9.1Testing the network connection
The ping command can be used to check the connection between two IP addresses. This allows testing whether a device is active in the network.
1.Open the DOS command prompt.
2.Type ping followed by the IP address of the device.
If the device is found, the response appears as " Reply from ... ", followed by the number of bytes sent and the transmission time in milliseconds. Otherwise, the device cannot be accessed via the network. This might be because:
–The device is not properly connected to the network. Check the cable connections in this case.
–The device is not correctly integrated into the network. Check the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.
9.2Communication with Terminal Program
Data Terminal
If a camera cannot be found in the network or the connection to the network is interrupted, you can connect a data terminal to the camera for initial setup and for setting important parameters. The data terminal consists of a computer with a terminal program.
You require a serial transmission cable to connect to the computer.
The communications accessory included with Windows can be used as the terminal program.
1.Disconnect the camera from the Ethernet network before working with the terminal program.
2.Connect the serial interface of the camera using any available serial interface on the computer.
