Fig. 4 Setting the SiPass Server IP address
A
Enter the PC name or IP address of the SiPass server. Note that the value 127.0.0.1 is always
valid if the SiPass and MM8000/MK8000 servers are installed on the same PC.
Setting up the SiPass configuration structure
The SiPass configuration can be imported into Composer in order to allow a fast
and seamless alignment process between the two systems.
There are two ways to import the configuration:
A. On-line mode: the SiPass server is accessible over the network and the con-
figuration data can be acquired directly.
B. Off-line mode: the SiPass server is not yet accessible over the network and the
configuration data can be acquired by means of an export file.
Importing the SiPass configuration: on-line mode
In the first case, once the SiPass server name is properly set, you can proceed as
follows:
1. Click the Connect button.
A connection with the SiPass server is established.

In a few seconds, the Connection Status will indicate the successful connec-
tion (Fig. 5).
Fig. 5 Connecting to SiPass server for on-line configuration
If the connection fails, an error message appears (Fig. 6). In this case, check
that:
 The network connection is working (e.g. use the Ping command).
 On the server machine, the SiPass software is running properly.
