The Initial setup process

Edit online

When you turn on the library for the first time, the Initial Setup process starts automatically. Click Next to start the process.

The initial setup process guides you through the most fundamental settings of the library. The process includes setting the Internal IP range, setting library network configuration, configuring date and time, and setting the administrator PIN. Once you set the IP range, you can skip the remaining items and stop the process at any time. From there, you can start the setup wizard from the Management GUI to complete more configuration items.

Notes on navigation and entering data into the Operator Panel

  • The arrow keys on the front panel are used to select numeric and alphanumeric characters and symbols. Capital and lowercase letters, numbers, and punctuation are available to use.
  • The right button under the arrows is Enter, which is pressed before you enter text.
  • The left button under the arrows is Back/Return, which is used to delete entries.
