Visionary - Hardware Installation and Configuration Manual
25
FTP Port 21 is used in conjunction with the TCP Port for EAS
operation, custom display operation, and configuring the
Visionary. Port 21 should be accessible (not blocked) between
the Visionary, the EAS encoder/decoder, and any PC containing
Visionary or EAS software.
6. On the
General
tab of the Visionary
configuration software, enter the desired
IP Address
. This is the network address
that the Visionary will be set to, and
should be assigned by your network
administrator.
7. Enter the
Subnet Mask
, as specified by
your network administrator. In
combination with the IP address, the
subnet mask helps determine which
addresses the Visionary can contact
directly, and which addresses must be
contacted through the default gateway.
8. Enter the address for the
Default
Gateway
, as specified by your network
administrator. The gateway is used to
access IP addresses outside of the subnet (non-local addresses). The default gateway
is not required if the Visionary will not communicate with hardware outside of the
subnet, but should be set to an unused IP address within the subnet.
9. From the
Video Format
pull-down menu, select the default video format for the
Visionary. When the Visionary is powered on, if no video input is detected, the
Visionary will output the default video format. Once video is detected at the input, the
Visionary will lock to the incoming video format.
10. Set the
TCP Port
to
59901
, unless your network administrator specifies a different
setting for the TCP port. This is the main communication port for the Visionary and is
used for configuration and control, including EAS control.
If no COM port is available on the host computer, the host
computer can be re-configured for an IP address within the
10.1.65 subnet (e.g.: 10.1.65.77). On the Main tab, select the
ETHERNET radio button and enter the default Visionary
address of 10.1.65.80 in the Visionary IP Address box.
