Ethernet address (Ethernet versions only)
You may need to ask your network administrator for advice about setting up
the Ethernet connection.
Ethernet set up is not affected by cold booting the VTR4.
8.1
Connection
The Ethernet link uses a 10 base-T connection on an RJ45 connector. The VTR4 is
usually connected to a network switch (or hub or router). It is also possible to
connect it direct into the network port on a PC by using a crossover cable.
8.2
IP address
The VTR4 needs an IP address to communicate over Ethernet. There are two
ways to get an IP address; either programmed into the unit or using DHCP.
Most networks use a DHCP server. If there is a PC on the network, you may be
able to find out whether a PC on the same network uses DCHP as follows:
i.
Go to
Control Panel
ii.
Select
Network Connections
iii.
Right click on
Local Area Connection
. Select
Properties
iv.
From the list, select
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP
) and select
Properties
.
If
Obtain an IP address automatically
is set, then DHCP is probably used.
However, there may be an alternative fixed IP address on the
Alternative
Configuration
tab.
You can find out what IP address is being used by a PC at any time by following
the steps below:
i.
Go to
Control Panel
ii.
Select
Network Connections
iii.
Right click on
Local Area Connection
. Select
Status
iv.
Select the
Support
tab. The IP address is displayed.
Note:
These instructions assume
Windows™
7 is installed on your PC. If you use
a different operating system, the procedure may be different.
When using a fixed IP address, you must ensure that you use an IP address that
is not being used by any other device on the network. It is usual to keep the first
three numbers of the IP address the same as other devices and to change only
the last number. For example, if you have a network consisting of a PC (IP
address 192.168.1.35) and two VTR4s, you might give them addresses
192.168.1.201 and 192.168.1.202.
