58 Configuring the Library
Configuring Barcode Scan
This feature allows the operator to enable or disable the barcode scanner from the front panel or the
remote management interface. The default setting for the library is “barcode scanner enabled”. If
disabled, the library will locate cartridges using the robotics.
The Barcode Scan is configured with the Setup Wizard. After the initial setup of your library you can
later access the Barcode Scan configuration screens directly:
• From the RMI, select Setup > Library
• From the FPI, select Menu > Setup > Library
Configuring Audible Alarm
The library is equipped with an audible alarm that is activated upon certain error conditions. The alarm
can either be enabled/disabled from the front panel or from the remote management interface. The
default for the library is audible alarm disabled.
The Audible Alarm is configured with the Setup Wizard. After the initial setup of your library you can
later access the Audible Alarm configuration screens directly:
• From the RMI, select Setup > Library
• From the FPI, select Menu > Setup > Library
Configuring Network Settings
The Network configuration screen provides information on the network settings that are configurable
from the front panel. The network settings include:
• Dynamic or static IP address
• Static IP address
• Static default gateway
• Static subnet mask
• Enable/disable RMI interface
• Enable/disable RMI FW upgrade
Use the Network configuration screen to configure the library network settings. The network settings
set the connectivity of the library to the network.
If Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is enabled on your network, enabling DHCP will
automatically configure the library network settings. If DHCP is not enabled on your network, you
need to manually configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings.
Details on network settings include:
• The library can be set to DHCP mode. In this mode the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway is configured by a DHCP server. DHCP is selected by default. If DHCP mode is not
selected, IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway must be entered.
• The IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway text boxes are limited to numeric characters.
Each of the four groups cannot have a value greater than 255.
The paths to open the appropriate screens are:
• From the RMI select Setup > Network
After the initial setup of your library you can access the Network configuration screens directly from
both the FPI and the RMI:
