Security Warning
When connecting to the network, be aware of security-related problems. See the examples of Security
measures below and set up the product properly along with the network devices.
[Information security risks]
- Unauthorized access from the outside through a network could cause the system halt, data damage, or
exposure to malware * 1.
- Invaded and used as a stepping stone, a device might attack the others through networks.
(a victim becomes an assailant)
- Information might leak without realizing due to the connection to the network.
- Secondary damages such as harmful rumors, liability in damages, social credibility fall, and
opportunity loss are expected led by the troubles described above.
*1…Malware (Malicious Software) is software that brings harm to a computer system and performs unintended operations.
[Security measures - e.g.]
- Do not keep using the default password. (Refer to the product manual for the password setting).
- Set a strong password.
⇒Combined with upper and lowercase letters, and numbers so that it cannot be easily analogized
by others.
- Change the password periodically.
- Disable unnecessary network services and functions.
- Restrict access to the network with network devices.
*2
- Restrict ports to be released on the network with network devices.
- Create a closed network connection using such as dedicated network or VPN
*3
.
*2…Inquire for setting procedure to manufacturers.
*3…VPN (Virtual Private Network): a secured network that wards off unauthorized access by protecting the communication path with
authentication and encryption.
Unfortunately, there are no perfect ways to avert unauthorized access or close a security hole that are endlessly
found day and night. Please understand that risks are always involved with the Internet connection, and we
strongly recommend a user should constantly update information security measures.

1. System Setup
Setup procedure
The monitoring and control server must be set to a unique IP address that is not used by any of the I/O
Assist server units, I/O controller units, or other devices on your network.
The factory default settings are an IP address of "10.1.1.1" and network mask of "255.0.0.0".
(1) Connect the power supply cable and network cable to the monitoring and control server.
Two different methods are available for connecting the monitoring and control server to a host
controller, and a different cable is used in each case.
- If connecting via a hub, use a straight cable.
- If connecting directly, use a crossed cable.
(2) The monitoring and control server searches the network for I/O Assist server units and I/O
controller units, and collects input data automatically.
(3) You can use a Web browser on the host controller to connect to the monitoring and control server
and display input data.
Set the IP address and network mask of the host controller so that it belongs to the same network as
the monitoring and control server.
Example)
IP address of host controller : 10.1.1.2
Network mask of host controller : 255.0.0.0 can be used.
You will not be able to connect using a Web browser if the IP address and network mask settings
are incorrect.
(4) The procedure for using a Web browser to display input data is described in the "Basic Setup from a
Web Browser" section.
1. System Setup

SVR-MMF2(FIT)
Basic Setup
The monitoring and control server continuously collects the latest data from the devices connected to
the I/O Assist server units and I/O controller units on the network.
You can use a Web browser to connect to the monitoring and control server from a host computer and
create and display monitoring screens.
Basic Setup from a Web Browser
Operating procedure
(1) Start the Web browser and enter the IP address of the monitoring and control server in the address
field of the browser.
Use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.x or later as the Web browser.
Example) IP address : 10.1.1.1
Enter “http://10.1.1.1/”.
Menu is automatically specified whether to display in “Japanese”, “English” and “Chinese” by the
Web Browser language setup to be used.
(2) The [Main Menu] screen is displayed.
