Hardware Connections Between Video Servers

 

A VideoJet X10 SN with a camera connected to it can be used as a sender and a compatible

 

MPEG-4 hardware decoder (such as the VIP XD) with a connected monitor as a receiver using

 

an Ethernet network connection. In this way it is possible to cover long distances without the

 

need for major installation or cabling work.

 

 

i

NOTICE!

The sender and receiver must be located in the same subnet to establish a hardware

connection.

 

 

 

Installation

 

Compatible video servers are designed to connect to one another automatically, provided

 

they are correctly configured. They only need to be part of a closed network. Proceed as

 

follows to install the units:

 

1.

Connect the units to the closed network using Ethernet cables.

 

2. Connect them to the power supply.

 

 

 

NOTICE!

i

Make sure that the units are configured for the network environment and that the correct IP

address for the remote location to be contacted in the event of an alarm is set on the Alarm

Connections configuration page (see Section 5.27 Advanced Mode: Alarm Connections,

 

page 58).

 

 

 

Connecting

 

There are three options for establishing a connection between a sender and a compatible

 

receiver in a closed network:

 

an alarm,

 

– a terminal program, or

 

Internet Explorer.

NOTICE!

Connecting with a Web browser is described in the manual of the relevant unit that is to be

used as the receiver, for example VIP XD.

 

 

 

Connecting on Alarm

With the appropriate configuration, a connection between a sender and a receiver is made automatically when an alarm is triggered (see Section 5.27 Advanced Mode: Alarm Connections, page 58). After a short time the live video image from the sender appears on the connected monitor.

This option can also be used to connect a sender and a compatible receiver using a switch connected to the alarm input. You do not need a computer to make the connection in this case.
