Using Remote Desktop

FaxPress Premier WebHelp: Admin Guide > Setting Up the FaxPress Premier Server > Using Remote Desktop

Microsoft’s Remote Desktop feature, enabled by default on the FaxPress Premier, allows you to access the Premier’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 and Vista, and is optional on other Windows operating systems. See your Microsoft documentation for information on using Remote Desktop.

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

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

From any network workstation with Remote Desktop enabled, navigate to Start>All Programs>Accessories>Communications>Remote Desktop Connection.

In the Remote Desktop Connection Screen, in the Computer field, enter the FaxPress Premier’s current IP address.

Click Connect.

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 FaxPress Premier’s system, will display the Premier system remotely rather than the local system attached directly to the monitor.

Changing the FaxPress Premier’s IP Address Using Remote Desktop

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