A3-1 GigE Network Interface Card (NIC)
A gigabit network interface card (NIC) is attached to your computer and
ready to use. Ideally it is a PCI-Express NIC to bring out the best data
throughput, e.g.
Intel Pro/1000 Pt with Intel 82572GI chipset .
Note: It is absolutely essential that the NIC is Gigabit compatible. Such cards should be
designated with a maximum data throughput of 1000 Mbps. Furthermore it is important to
know which kind of PCI interface the NIC uses. The PCI-Express interface allows a faster and
more stable data transfer than ordinary PCI interfaces. Finally, the NICs vary in the used
chipset. Strongly recommended are chipsets from Intel.
There are different ways to connect one or several PCO GigE cameras to a
computer. Only some of them are introduced here:
One camera system:
•
Point to Point connection:
NIC and camera are connected via a patch cable directly.
Before you turn on the camera set the
NIC IP address to
192.168.144.10 manually. Otherwise the connection between
NIC and camera will not succeed, because both, camera and
NIC, have to be located to the same subnet. The PCO GigE
camera is set to the persistent IP address 192.168.144.200 by
default, if no DHCP server is available. Use the tool “PCO GigE
Configuration Tool” to change the persistent IP address (see
chapter 1.4). The camera has to be reset, if the persistent IP
address was changed.
Several cameras:
•
Via a switch without a DHCP Server:
Camera and NIC IP addresses have to be set manually.
•
Via a switch with DHCP Server:
NIC and cameras obtain the IP addresses automatically by a
DHCP-Server.
•
Via several NIC’s at one PC:
Camera and NIC IP addresses have to be set manually. Each
camera-NIC pair needs a separate network/subnet.
