Logging on from the Library Management Console (LMC) using a web browser
The LMC Java applet lets you access all features of the LMC from a host computer using a standard
web browser. To use the LMC applet, the host computer must have network access to the library,
and you must know the IP address or hostname of the library.
NOTE:
If you do not know the IP address of the library, log on to the library using the Operator
Control Panel (OCP), click Setup
→Network Configuration, then write down the value that displays
in the IP Address field.

requirements:
•
Web Browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher, Mozilla Firefox 3.0 or higher
•
Java Plug-in - Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.6 update 24 or higher

Accessing the LMC applet
After verifying that the host computer meets the software requirements and has network access to
the library, access the LMC and log on.
To access the LMC:
1.
On the host computer, use the web browser to access the IP address of the library.
The first time you access the LMC, the LMC applet is downloaded to the host computer.
Downloading the applet can take several minutes depending on the speed of the network.
Once the applet is downloaded, it is stored on the host computer and does not need to be
downloaded again.
2.
If a security warning appears asking if you are sure you want to run the applet, click Run or
Yes.
The ESL G3 Logon dialog box appears.
3.
In the Name text box, type the name of the user or administrator account with which you want
to log on. If you want to log on with the default administrator account, type admin.
NOTE:
•
User names and passwords are case-sensitive.
•
Only one administrator at any given time can be logged on to the library.
•
If you want to log on using the default administrator account (admin), and you do not
remember the password, contact technical support to reset the password.
