SECTION 2: INSTALLATION AND SETUP
In the example shown above, the message “
Reply from 192.168.1.200: ..
” indicates that your PC can reach the
device with that IP address, and that address is in use (i.e., you cannot use it for your camera).
d.
Since the ping test of the IP address we tried showed the address was in use, try another number between 1 and 254.
For example, let’s ping 192.168.1.201. At the DOS prompt, enter:
ping 192.168.1.201
e.
In this test, the message “Request timed out” indicates that your PC cannot reach the device with that IP address, and
that address is probably not in use. Enter this number into Table 1. If this test indicated that this IP address is in use, try
other IP addresses using the steps above until an unused address is found.
Check LAN for default IP address compatibility
Because all DIGIOP Black cameras and encoders are factory configured with the static IP address 192.168.0.100, check the LAN
before connecting your camera to ensure that network conflicts won’t occur.
At a Microsoft Windows computer attached to the LAN subnet where the camera will be connected, open a Command Prompt
window and enter:
ping 192.168.0.100
The “Request timed out” response indicates that the IP address is not in use and the camera can be connected without causing
errors.
Attach your camera to the network and power it on
Apply power to the camera. When the camera powers on, it performs an internal initialization, then establishes a connection to the
LAN. Wait until the initialization process completes before continuing. It may take up to 3 minutes for your camera to initialize.
