Configuring a 5508 via the SFP ports

Is there anyway to configure a 5508 via the SFP ports? Or do you have to use the service port for autoinstall or NCS auto provisioning? It looks like it grabs a DHCP address but it doesn't seem to like telnet,ssh ,http or https. There isn't anyone onsite.

Thanks, I got it figured out. The 5508 was plugged up to a switch that was configured for lag (for the 5508 that was hooked up before). I changed the port channel to put the native vlan on one that hands out DHCP. The blank 5508 grabbed an ip but wasn't working. I ended up disabling the other ports connecting to the 5508. I defaulted the switchport that was connected to the 5508's SFP port 1 and put it in the right access vlan. I was then able to ping the IP it grabbed and http in to it.
thanks though!

Airport Express as an end point on a wireless network and connect a computer via the ethernet port?

Can I use my Airport Express as an end point on a wireless network and connect a computer via the ethernet port? - I'm wanting to connect a computer that does not have wireless and is in another building.

The requirements for this to work are:
1) The AirPort Express must be the 802.11"n" version. Model Number is A1264
2) There must be adequate wireless signal stength where the Express will be located
3) The Express must be configured to "join" the wireless network with the option checked to activate the Ethernet port

Is there a way to enable & configure Volume Discounts via the Product Import Spreadsheet? Is there a way to enable more than 2 Quantity Thresholds?

Is there a way to enable & configure Volume Discounts via the Product Import Spreadsheet? Is there a way to enable more than 2 Quantity Thresholds?

Hi Michael,
You can set the thresholds via an import file. The easiest way to do this (and this goes for all importable data, webapps included, 301 redirects and so on) is this:
1. go into the Admin and create a single item, in you case create a test product and set the thresholds
2. export that data - in your case export the product list
3. take a look at how the data looks like in the export file so you can get an idea of how the format should be like in the import file
Unfortunately you cannot set more than 2 thresholds, that is not possible at the moment.
Thanks,
Mihai

Is it possible to connect an HP LaserJet P4015n printer to a computer via the ethernet ports?

My usb port on my Laserjet P4015n no longer works and I am unable to connect this printer to my network router because it's in a different room. Is it possible to connect an HP LaserJet P4015n printer to a computer via the ethernet ports? Of so, how would I go about making this connection? Will I need to install ethernet drivers for this to work?
Thanks,
Greg

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

HT2497 do I connect my airport express to my modem via the WAN port and then connect to my imac via ethernet cable?

Do I connect my airport express to my modem via the WAN port and then connect from airport express to my imac with ethernet cable? Is that how you "hard wire" the connection? Because when I do that, I still can't get online. Thanks.

What is the make & model of your modem?
You pretty much stated the correct wiring. There should be an Ethernet cable connected between the modem and the WAN (circle of dots) port on the AirPort Express base station.
Anytime you change networking hardware it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of that hardware. Check out the following AirPort User Tip for details. Please post back your results.

Does anyone get the mouse lag with an external display connected via the display port?

does anyone get the mouse lag with an external display connected via the display port?

You don't describe the problem in great detail. Is this the issue you are describing?
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4398076?start=0&tstart=0
If so, then, "Yes." I have the same problem. Note that this isn't a tracking speed problem for me, it's a lag between my hand moving and the pointer moving on the external display.

Communicating via the Com port (comm)

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to communicate to the com port on my device but apparently can't "see" any available com ports.
Actually I'm trying to communicate via the Infrared port on my device and have been able to do so on a Nokia using COM0, however, on an Orange SPV, no ports are available. I'm using the Connector class from GCF.
I've used
System.getProperty("microedition.commports")
and on the Nokia get a load of ports back, however, on the other device I get back null. The device does have a IrDA port so I feel like I should be able to access it, I just don't know how.
I wondered if there is other ways to get hold of a port?
Reading http://developers.sun.com/mobility/midp/questions/properties/index.html it implies that the above property is implementation specific, does that mean Midlet Manager implementation specific (the SPV device uses Intent Java).
Thanks for any suggestions or any tips / links on IrDA / serial communication with ME :)
Cheers,
Toby

Start with the NI modbus library.
http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/201711
Or download portmon and use it to watch the data as modscan is working. Then use VISA and serial port commands to transfer data bytes until it matches what modscan is transmitting. You'll learn more doing it this way.
Also download the modbus protocol pdf file.

I'm having trouble communicating with a transducer (Keyence LS-3100 laser scan micrometer) via the serial port. It works in Hyperterminal. Any suggestions?

Its not a simple baud-rate or parity error. If I issue the command to send data (X1) in hyperterminal I start to get data. If I then switch to Labview I still get data. However if I try to issue the send-data command via Labview I get nothing (i.e. I can read from the device, but not write to it).
I am on a Windows 98 (version 2) PC, running Labview 5.1.1

Try adding a carraige return to the end of your command.

