4Precautions / About This Manual
Precautions
•The software specifications of this unit
are subject to change for improvements
without notice.
•Screens shown by application software
may differ slightly from the illustrations
shown in this manual.
•For safety, connect the port of this unit
only to a network where there is no
danger of excessive voltage or voltage
surges.
•The steps described in this manual are
guaranteed only for use under the
following environment conditions.
Operating system:
Microsoft Windows XP
Browser:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or
later
•The following may result in damage to
data or damage to the CF (CompactFlash)
card or Microdrive:
– Ejecting a CF card while it is being
accessed
– Placing a Microdrive near a strong
magnet
•The Microdrive is a compact hard disk
drive. Because it is storage medium
utilizing a rotating disk, it is more
susceptible to shocks and impact when
compared to flash memory devices such
as the Memory Stick and the CF card.
•To ensure security on the network, setting
a user name and password is
recommended. For information on how to
make these settings, see the section
“Setup screen” (page 25).
• Because the unit reaches high
temperatures when placed near the
display and used for a long period of
time, be careful when removing it from
the display.

Preparations for
Using the Network
Functions
The BKM-FW50 can be connected to a
network with 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX
LAN cable.
When connected to a LAN, the IP
addresses of the BKM-FW50 can be set
using one of the following two methods.
Consult your network administrator
regarding details about IP address selection.
•Assigning a fixed IP address to the
BKM-FW50
Normally this method should be used.
•Automatically obtaining an IP
address
If the network to which the BKM-FW50
is connected has a DHCP server, you can
have the DHCP server automatically
assign an IP address. Note that in this
case the IP address will change every
time the display in which the BKM-
FW50 is installed is turned on.
Assigning a fixed IP address
to the BKM-FW50
Note that a separate IP address is necessary
for the display control function and for the
still image/video playback function.
Regarding details of IP address selection,
consult your network administrator.
Setting an IP address for the
display control function
First, assign an IP address to the display
control function, using the following
procedure. The IP address assigned in this
way is used for calling the display control
function of the BKM-FW50 from a
computer on the network. Also consult the
operating instructions of the display.
1Connect the BKM-FW50 installed in
the display to the network, using
suitable LAN cable.
2Turn power to the display on and
wait for about 30 seconds.
3Press the MENU button on the
display to bring up the main menu.
4Use the M/mbuttons to select
“INITIAL SETUP/INFORMATION”
and press the ENTER button. The
“INITIAL SETUP/INFORMATION”
menu appears.
5Use the M/mbuttons to select “IP
Address Setup” and press the ENTER
button.
6Use the M/mbuttons to select
“Manual” and press the ENTER
button.
7Enter the necessary items.
1) Use the M/mbuttons to select the
item to enter manually and press
the ENTER button. A cursor
appears in the leftmost field of the
selected item.
2) Use the M/mbuttons or the
numeric buttons on the remote
control to enter a three-digit
number (0 - 255). When you
press the ENTER button or the
,button, the cursor moves to
the next field on the right. Enter a
number in the same way.
3) When all four fields of an item
have been set, pressing the
ENTER button or the ,button
confirms the entry for that item.
4) Make settings for the other items
in the same way.
8Use the M/mbuttons to select
“Execute” and press the ENTER
button.
Next, assign an IP address to the still
image/video playback function.
Setting an IP address for the still
image/video playback function
1Start the browser of the computer
(Internet Explorer 6.0 or later).

Automatically obtaining an IP
address
If you set up the display as described
below, an IP address can be assigned
automatically by a DHCP server on the
network.
1Connect the BKM-FW50 installed in
the display to the network, using
suitable LAN cable.

operations of the router before use.
Checking the automatically
assigned IP address
When an IP address has been automatically
assigned, you can call up the display
control screen of the BKM-FW50 as
follows and check which IP address has
been assigned. The IP address changes each
time power to the display is turned on.
Therefore you must check the IP address as

Resolution Mode:
When this check box is selected, still
images are displayed at high resolution
(WXGA or XGA). If the folder
includes both video files and still
images, the screen turns off for several
seconds to switch resolution when
changing from a still image to a video
(and vice versa).
The following aspect ratios can be
selected for the input images.

full screen display.

Make selections based on the aspect
ratios of the images you wish to view.
When viewing still image files, we
recommend making the aspect ratios of
each file the same.
Notes
•When playing files with mixed aspect
ratios, black bars may appear on
either side of the display, or the
image may be stretched lengthwise.
•Still images with aspect ratios other
than 16:9 or 4:3 can also be
displayed, but black bars may appear
at the top, bottom, and either side of
the display, or the image may be
stretched lengthwise.
•When the RGB mode on the display
is set to DTV mode, the unit
automatically enters over scan mode,
and any text on the outer edges of an
image will be cut off. For the FWD-
40LX1/32LX1R/50PX2, set the over
scan mode to OFF.
