1.5 AP discovering with Bonjour Services
You still got problems to find your AP in your network? There's another workaround: You can use
Apple's "Bonjour Print Services".
Download and install “Bonjour Print Services“ for Windows (pre-installed under OSX):
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL999
Note: After installation there’s no reboot required.
If the access point is connected directly to the system where the “Bonjour Service” is installed
(or on a network with running “Bonjour Service”) you can find the access point by typing the
following in the browser of your choice:
http://ap-<ID>.local:8080 (e.g. http://ap-12724.local:8080)
Note: You can reach older versions of the AP with
http://imagotag-ap.local:8080 (custom
hostnames are only available on newer versions of the access point)
1.6 What can I do if the Status LED of the AP-2010 access point doesn’t
turn blue?
l Check the AP status
l Check AP configuration
o
No Channel set
l Check network reachability of AP
l AP registered to Server?
l Reboot AP
1.7 Labels don’t come online
After the registration it could last a certain time until all registered labels are joined to the
network (up to two hours, depending on number of access points and the channels used.
l Up to 30 minutes with channels 3, 5, 8, 9 and 10
l Up to 2 hours with channels 0, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 7
Warning: A label must not be registered to multiple ESL server installations at the same time. It
will only connect to one of this installations.
