3.7 DVIP
The Introduction of the DVIP
The concept of the DVIP is to search Davavideo related products and to set the network
configurations of those devices by broadcasting through the UDP socket. After that, the
control commands will be transferred through TCP socket.
How to Connect the NH-100 Camera and the Remote Controller via the DVIP Control
The BC-100 NightHawk camera can be directly connected to a PC for DVIP controlling
through an RJ-45 Ethernet cable.
Broadcast Packet
The UDP is a communication protocol to transfer data to remote host. For transferring data
through the UDP packet, it is a must for you to know the destination IP address and the DVIP
device server (UDP) port number. The PC uses broadcast packet to obtain DVIP device
information in the same network. Please follow following information for the destination IP
address and the DVIP device server (UDP) port number.
Destination IP address: 255.255.255.255
DVIP Device Server(UDP) port number: 5002
For further information of the broadcast packet and the UDP/TCP protocols, please refer to
“Datavideo DVIP Ethernet Control Operation Guide”.
