This section describes the additional configuration steps required for some Basler units and
features to work in Omnicast.
This section includes the following topics:
•
"Change the default port for input pin events"
•
•
"Configure Basler BIP2 input/output pins"
•

Change the default port for input pin events
In order to receive input pin events from Basler units, the Archiver needs to open a TCP port
for its HTTP server. The default port is 8081. If this port is already in use on the Archiver
machine, you can change the default port.
To change the default port:
1
On the Archiver machine, navigate to the installation directory, located in
C:\Program
Files\Common Files\DVR Software 4.8\Extensions\Drivers\
on 32-bit machines, and
C:\Pro-
gram Files (x86)\Common Files\DVR Software 4.8\Extensions\Drivers\
on 64-bit machines.
2
Open the
EventHttpServerConfiguration.xml
file in Notepad.
Text similar to the following is displayed:
<BaslerDriverConfiguration>
<HttpServerPort>8081</HttpServerPort>
</BaslerDriverConfiguration>
3
Change the value of the
HttpServerPort
from
8081
to something else, such as
8082
.
NOTE
The value for the
HttpServerPort
must be the same for all standby Archivers associated
with the unit.
4
Save the file, and restart the Archiver.
