Select TAB
The Select TAB allows the user to select the relevant IP Unit in order to change its settings or to upgrade its
version.
1. From the Unit selection list, select the relevant IP product. In case of multiple sites, it is advised to use
the filter under the Unit Type field. Click on any column tab to sort names by that definition in ascending
or descending order.
2. Once the desired unit has been selected, notice the icon, indicating a password protected unit. In
order to change the selected unit’s settings on the local PC that is running the VNSetup, a unique
password must be entered. The screen will display how many units there are and how many of those
are password protected (locked). A remote unit, as in systems using network routers and VLANS
(virtual LANs), will not display in the Unit selection list. If you want to select a remote unit, manually
enter the IP address in the IP address of remote unit field and click Find remote unit . The remote unit is
added to the list.
Note: This is correct for BIOS from version 1.0.10.86 and later (ViconNet version 3 and higher).
3. Password authentication
There are two authentication options. You can either authenticate a specific unit, by entering its
password, or use a Nucleus authentication, allowing you access to all units in the network.
3.1. Unit authentication - On the Unit password field, enter the unit password and press the Add
password button. Once approved, notice that the icon has disappeared and the user may
proceed to next phase. The password will be saved on this unit.
Note: The unit password is supplied on the sticker with the MAC address in the camera package.
3.2. Nucleus authentication - On the Nucleus admin login field, enter a valid Nucleus IP address
and password and press the Login button. Once approved, notice that the icon has
disappeared from all the units currently connected to the selected Nucleus and the user may
proceed to next phase.
4. Press the Select button on the lower section of the screen.
Note: You MUST click the Select button to add the unit to the list; verify that it is added to the list.
5. The selected unit appears on the Selected unit section on the top of the screen and settings can be
changed.
