3.2. Wireless connection
This section only applies to 601n/604n.
3.3.1. Preliminary
Before you can access wireless network, wireless parameters should be set correctly. You
have to setup the first wireless parameter set through LAN (wired) connection.
Wireless access can be set as infrastructure (station) mode, which need an access point to
route network messages with the same SSID.
Wireless access can be secured by WEP (64/128), WPA-PSA (TKIP/AES), and WPA2-PSK (AES).
If parameters mismatch causes wireless access is not allowed, you have to modify those
parameters through LAN connection.
In infrastructure mode, the maximal transfer rate is 150 MBits depending on access point’s
capability.
3.3.2. Set Wireless Configuration Using Control Center

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

Chapter 4 Using the USB Device Server
4.1. Introduction
The goal of this produce is to provide the USB device server in a single product. We developed a new
teholog alled NetU“B to ahiee this goal. Basiall, the NetU“B is a U“B oe IP teholog
that taspaetl ediets all U“B pakets to TCP/IP etok hael. NetU“B allos 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

opeatio i the Cotol Cete, PC a the detet a U“B deie’s plug-in, although actually you do not
plug i a U“B deie. “iilal, the disoet opeatio is a softae opeatio 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 deie is oeted 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 siplest a to do this is usig Cotol Cete to seah fo the U“B deie see 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. Iset the CDROM ito the CD die ad u the autou poga.

4.6. Auto-Connect Printer
The method described in section 4.5 is so-called manual-connect, which means users must manually
connect the USB device before using that device, and must manually disconnect the USB device after
using the device, otherwise nobody else can connect this device. However, for printers and scanners (and
MFPs), the USB device server supports auto-oet so uses do’t eed to auall oet/disoet.
This and the next sections show you how to do this.
