connected to the network, the Host Name list will contain the names of PCs running In-Sight

Name does not appear, click the Refresh button.

on to the In-Sight sensor you selected. The spreadsheet for that sensor will appear. The
Host Name of the sensor you are logged on to is displayed in the lower-left corner of the
spreadsheet.
NOTE
To log on to a sensor, you must supply a valid User Name and password. New In-Sight
sensors are shipped with a User List containing three standard accounts: admin,
monitor and operator; each of these accounts is configured with a blank password.
5. Open the System menu and select Live to view an acquired image. If the image appears, the
In-Sight 3400 sensor has a fully functional network connection.
NOTE
If the In-Sight 3400 sensor does not have a fully functional network connection, verify
the In-Sight network settings. In the In-Sight Network dialog, verify that the IP Address
and Subnet Mask are valid.
