Identifying the Camera on your Network
2.1
Identifying Camera IP Address
To begin viewing video or configuring a camera’s network settings from the camera’s web/browser
interface, the user must first identify the device’s IP address. The default IP address of the camera is
192.168.XXX.XXX.
The default subnet mask is
255.255.0.0.
On simple, private networks, a user can manually identify the IP address of the camera by converting the
camera’s MAC address hex values, however, the alternative method, which is recommended by 3xLOGIC,
is to use the 3xLOGIC (VSX-IP) Camera Setup Utility. The utility makes detection and configuration of VISIX
camera’s in any network environment simple and easy, regardless of network complexity.
Please install the camera before continuing. Neither of the below methods require an external internet
connection, however, the camera and the PC being used to communicate with it must reside on the same
network.
MANUALLY IDENTIFY CAMERA IP ADDRESS (MAC ADDRESS HEX CONVERSION)
Users can access the camera’s web interface and settings using a device’s default IP address: In case of
generic private network environment where IP address
192.168.XXX.XXX
are used, the following procedure
can be used to identify a device’s IP address.
Steps:
1).
Convert the device’s MAC address to the IP address. Refer to
Section 8:
at the end of the manual (the MAC address of the device is written on the
label affixed to the side or bottom of the device).
2).
Start the Microsoft® Internet Explorer/Edge web browser and enter the address of the device.
3).
Web streaming and device configurations are supported through ActiveX program. When the
ActiveX installation window appears, authorize and install the ActiveX.
MAC address = 00-13-23-01-14-B1 → IP address = 192.168.20.177
Convert the last two sets of hexadecimal numbers to decimal numbers.
