RV2 Video Processor
In the diagram above, a single RZ connects to the RV2. The fiber optic cables are
color coded to prevent wiring errors.
The RV2 Video Processor connects to one RZ processor via orange fiber optic
cables from the back of the RV2 to the dedicated RV2 port on the back of the RZ
(labeled ‘To RV2’).
The gray camera power cable connects the ‘Power-1’ port on the RV2 to the VGAC
camera. A GigE cable connects the ‘Camera-1’ port on the RV2 to the VGAC.
An Ethernet cable connects the ‘Network’ port on the RV2 to either a local area
network or directly to the PC running OpenEx.
Optionally a VGA cable is connected from the ‘Monitor’ port on the RV2 to an
external monitor.

The diagram above illustrates possible connections from the RV2 to a PC (1) or
network (2). Connect the Ethernet cable to the RV2 port labeled Network.
Configuring
the
RV2
Default configuration settings allow the RV2 to begin streaming video immediately.
The RV2 supports the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration) protocol for automatic
configuration of network parameters. Once connected to an active network, the RV2
will attempt to lease an IP address.
The
DHCP
Protocol
DHCP or “Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol” is a protocol used by networked
devices (clients) to obtain various parameters necessary for the clients to operate in
an IP (Internet Protocol) network. By using this protocol, system administration
workload greatly decreases, and devices can be added to the network with minimal
or no manual configuration.
DHCP automates the assignment of IP addresses, subnet masks, default gateway,
and other IP parameters. Three modes for allocating IP addresses exist: Dynamic,
Reserved, and Manual. The RV2 relies on Dynamic mode for its IP configuration. If
no DHCP server responds, enable manual configuration mode with the following static
IP configuration:
