LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY

Confirm that the NVT transceivers have been configured to com-
municate with each other, per instructions on page 3.

If you are experiencing problems, attempt to simplify your setup.
Test each cable segment separately. For example, test a simpler
configuration  first.  Then  add  in  the  NVT  transceivers,  back-to-
back.  Test  each  segment  of  a  long  cable-run  independently.
Attempt to isolate the problem.

Most  IP  camera  installation  problems  involve  configuring  the  IP
camera and the recorder to recognize each other. If in doubt, con-
nect  the  camera  directly  to  the  Ethernet  switch,  bypassing  the
transceivers.  Consult  the  IP  camera  and/or  recorder  installation
manuals for configuration instructions, or contact the camera or
recorder manufacturer.

Which camera and NVT LEDs are on?

Can you ping the camera?

Test  if  unicast  traffic  passes  smoothly  but  multicast  traffic  is
blocked. (See page 7.)

NVT has developed a Console Utility that can be downloaded from
www.nvt.com.  Once  installed  on  any Windows  PC,  the  applica-
tionscours the network for NVT devices, and reports each of their
MAC addresses, as well as the MAC addresses of any other NVT
devices within its joined group.

Additional network tools, such as Packet Sniffers or Traffic gen-
erators  are  available  from  other  sources  such  as  LAN  Shark,
LANTraffic, etc.

NVT customer support is available for consultation from 8:00 AM
to 5:30 PM PST Monday through Friday. In addition, emergency
after-hours callback support is available.

equipment  generates,  uses,  and  can  radiate  radio  frequency
energy  and,  if  not  installed  and  used  in  accordance  with  the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communi-
cations. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur  in  a  particular  installation.  If  this  equipment  does  cause
harmful  interference  to  radio  or  television  reception,  which  can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and the 
receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult  the  dealer  or  an  experienced  radio/TV  technician 
for help.
