4. Configuring Devices
To install and configure the RVS’s software, you will first need to assign an IP address to the device (see
Section
4.1
). Then configure the RVS in one of three ways: via the Setup Wizard (
Section 4.2
), the Web user interface
(
Section 4.3
), or the Command-Line Interface (
Section 4.4
). You can also configure multiple devices via batch
configuration (
Section 4.5
).

The preferred way to assign an IP address and initially configure the RVS is to use the RVS Device Setup
Wizard. This software is on the CD that you received with your Remote Video System IP.
The RVS Device Setup Wizard “discovers” the device, and then assigns an IP address and configures your device
for your needs. It can be used with the Web interface to “tweak” the specific environment. This quick,
automated, and complete setup is specially designed for the Windows environments.
Prerequisites
Make sure your installation meets the following requirements:
• Connect the Remote Video System IP to the network and power it up.
• Use the CD on a system running a Microsoft Windows or UNIX operating system.
• Write down the MAC address for the Remote Video System IP (located on the label on the bottom of the
product) and record it to use later to assign an IP address.
Procedure
1. Insert the RVS CD in the CD drive. If the CD does not start automatically, double-click
My Computer > CD ROM Drive > setup.exe
.
2. The RVS Device Setup Wizard will automatically pop up. Select your platform and click
Next
. The RVS
device discovery utility finds and lists all RVS devices on your network.
3. Locate your Remote Video System IP by its MAC address.
4. Select the Remote Video System IP and then click
Next
.
Follow the instructions in the wizard to configure your Remote Video System IP. Use the online help supplied
with the wizard if you need more information about values the wizard prompts you to supply and select.
