Using Remote Desktop

Microsoft’s Remote Desktop feature, enabled by default on the FaxPress Enterprise, allows you to access the Enterprise’s Embedded Windows operating system from any other network workstation with Remote Desktop installed. The Remote Desktop feature is installed by default on Windows XP machines, and is optional on other Windows operating systems. See your Microsoft documentation for information on using Remote Desktop.

The FaxPress Enterprise allows two remote desktop sessions at a time. Only two administration sessions can be active at the same time.

To set the Enterprise IP address using Remote Desktop, follow these steps:

1. From any network workstation with Remote Desktop enabled, go to Start>All Programs>Accessories>Communications> Remote Desktop Connection.
2. In the Remote Desktop Connection Screen, in the Computer field, enter the FaxPress Enterprise’s current IP address.
3. Click Connect.
4. Enter Administrator in the Windows screen’s User Name field, and castelle in the Password field. Make sure castelle is all lower case.

The monitor, now functioning as a remote terminal for the Enterprise’s system, will display the Enterprise’s system rather than the local system attached directly to the monitor.

Changing the FaxPress Enterprise’s IP Address Using Remote Desktop

To change the FaxPress Enterprise’s IP address using Remote Desktop, first use Remote Desktop as described above to connect to the FaxPress Enterprise’s Windows system, then go to Start>Settings>Control Panel>Network and Dialup Connections>Local Area Connection Properties>Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties.
