Ethernet address is initially 0.0.0.0 when cable is inserted but after a minute becomes 169.x.x.x.
Cause
Solution

assigned, Check the network path from the TANDBERG FieldView
Device to the DHCP server for continuity.
No Ethernet connection

Device Ethernet port you may use either a crossover cable, or, a
hub/switch and 2 straight cables.
Low throughput over Ethernet connection
Cause
Solution
Hub or switch has incorrectly negotiated the
Ethernet connection speed and or duplex.
Throughput can be heavily limited if the Ethernet connection
is incorrectly negotiated e.g. switch is set for 10/half-duplex
but TANDBERG FieldView Device is operating at 10/fullduplex.
The video may appear blocked and distorted.
Check switch settings.
Changes to static IP address settings not recognized
Cause
Solution
A power cycle is required after changing the Static
IP address settings.
Power TANDBERG FieldView Device off and on and then check the
network status. See
Checking wireless signal
