WHEN YOU USE WEB
ACCESS, YOU GO
THROUGH THE
GLOBAL ACCESS SITE,
THEN THROUGH YOUR
OWN COMPUTER AND
FINALLY INTO THE
CENTRAL AXIS UNIT
Enabling and Disabling Web Access
Web Access allows you to access the same folders on your Central
Axis that you access via the Central Access Manager desktop
application.
But before you can access folders via the Web, you must enable
Web Access for those folders. To do this, you link your Maxtor
Central Axis local (desktop) account to your Seagate Global
Access account.
•
In the Central Access Manager application on your PC,
click "Enable/Disable Web Access" then sign in to your
local desktop account.
•
On the next screen, sign into your Seagate Global Access
account.
You have now linked your desktop and Web accounts. Web access
is now enabled. Since this is your own account, you can now
access all of your folders and files from any Web-connected
computer.
Access Via the Web
In the previous steps, you used your own PC to authenticate your
accounts and then enabled Web access by linking them.
Remember, to access Central Axis from another computer, you go
through the Global Access site, then through your own computer
and into the Central Axis unit. Each has its own login that you
linked in the previous step. Now, when you log in to Global
Access, you'll be taken directly to your files without needing to do
a second sign on.
•
From another computer, go to the Global Access site at
