Connecting to ViewCommander-Edge for the First Time 

 

Power 

 
Power  up  the  ViewCommander-Edge  (the  Edge)  by  first  connecting  the  supplied  19 
Volt power supply to the power connector in the back of the Edge unit. Then plug the 
AC adapter into an AC outlet. 
 

Note: Edge Model 2511 will also accept 12V DC power. Make sure 12V power will 
supply at least 2 amps. 

 
ViewCommander-Edge is configured to boot-up when power is supplied. This is useful 
if the power should cycle while the Edge unit is deployed.

connect the Edge unit to a network 

 

Monitor, Keyboard, and Mouse 

 

Simply connect a Monitor/Keyboard/Mouse to the Edge unit and log into it like a 
desktop computer. 

 

Network 

 

Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 jack in the back of the Edge unit to log 
into it via Windows Remote Desktop. See Via Windows Remote Desktop (RDP) 
on Page 11. 
 
The  Edge  is  shipped  with  a  pre-configured  IP  address.  Please  see  the 
supplemental document that was shipped with your ViewCommander Edge for 
specific network information and logon password information.
