DHCP: Select Enable or Disable. Enables dynamic IP addressing.When DHCP is enabled, the IP address,
Subnet Mask, Gateway, and Server fields are dynamically addressed.
Name Service: Select from Disable, WINS or GnuDIP. Enabling WINS registers the hostname and IP address
within the current Network. This ensures that you can connect StoreSafe Pro II by hostname within the
network. See the note below for information on configuring Dynamic DDS with GnuDIP.
DDNS Update Interval: Select the Dynamic Domain Name Server interval. Select from Disable or from 1 to
1440 minutes.
IP Address / Subnet Mask / Gateway: Consult with a qualified Network Administrator or an MIS
professional to configure these settings if DHCP is not enabled.
Primary Name Server / Backup Name Server: The IP addresses of the Primary and Backup Name Servers.
Not required if DHCP is enabled.
HTTP Port: Select the HTTP Port. Select from Port 0 to 65535. Shortcuts are available for port 80 (Camera 1
button) and 8080 (camera 2 button). Consult with a qualified Network Administrator or an MIS professional to
configure these settings.
Listen Port: The port that StoreSafe Pro II uses to make a connection to WaveReader. If you change this from
the default, the bwval.dat file in the WaveReader directory must be changed to the identical port number.
In order to use Dynamic DNS with GnuDIP, the user has to configure following in the menus:
Name Service must be set to GnuDIP (Ethernet Setting Menu).
Primary Name Server must be set to the IP address of the GnuDIP server (Ethernet Setting Menu).
Hostname must be set to the required hostname format e.g. ge04.companyname.net. For registration
purposes, the string until the first dot is used as hostname (here: ge04), the remainder is used as domain
(here: companyname.net). The hostname is set via the Ethernet Setting menu and is case sensitive.
DDNS update interval must be set to a reasonable value (e.g. 2 minutes).
The password for the DDNS server has to be set in the Passwords->DDNS password menu. The
password is 4 digits long (The Enter button can be used for the number 0).
When everything is configured correctly, the StoreSafe Pro II will send periodically a Dynamic DNS update
message over TCP port 3495 to the Dynamic DNS server telling the server its hostname. The StoreSafe Pro II
does not include its IP address in the message. Instead the Dynamic DNS server extracts the IP address of the
StoreSafe Pro II via the Ethernet source IP address. This guarantees that the correct IP address is used even
when the StoreSafe Pro II is behind a NAT router.
Main Menu / Communications / Ethernet Advanced
Use this menu to configure the Ethernet Advanced communications settings. Select from the
following:
Bandwidth: Local bandwidth control, set from 5Kb per second through 250Kb and Unlimited. The minimum
of this setting and the setting requested by WaveReader will be used.
TCP MTU Size: Select from Standard, 1400, and 1200. The MTU describes the maximum possible TCP
packet size. Standard (1500) is optimal for most ethernet network environments.
Print Server: Enter the Print Servers IP address to enable the Print Image operation (Function and Zoom).
