Use a RJ-45 Ethernet cable to connect the Network Frame
Grabber Eth 1 port to a 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet network.
For best performance, connect the VGA2Ethernet to a 1000
Base-T Ethernet network. You can also improve performance
by using Ethernet cables with 4 pairs of wires. Cat5e or Cat6
cables are preferred to Cat5.
The network must be running the TCP/IP protocol. Ideally the
Network Frame Grabber should be able to connect to the
Internet.
You can optionally connect the Network Frame Grabber
directly to a video capture workstation 1-gigabit Ethernet port.

Connect the power adapter to the Network Frame Grabber.
The Network Frame Grabber powers on and the LEDs go
through their power on sequence:
• When power is first connected, the blue LED lights up.
• A few seconds later the green LED lights up.
• After about 20 seconds, the blue LED turns off leaving the
green LED on to indicate that the Network Frame Grabber
has started up and can start capturing images.
