3.3 Installation
When installing one or more new LAN Docking
Stations to your network, you can set it up in
one of two ways:
Use the DHCP service on your network •
to assign IP addresses to the LAN Docking
Stations based on the MAC address of each
LAN Docking Station, or
Set the LAN docking station to a default IP •
address to access the configuration interface
and assign a fixed IP address
The LAN Docking has a default configuration
setting to use the DHCP server to obtain its
IP address. This makes it easier to do a batch
installation of several LAN Docking Stations in
a corporate network. See Installation using DHCP
below for more information.
If your network does not support DHCP,
you can set the LAN Docking Station to use
a default static IP address to get started. See
Installation using the factory default IP address
below for more information.
3.3.1 Installation using DHCP
If your network has a DHCP server, follow
the steps below to install new LAN Docking
Stations:
Make a note of the MAC address of every 1
LAN Docking Station that you are about
to install (The MAC address can be found
on the bottom plate of the LAN Docking
Station).
Configure your DHCP server to assign an IP 2
address to each LAN Docking Station based
on the MAC address of each LAN Docking
Station. Refer to the documentation of your
DHCP server for more information.
Deploy the LAN Docking Stations 3
throughout your organization. Connect each
LAN Docking Station to the main power
supply with the included Philips power
supply. Connect each LAN Docking Station
to a free network socket using the RJ45
network cable.
Open a Web browser on your PC and load 4
the LAN Docking Station configuration
interface for each assigned IP address
to configure the LAN Docking Stations
individually. See Configuration on page 9 for
more information.
D Note
The LAN Docking Station is configured by
default to obtain an IP address from your DHCP
server. If this default setting has been changed,
you must reset the device to its factory default
settings before starting. Read Resetting to factory
defaults on page 17 for information on how
to reset the LAN Docking Station to factory
default settings.
E Tip
It is good practice to make a note of the
location and network socket number of
each LAN Docking Station before they are
deployed. You can enter this information into
the comment field of the LAN Docking Station
configuration interface, which will make it easier

Configure the network connetion settings 5
of your PC to use a static IP address
like 192.168.109.xxx and subnet mask
255.255.255.0 for the network socket that is
used to connect the LAN Docking Station.
Open a Web browser on your PC and enter 6
http://192.168.109.1 in the address field
Your user name and password is required. 7
Leave the
USER NAME field empty and enter
‚administrator‘ in the
PASSWORD field.
Change the IP address of the LAN Docking 8
Station according to your network policy.
See Assigning a static IP address on page 13
for more information.
Make any additional configuration changes as 9
you see fit. See Configuration on page 9 for
more information.
D Note
This procedure resets all configuration settings
of the LAN Docking Station to their factory
defaults.
C Important
If installing several LAN Docking Stations,

4.1 Setting up the FTP server
The LAN Docking Station can automatically
upload dictation files to an FTP server when a
Digital Pocket Memo is connected.
The LAN Docking Station has been tested with
a number of FTP servers for the Windows and
Linux platforms. It should also function with
any other FTP server conforming to the FTP
protocol specifications standard. The following
FTP servers have been tested with the LAN
Docking Station:
Microsoft Internet Information Server•
WS FTP Server•
WinSSHD•
FileZilla Server•
freeftpd•
OpenSSHD•
If you have multiple LAN Docking Stations
on your network, there is no need to create
a dierent file upload directory for each
installation. The LAN Docking Station was
designed to work more eciently with a single
shared file upload directory.
E Tip
It is a good practice to make the file upload
directory available to employees at your
organization as a shared network folder
that they can map to a drive letter on their
computers. This makes it quick and easy for
them to pick up dictation jobs, and allows you
to control access to the uploaded dictation files
using the existing user and group configuration
in your network domain.
D Note
The LAN Docking Station opens FTP data
connections in passive mode. If there is a
firewall between the LAN Docking Station
and your FTP server, make sure that the LAN
Docking Station can connect to port numbers
used for passive data transfer. Refer to the
User Manual of your FTP server for more
information.
Setting up the file upload directory 4.2
on your FTP server
Create a directory on the FTP server to store
uploaded dictation files. This dictory will be
referred to as the ‚file upload directory‘ in this
user guide.
10 User manual
Files stored in the file upload 4.3
directory
When dictation files are uploaded from a Digital
Pocket Memo, the LAN Docking Station creates
a subdirectory with the serial number of the
Digital Pocket Memo under the file upload
directory and places all uploaded files there. The
file names of the uploaded files are composed of
the name of the author, the sequential number
of the file, and the .DSS file extension.
The LAN Docking Station also creates a
“configuration” subdirectory in the file upload
directory and creates a file named MAC_config.
txt, where MAC is the MAC address of the
LAN Docking Station. These files contain
configuration information for the LAN Docking
Page 11
Station and are used by the Administration Tool.
See LAN Docking Station Administration Tool on
page 18 for more information.
Setting up the file upload user 4.4
account on your FTP server
Create a user account on your FTP server
that the LAN Docking Station will use to
upload dictation files. This user account needs
the following access rights to the file upload
directory:
Create subdirectories•
Create and write files•
List directory contents•
The user name and password for this user
account must be entered at the LAN Docking
Station configuration interface. See the next
chapter for details.
4.5 FTP settings
