3. If the unit's graphics screens remain black after the unit has had

power applied for more than thirty seconds, you will need to get

the IP address and mask of the unit using the IP Setup tool, as

described in the Setting the IP Address and Network Mask on

page 91.

Enabling FTP Access

If the unit's graphics screens remain black after the unit has had power

applied for more than thirty seconds, the unit is already in FTP mode.

You may skip Step 1.

1. On the monitor, press the ENABLE FTP button.

2. On the PC, open My Computer from the Windows desktop.

3. In the Address line, enter the address you wrote down in Step 2 (on

the previous page), exactly as noted. For example, enter ftp://

192.168.0.2.

4. You will see something similar to the following screen shot in Figure

C–2, if the folders are set to detail view. The filename, folder name, and

file sizes below are accurate. All other attribute information, especially

the dates, are bogus and should be ignored.

Important:

If the address comes up as ftp://0.0.0.0/, the unit is using DHCP in a

peer-to-peer connection, or no Ethernet connection exists. Refer to Step

1 in Setting the IP Address and Network Mask on page 91.

Note:

Pressing the ENABLE FTP knob will cause the

monitor’s display to go dark.
