VS-61 Installation Guide Rev 05.12 Page 3 of 17 Essential Trading Systems Corp
Overview
ETC’s VS-61 is a desktop VoIP device capable of transmitting on one channel and receiving on
one channel of audio. It is designed to provide continuous, multi-cast, RTP audio to users for use
in virtually any multi-cast audio application. The exclusive design enables the VS-61 to be virtually
“dropped in” to any standards based multicast IP environment with no specialized or proprietary
peripherals. The VS-61 device is configured via standard web browser or a management &
discovery utility. The VS-61 is designed to be powered via standard ethernet connection. If power
is not provided by the ethernet connection, an optional 5VDC local power supply may be used.
ETC’s VS-61 can be accessed by two methods:
•
Method One: The ETC Discovery Utility Setup file, located on the Utility disc, can
be used on networks where broadcasting is allowed. Using the ETC Discovery
Utility is preferable, as it simplifies installation and troubleshooting (if needed).
•
Method Two: A standard web browser (Internet Explorer 7 or higher) can be used
to enter an IP address directly without broadcasting onto the network.
Both of these access methods will be outlined separately to the point where you sign into the IP
address 198.162.0.206 (default address). The rest of the manual will guide you through
configuring the VS-61 settings within its internal browser.
The VS-61 must be installed on the same
network as the computer you are configuring it from.
The application software versions used in this guide are Windows XP Pro, Internet Explorer 8, ETC
Discovery Utility version 2.3.0, and VS-61 firmware version 3.4.9 If you are using any other
versions of these products your windows may look different. Linux is noted in this manual,
although the VS-61 has not been tested with it
.
