Server Location
When the "Auto-search scanner servers" option is checked, the Test Connection
window lists the detected computers with their corresponding scanner IP
addresses. If the option is unchecked, you can type the IP address or the host
computer names. In a local area network, each computer has a unique name for
identifying itself from the others.
Note: The IP address is identified by dot-segregated four-position numbers (e.g.,
172.16.17.135). The four number should be within 0 to 255. The left three numbers of
the connected scanner are the same, in other words, all of the connected scanners appear
as "172.16.17", but the last number is unique to the respective scanner.
To know the name of the host computer:
• For Windows 95/98/Me users:
• For Windows 2000/NT users:
Server Port Number
In a local area network, all connected scanners should use the same server port
number; otherwise, the scanners cannot be found. The default and recommend
port number is 303.
Server Search Timeout Period
This edit box allows you to set the timeout period, after which the scanner
server stops its search. Use the up/down button to increase/decrease the
timeout period or input an acceptable period (1 to 60 seconds).
Test Connection
When you click on this button, based on the settings you have made on the TCP/
IP Scanner Setup window, ScanWizard Pro starts to probe the connected
scanner servers on the network, then lists the detected scanner servers in the
Test Connection window.