Can I share internet from a airport express via the ethernet port

I have a older airport express that I am trying to you to share the internet with a Marantz AV receiver. I used to be able to share the internet to a PS2 a few years back.
I was able to set up another network parallel to my normal wireless network with an older moonbase style airport extreme using WDS.
I am unsure if this is the limitation that apple has introduced to the unit, or it is a Telstra firewall issue.
Is it possible using a combination of Airport Etremes or expresses to share the internet to a wired unit?

I have a new airport extreme that I use all the time. I was using the older airport express for airplay.
The older airport extreme I just pulled down from the cupboard trying to get the AVR connected.
Since posting I have able to use the Airport extreme to connect the AVR via the ethernet port.
Still curious why I cannot connect using the airport express.
Interestingly the older airport extreme pushed the new airport extreme into WDS mode. Tried to hook up the express and it did not work.

I have an iMac and also a MacBook. All of a sudden my iMac does not recognise my Canon 500D camera even though I have downloaded 1000s of photographs from it via the USB port. The MacBook recognises the camera immediately. Can anyone help?

Thank you for your reply. I know I can use a card reader however I don't see why I should when importing directly from my camera has worked reliably for years. The process I use is simply connecting the digital output from my camera to the USB port on the iMac, which has previously automatically opened iPhoto ready for the import. Now all of a sudden my iMac does not recognise the camera. However if I connect in the same way to my MacBook then iPhoto opens automatically on the MacBook, recognises the camera and is ready for importing. So whilst I know I can use a reader, or my MacBook I want to use my iMac in the same way that I have for years. I can only assume that the settings on the iMac may have changed, but I cannot verify this.

I want to view the screen of my dslr camera in live view on my macbook pro via the hdmi port, is this possible?

I would like to view the output from my DSLR on the screen of my macbook using the hdmi port. I know I can connect to a tv to send images "out" from my macbook, but is it possible ti send images in?? I operate my camera by remote control, and would really live a live view if possible.
Thank

Nope - you can only output video from your MBP - there's not a port for input.

Can I connect an external hard drive to my Airport Express and share it to store files on between two machines via the usb port. The machines are a MacBook and a fairly new Win machine. Printers and Airplay as well as wifi work perfect.

Wondering about the above.

... I bought a hard drive at an Apple store because they told me I could hook it up through my Airport express.
Bzzt. Nope. Bring it back.

Question: What is an AirPort Express?
Answer: An AirPort Express is a Wi-Fi base station. Besides acting as an Internet access point, it has several specialized features which make it ideal for specific needs.
Printer - Act as a wireless interface for one printer connected to the USB port, making it available to your network
"Hook it up" - in the sense that a wireless device may be wirelessly "hooked up" to an Express - is a different matter; like "hooking up" with a friend.
Words mean things. Imprecise words mean imprecise things. That generally doesn't end well.
Apple ought to read this stuff once in a while.

Downloading music via the USB port from Zen

I love my Zen but it would be nice to be able to dock it and listen to it when connected to my PC?or the USB port on my car radio, neither work in this mode. The car radio works fine when WMA files are loaded from a USB jump dri've but when the same files are on the ZEN they do not load from the USB port. The car radio manufacturer says it supports iPOD connection. On the PC I have to copy the files to another dri've to listen to them which is daft.

Make sure External disks is checked

1080p via the DVI port

Is it possible to connect a 1080p TV to the Mac Pro? This would mean using a DVI to HDMI cable. And assuming the connection works, would that monitor display 1920x1080 pixels? What I'm trying to do is get a large display at a readable pixel density (around 72 dpi). A 32 inch 1080p tv would get me down to 69-70 pixels per inch, which is a lot easier on the eyes than any computer monitor. Has anybody ever tried this? I know Sony's XBR9 claims (in the manual) to be able to deliver 1920x1080 computer signal.

I have a Sony 52' XBR5 connected to my Mac Pro.
I used to use a DVI > HDMI cable to connect Mac Pro to my TV, however, the text while readable was no way as clear as using a regular LCD monitor. I was able to get a resolution of 1920 x 1080 with no problems.
The 52" XBR5 comes with a VGA PC input, after switching to a DVI > VGA cable I am 100 times happier than with the HDMI cable. The resolution is still 1920 x 1080, but the text is much much clearer/sharper. I sit about 10 feet away from the TV and I am able to read the text perfectly.
I'm using the ATI Radeon HD 4870 with a DVI > VGA (TV), and Mini Display Port > DVI (26" Samsung Syncmaster). I have noticed that when I wake up the displays I only get the colored static on my LCD monitor and not on the TV.
