A word on the USB interface
How to connect a PC/MAC and log on to
Neuron
• Connect your PC/MAC to Neuron’s USB interface
via the USB net adapter.
• Configure a new LAN network link on your
computer or open the properties/options menu
of an existing connection.
In the TCP/IP Internet protocol properties/
options menu, tell your computer to use the
address entered by you rather than an
automatically assigned IP address. Enter an IP
address that – with the exception of the digits
following the last dot - matches Neuron’s
address. Neuron’s IP address reads:
192.168.1.24
You could enter an address like 192.168.1.10
for your computer.
• Launch the ftp client software on your PC.
• Log on to Neuron using the client software. To
this end, indicate Neuron’s IP address and enter
neuron (lowercase!) as the user name and
password.
You can create a server profile if your ftp client
supports this option. Then you will not have to
log on to Neuron manually at every future
network session.
• After you log on, the ftp root directory on
Neuron’s internal hard disk appears in the client
software’s file browser (see below).
• Copy your data to or from the given ftp
subdirectories.
You need an USB net adapter and a suitable network
cable to connect Neuron to a PC/MAC via USB. In
addition, the TCP/IP Internet protocol and ftp
client software that controls communication at the
computer’s end must be installed on your computer.
