Once 601n v2/604n v2 connects to the network, either by network cable or by wireless module, all operations to use USB device server are exactly the same. 3.3. Assigning an IP Address to the Server 3.3.1. Preliminary  If you have a DHCP server on your network, your Server will receive an IP address automatically. The IP address will then appear on the Control Center or on the page of configuration report that you printed earlier. If your DHCP server does not give an IP address to the Server, the Server will use the automatic private IP addressing IP: 169.254.0.0. ~ 169.254.255.255  If you are not working in a DHCP network, you need to manually set the Server’s IP address. 3.3.2. IP Address  Unless you are assigning an IP address using DHCP, you must obtain an unused IP address from your network administrator. 3.3.3. Methods for Setting the IP Address You can set the IP address of your Server using one of the following methods, depending on your network operating environment:  Automatic IP Address Assignment  Manual IP Address Assignment 3.3.4. Server Names and Server Name Rules The default see ae of the “ee is KC6 fo 6 o KC64 fo 64 o KC6 fo 6 o KC64 fo 64.

Introduction The goal of this produce is to provide the USB device server in a single product. We developed a new teholog alled NetU“B to ahiee this goal. Basiall, the NetU“B is a U“B oe IP teholog that taspaetl ediets all U“B pakets to TCP/IP etok hael. NetU“B allos ou to use U“B devices as if they were connected directly to your PC although they are actually remotely connected to the 601/601n/604/604n USB device server. 4.2. Connect & Disconnect NetU“B allos ou to use U“B deies as if the ee oeted dietl to ou PC although the ae atuall eotel oeted to the 6/6/64/64 U“B deie see. The oet opeatio is a
© 2014 KCodes Corporation. All rights reserved. 6 Series v2 User’s Manual V1.0 software operation that simulates an actual USB device plug-i. That is to sa, he ou do a oet opeatio i the Cotol Cete, PC a the detet a U“B deie’s plug-in, although actually you do not plug i a U“B deie. “iilal, the disoet opeatio is a softae opeatio that simulates the disconnection of the USB device. Once the connect operation is successful, the operations to use that USB device are just the same as if the USB device is directly connected to the PC. If a U“B deie is oeted  a PC, e sa that PC has the ownership of the USB device. Only one PC can get the ownership of a USB device at the same time. Therefore, if a USB device is connected by one PC, no other PC can connect this USB device until this USB device is disconnected. 4.3. Subnet Issue Before using the NetUSB technology, you must first make sure that your PC can access USB device server ia TCP/IP. The siplest a to do this is usig Cotol Cete to seah fo the U“B deie see o the network and change its IP address to be the same subnet as your PC. If the server and your PC are not in the same TCP/IP subnet, Control Center will show the server in red, as the following figure. You must change the IP address (or using DHCP) of the server so that the server and your PC are in the same subnet. Control Center will show these servers in blue, meaning you can access these servers by the NetUSB technology. 4.4. Installation of USB Device Driver Some USB devices, like printers or MFPs (multifunction printers), require to install vendor-supplied driver (usually on CDROM). For those USB devices that do not need to install driver, please skip this section. 1. Iset the CDROM ito the CD die ad u the autou poga. 2.
