSK SS RES.

1 Enter the sub-network mask of your terminal and

press OK to confirm.

Gateway address

274 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/PASSERELLE

1 Enter the IP address of the network gateway and

press OK to confirm.

IEEE Address (or Ethernet address) or MAC
address

275 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/IEEE ADDRESS

The Ethernet card of your terminal already has an
unmodifiable, yet consultable, IEEE address.

NetBIOS names

These names, which can be used with the network
options, are used to identify your terminal machine from a
PC connected to a local network (for instance with the
name "IMP-NETWORK-1").

276 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 1

277 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 2

1 Enter the selected name (15 characters max) and

press OK to confirm.

Serveurs de nom

The WINS1 and WINS2 servers, used with the network
options, allow access to terminals on other sub-networks
by means of their NetBIOS name.

278 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 1

279 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 1

1 Enter the IP address of each server, then validate

with OK.

If the terminal is set up in Automatic
configuration mode (menu 271), these
addresses can be filled in automatically by
certain DHCP servers.
