❶Fit or replace a lens (if required). The lens is fitted by

turning it in a clockwise direction.

❷Note the Serial number on the underside of the unit. You need to know this to set the IP address.

Serial number same as Ethernet address; e.g.

Windows only - Start a DOS window and type in the commands

UNIX only - Type these commands in the command

shown below:

Syntax:

arp -s <Camera IP address> <Ethernet address> <my PC IP address> ping -t <Camera IP address>

Example:

arp -s <IP address> <Ethernet address> temp ping <IP address>

Example:

arp -s 172.21.1.200 00-40-8c-10-00-86 172.21.1.193

 

arp -s 172.21.1.200 00:40:8c:10:00:86 temp

ping -t 172.21.1.200

 

ping 172.21.1.200
