Genie Monochrome Series-GigE Vision Camera Network Overview & Tools

91
Persistent IP

This configuration is only suggested if the user fully controls the assignment of IP addresses on the network.

The GigE Vision camera is forced a static IP address. The NIC IP address must use the same subnet otherwise
the camera is not accessible.

If the Genie camera is connected to a network with a different subnet, it cannot be accessed.

The DALSA Network Configuration Tool is used to set a persistent IP address. Refer to the DALSA Network
Imaging manual.

An example of a Persistent IP address assignment on a class B network:

NIC Subnet = 192.168.1.1

Subnet Mask = 255.255.0.0

Persistent IP = 192.168.1.2

Default Gateway = 0.0.0.0

Warning: an incorrect IP address assignment might make it impossible to connect to the camera. In such a case
the DALSA Network Configuration tool includes a function to recover a Genie camera with an unknown
persistent IP and set the Genie to the factory default setting, i.e. DHCP/LLA mode. The camera MAC address
must be known to use this function.

For GigE Vision applications the FORCEIP command is used to force a new persistent IP or to change the IP
configuration protocol. The Genie MAC address must be known to use the FORCEIP command.

The following illustration shows a functional computer setup with three NIC ports, but no DHCP server. Two
NIC ports are used for private GigE Vision networks. The first uses the default LLA mode for IP addresses,
while the second NIC and the cameras connected to it are configured with persistent IP addresses. An
application on the computer can control each camera, on each subnet, without conflict.
