Chapter3 Basic Installation

3.1 Connecting the Hardware

1. Make sure that your USB devices are switched off and that the MFP server’s

Power Adapter is disconnected.

2. Connect the USB devices to the USB ports using the USB cables.

3. Connect the MFP server to the network using a twisted pair category 5 cable,

10baseT or 100baseTX.

4. Turn on the USB devices and make sure it is ready for use.

5. Connect the Power Adapter to the server. The power indicator will light up and

USB1 and USB2 indicators will flash in turn. When the Link indicator lights up,

the server is correctly connected to the network. When USB1 and USB2

indicators do not flash, the server starts to work normally.

6. If you connected USB HP printers to server, please press the Init button for 3

seconds on the server once to print a page of server configuration report.

3.2 Wireless connection

This section only applies to DN-13015.

3.2.1 Preliminary

 Before you can access wireless network, wireless parameters should be set

correctly. You have to setup the first wireless parameter set through LAN

(wired) connection.

 Wireless access can be set as 1. Infrastructure (station) mode, which need an

access point to route network messages, or 2. Ad-hoc mode, which connect

nearby wireless PC/devices with the same SSID (Service Set ID).

 Wireless access can be secured by WEP64, WEP128, or WPA-PSK/TKIP.

 In infrastructure mode, if network administrator wants to change any security

related parameters, DN-13015 should be changed first, and then access

point. If parameters mismatch causes wireless access is not allowed, you

have to modify those parameters through LAN connection.

 In infrastructure mode, the maximal transfer rate is 54 MBits depending on

access point’s capability. In ad-hoc mode, only 802.11b (the maximal

transfer rate is 11 MBits) is allowed by specification.

3.2.2 Ethernet Address

1. Install MFP Server Control Center. MFP Server Control Center is available in the

DN-13015 USB MFP Server Product CD.

2. Start MFP Server Control Center and Auto-searching MFP server window will

appear.
