VICONNET CONFIGURATION
Network Considerations
The VN-755IP 4-Channel IP Camera can be connected to any ViconNet network. Kollector Elite Recorders
and ViconNet Workstations can be used for live viewing and recording of network-streamed video. A network
can be as simple as a single VN-755IP 4-Channel Camera connected to a ViconNet Workstation or can be
complex with the addition of several networks interconnected via WAN.
When adding a VN-755IP 4-Channel IP Camera to the ViconNet network, the following items must be
considered:
•
The number of cameras on a switch with respect to switch capabilities and system bandwidth mapping.
•
Bandwidth limitations on ports connected to workstations (using 100 or 1000 Mbps).
•
Workstation capabilities such as processing speed and disk write speed.
•
Storage size and location types including local Workstation recording, attached SCSI RAID and
integrated NAS/SAN devices.
Refer to the network diagrams that follow for sample configurations.
Configuring ViconNet (IP/LAN)
The VN-755IP camera is shipped with two CDs, VN-755IP Software (includes VNSetup) and
VN-100 Viewer. These CDs contain the software needed to setup your IP system.
Be sure the ViconNet Workstation meets the minimum requirements, is running the ViconNet application
(VNSetup.exe) and has the proper camera driver. Refer to appropriate ViconNet documentation.
The default parameters on the IP dome are:
IP address: [1.1.1.1].
Nucleus IP address: [1.1.1.2].
The DHCP option (obtains an IP address automatically) is ON by default. To change the setup to operate in
a network using fixed IP addresses, the option "Specify IP address" should be selected (see the section”
Using the ViconNet application" that follows).
On first startup, the camera will attempt to establish connection to the Nucleus with the default address
(1.1.1.2). Connecting it to an active Nucleus is done through the VNSetup utility.
