Hardware connections between video servers
A VIP X with a camera connected to it can be used as a transmitter and a
compatible MPEG-4 hardware decoder (such as the VIP XD) with a connected
monitor as a receiver using an Ethernet network connection. This way it is
possible to cover large distances with little effort for installation or cabling.
Installation
VIP devices are designed to connect with one another automatically with the
corresponding configuration. This only requires that they be part of a closed
network. Proceed as follows to install the devices:
– Connect the devices to the closed network using Ethernet cables.
– Connect them to the mains supply.
Note
Make sure the devices are configured for the network environment and the
correct IP address for the remote location to be contacted in the event of
an alarm is set on the
