If the receiver is connected to the Internet, you can access the latest files online using the default link.
Alternatively, you can download the files to a local windows computer and view the files using a web browser. See Help Location for details.
To download the "Help" files, paste the following link into a web browser, after replacing the x.xx with the firmware version.
Use the "Help Link" field to point to the location of the Help files.
The "Help Link" enables you to host the online help on either a local computer or a LAN running a web server. This link is useful if you use a computer to access the web interface, but you do not have a permanent internet connection. Various web servers can be used to host the help files. The following example explains how to use Apache:
- Go to the Apache website at http://httpd.apache.org/.
- Find the most recently released version. Click latest version and then install the version.
- By default, Apache 2.2 uses the following location for the root of the web server content C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs.
- For the English help in the Apache root directory, add a folder "en".
- In the "en" folder, download and then unzip the receiver Help. From the Contents tab, select Download Guides / Download Help (.zip file).
- Open a browser on the computer that is running Apache. The help should now be located at http://localhost/en.
- On the "Help Location" page, enter localhost in the "Help Link " field. The receiver web interface appends the prefix and the two character language code ("en" in this case) based on the language that the web interface is operating in.
- Click OK. The help links are now serviced from the local computer. This computer does not need to be local and can be a computer on the local LAN. Instead of "localhost", enter the name or IP address of the machine that is running Apache.
- Download the latest files and update the local help files when new firmware is released.
