9.2 Connectivity
The Connectivity screens support configuration of network access and services. It is divided
into 3 tabs:
 TCP/IP: Configures access to the network from the AX8.
 DICOM: Configures network DICOM services.
 Network Store: Configures non-DICOM storage to a network via FTP.
9.2.1. TCP/IP
This screen configures access to a network. Access can be either wired or wireless*.
Figure 9-6 TCP/IP settings
Wired Settings:
The following settings apply when connecting an AX8 to a wired network via the network port on
the side of the system.
Get Local IP: Either Manually entered (Static) or DHCP. The correct setting will depend
on how your DICOM network is administrated. If you are unsure, try DHCP first.
Generally a Static IP is only needed if the target PACS system requires it. If it is needed,
contact your network IT manager.
IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, DNS: These settings determine how the AX8
communicates with your network. If you chose DHCP then your network router will set
these automatically. If you chose Manually Entered IP then contact your network IT
manager for the appropriate settings.
Wireless Settings:* (note: availability of this feature will depend on local regulatory status)
Enable Wireless: This will turn the wireless radio on/off. No wireless networks are
