30 ¥ UPX-2: Universal Presentation Processor
Network Connections
From the Security section of the SETUP MENU, commonly used network drives can
be mapped. All mapped network connections are displayed for convenience, but only
those labeled "persistent" will be reconnected if the UPX-2 is rebooted.
A username and password can be stored to automatically logon to a network
resource. This username and password will be stored as encrypted data on the
UPX-2. If a username and password are not stored (or if the username/password
entered is incorrect), the user will be prompted upon restarting the UPX-2. If the user
is immediately prompted with a second request for a password, the correct
username/password was not entered.
Mapped connections can be verified by clicking on the "Close Browsed Network
Connections" button. This will close all non-persistent connections and remap all
persistent connections.
If the error message "A specified logon session does not exist. It may have already
been terminated." is displayed, a domain or workgroup name may be required as part
of the username. For example, domain\username.
The Close Network Connections join (or button on the Security section of the
SETUP MENU) will close ALL connections and then attempt to reconnect persistent
drives. This will require the user to enter the username and password if it is not
stored.
To change a drive letter of an existing connection, or to add a drive letter to an
existing connection, the connection must be removed and recreated. When recreating
the connection, you can change the username, password, and specify whether the
username/password is to be remembered on existing connections.
Device Extender
If joins in the device extender need to be routed to joins assigned to UPX-2 controls,
the same reserved join (instead of regular joins) should be assigned to these controls
to reduce network traffic.
Project
When uploading a project to an external CF card, a sub-directory instead of the root
should be used as the project working path. Uploading projects directly to the root
directory may fail.
