Dual HD Giganet Network Attached Storage Enclosure

Before you begin

1. To use the Dual HD Giganet NAS Enclosure (hereafter referred to as “NAS”) to share your

files with other computers on the network, you must use an Ethernet cable together with

properly configured network settings.

2. For optimal security and convenience, we recommend designating a single computer to

handle all NAS configuration settings.

Connect the NAS to Network.

1. Connect the power adapter to the receptor at the back panel of the NAS and then plug the

other end of the power adapter to an electrical outlet. Turn on the power switch; the Power

LED will light up to indicate proper operation.

2. Insert the Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the back of the unit and the other end to an

available Ethernet port on the network adapter in a router/switch/hub. The LED light for Link

Port will illuminate to indicate proper connection.

-Please use a straight-through cable to the LAN port.

-Please make sure that your Local Area Network is working properly prior to inserting

Ethernet cable.

3. To create a printer server, simply connect the printer via USB directly to the NAS.

Note: the NAS does not support GDI/Host-based printers

4. Press the power switch to start or shut down the NAS. It will take about 3 minutes to boot

up / shut down the operation system.

5. Before setting up the NAS, it’s recommended to go through Q&A section at the end of the

manual to avoid mistakes.

LED Indicators

After initial setup, your connected network should follow a form similar to this:

Power ON/OFF Procedure

Always connect the power adapter to your device prior to inserting into electrical outlet. To

turn on the power, press the ON/OFF switch. The blue backlight LED will illuminate and the

unit will begin to boot up. About 2 minutes is required for the drive to be ready. During boot

up, the Link LED will be blinking.

To turn off the NAS, stop all current downloads and transfers, then turn off the power using

the ON/OFF switch. It will take about 1 minute for the drive to park. If the system will be off

for an extended period of time, remember to also remove the power supply from the electrical

outlet.

Alternatively, the device can also be turned off using the admin interface via web browser.

First login, then go to the “Turn off Server” menu in the System area and turn the server off.

Quick Installation Guide

1. Install either one or two hard drives.

2. Connect the Ethernet cable from your network router/switch to the NAS.

3. After everything is connected, turn on the NAS and wait about 2 minutes for boot up.

4. Access the web configuration interface via your web browser. See “How to login” in the

section below.

5. Go to the Maintenance menu and use the disk utility to format the drive. If two identical

drives are installed (as is factory default), you may go to the RAID setting section and create a

RAID array. Do not perform any other functions while formatting and configuring RAID.

6. Once the drive has been formatted, go to the Basic menu and follow the quick setup wizard.

This will help you to set up the IP configuration, add users and prepare file sharing.

7. You are now ready to share and download files.

Note: Without installing and formatting a drive first, most functions will not be available (e.g.

User & Group Management and BitTorrent download).

How to login

To configure your NAS, you will need to use the web browser. You will enter the IP address

and then use the web configuration for further setup. There are several methods to discover

the IP address of the device on the following pages.

Use the Setup utility included on the CD. This will list the device automatically and allow you

to access the web configuration interface. You may also use the same utility to map the

network drive after you setup your shares. The Setup Utility is located in the “Contents/CAND”

folder of the Resources CD. The SetupUtil icon should appear as follows:

Step 1. Turn on the NAS and make sure it is connected to the same network as your

computer.

Step 2. Start the Setup utility by double clicking on the SetupUtil.exe file and then press the

Setup button.

Step 3. Your NAS will automatically show up in the device list; if not, make sure the Setup

utility has access to the network and search again. You might have to configure your firewall

or even temporarily turn it off.

Step 4. Select “nas” and double-click to enter the GUI setup, or click OK to change the IP

setting.

Step 5. Enter the admin password before accessing the device. The default login is admin;

enter admin for the password as well. Press OK to login.

Step 6. You can define the name for your device and set up the IP configuration. We

recommend using the “Automatically obtain an IP address (DHCP)”. Press Next to continue.

Step 7. Set the time zone, current Date and Time. Click Next to continue.

Step 8. You can compare your new settings with the previous configuration. Fix any mistakes

by pressing Back. Press Save to confirm new settings.

Step 9. Double click “nas” to Enter Web GUI of NAS.

Note: Alternatively, you could also simply write down the IP address in the first step of the

setup wizard and then access the web configuration interface via your web browser. Input the

IP address in the URL field of your web browser, hit Enter, enter “admin” for the username,

and “admin” again for the password and then login. You can now use the setup wizard online

or configure the individual settings yourself.

Web Configuration

Input the username and password in the login page; “admin” is the default login and “admin”

is the default password. Changing these security privileges is recommended afterwards.

Hard Disk setup

1. Select Control Panel >> Maintenance >> RAID Setting

2. Select RAID level you want to perform (RAID 0, RAID 1 or JBOD). Cavalry recommends

RAID 1 for optimum data security.

3. Press “Create raid system” to start building RAID level and formatting. (This process may

require some time; do not use other applications during formatting).

The settings in this menu are for users who want to quickly setup the NAS and share files on

the local network. Only the most basic functions and settings are available; this is ideal for

first-time users. For advanced set up, see Control Panel.

Control Panel

This menu includes all the settings and information the NAS offers. Sorted into individual

categories, the user can access particular settings or adjust and modify everything manually.

Personal Info

This menu is for the system administrator account. It includes the option to set the password

and other options related to the web interface.

Logout

This can be used to logout once all the settings have been configured.

Note: Without installing and formatting a drive first, several functions will not be

available (e.g.: User & Group Management and BitTorrent download).

Quick Setup

The settings in this menu are for users who want to quickly setup the NAS and share files on

the local network. Only the most basic functions and settings are available and is ideal for first

users. For advanced set up, see Control Panel.

Wizard

The setup wizard can be used to configure all the basic LAN settings for your NAS. For PC

users, if you have followed the setup wizard previously, there is no need to go through this

again unless you want to change some of the settings or have not yet completed the setup.

Step 1: Select your preferred language for the web interface from, English, German,

Spanish, French, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.

If strange characters appear after changing the language setting, please change the “IE” code

page setting to solve this problem.

Go to the toolbar and select “View” “Encoding” then select the appropriate language.
