How to find the NVD-25 on an IP network
By default, once the physical connections have been made, the NVD-
25 will try to obtain an IP Address from a DHCP network server .
As we will see this can be changed later to a Static IP address if
required.
How to use the NVD-25 IP Finder utility
software
Datavideo supplies a free, Windows based utility, called NVD-25 IP
Finder . The first time this software is used on the computer you may
need to grant permission through your computers firewall / anti-virus
software in order for it to be able to scan or search the local network.
When the utility scans the LAN that the computer is connected to, it
displays the current IP address for any NVD-25 units found on this
local IP network. Double clicking on the device listed will automatically
open your computer’s default web browser and navigate to the login
page of the NVD-25.
If you are using an Apple computer then you can use an alternative
utility app such as Fing or Network Analyzer Lite.
