2 Installing and Running the DeviceInstaller™ Configuration
Software
To configure your Kramer Machine via the Ethernet, install the
DeviceInstaller™ configuration software and configure your Ethernet Port,
and then install the COM Port Redirector to control the Kramer Machine.
To configure the Ethernet Port you must install and run the
DeviceInstaller™ configuration software.
It is important to consider the following points before logging into and
configuring the Ethernet Port:
• The Kramer Machine IP address must be configured before a network
connection is available (if you encounter problems, see
Section
1.1 )
• Only one person at a time may be logged into the network port. This
eliminates the possibility of several people simultaneously attempting
to configure the Device Server
• Network port logins can be disabled. The system manager will not be
able to access the unit. This port can also be password protected
