Ftp - Graco PrecisionFlo XL Instructions Manual

Ethernet and FTP

FTP

FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. It is a popular
communications protocol designed specifically to
transfer files between computers.
What is Needed?
To properly set up communications, you need to
configure the laptop network settings and make the
physical network connection. The PrecisionFlo XL is
fully configured at the factory and no software configu-
ration or modification is required. Network settings and
physical connection are described below.
Network Settings on the Laptop
Companies have varying policies on who is allowed to
modify parameters such as network settings. Check
with your IS department for approval before proceed-
ing. The procedure shown illustrates the steps for
Windows 98; other Windows platforms are similar.
1. In Windows 98, click on Start→Settings→Control
Panel.
2. When the Control Panel appears, double-click on
the Network icon.
3. A dialog box appears. In the list displayed at the
top, there should be a line representing the physi-
cal network card (also called network adapter)
installed on your computer. For example, "Network
of Xircom CreditCard 10/100+Modem 56" (see
Fig. 84).
Further down in the same list, there should be
another line that indicates the TCP/IP protocol is
installed. For example, "TCP/IP→ Network of Xir-
com CreditCard 10/100+Modem" (see Fig. 85).
4. Select the "TCP/IP → Network of ..." line and click
on Properties.
