CONNECTING TO VISTALINK PRO 

This chapter assumes that the VistaLINK

®

 

PRO  server and client are already configured for your 

network and you have basic knowledge of the VistaLINK

®

 

PRO interface. It also assumes that the user 

or network administrator has already added the appropriate jar file to the server, and both the client 
and server applications have been restarted. Please refer to the VistaLINK

®

 

PRO  manual for 

instructions on how to load a jar file. If you are the network administrator refer to section 6for 
information on updating the VistaLINK

®

 

PRO Server Jar File. 

 
Open VistaLINK

®

 

PRO and click on the refresh tree icon. Expand the hardware tree by clicking on the 

“+” button. Your card should appear as a newly listed device with the IP address used to configure the 
card in section 2.3. It may take up to a minute to appear while the card and switch negotiate network 
settings (this can be verified directly on the switch if necessary). The user  will be required to 
individually select each item to configure the appropriate function. 
 

 

Note: If after a couple of minutes the card has still not appeared, try selecting 
Add Agent from the Tree> Add/Update Agent  menu. Enter the IP address and 
select OK.  The card should now be listed and will remain grayed out for a 
moment while VistaLINK

®

 

PRO

 

finds the card and confirms its configuration. 

 
Please consult your network administrator if you continue to have problems connecting the card with 
VistaLINK

®

 

PRO, alternatively contact Evertz Microsystems Ltd. or your authorized reseller for technical 

support.
