For ease of installation, trunk video and network data cabling always go together.
In order to use each VIS3I-328 unit in a network, you need to set up its
configuration file using the VisiPC Configurator software. As an example, the
changes that are required to the VisiPC Configurator software screens for each of
the three units shown in Fig. 13 are shown in Tab. 23, Tab. 24 and Tab. 24. Each
unit configuration should be saved in a separate new file. Full details of VisiPC
operation are detailed in its User Manual.
