3. CONFIGURATION

The Vega Wireless Camera is configured through its built-in Web-based configuration (e.g. Internet Explorer, Netscape, Firefox or other web browsers). You can therefore use any device (PC, PDA) equipped with a NETWORK INTERFACE CARD and an Internet Browser. This chapter describes the necessary checks to access the configuration, together with the main configuration menus for the installation and use of the Vega Wireless Camera.

3.1 PC CONFIGURATION

System requirements:

•1 PC with a 10/100BT Ethernet NETWORK INTERFACE CARD

•1 UTP Cat 5 LAN Cable

•1 web browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape, Firefox, etc.)

The default IP address of the Vega Wireless Camera is 192.168.30.1.

To proceed with the camera configuration, the computer’s IP address must correspond to the same LAN network: 192.168.30.xxx

To access the configuration menu of the computer Network Interface Card, follow these steps.

Configure the TCP/IP protocol of the PC Network Interface Card with an IP address corresponding to the Vega Wireless Camera’s network (e.g. 192.168.30.3). Do not use the address 192.168.30.1 (already used by the Vega Wireless Camera).

Power the Vega Wireless Camera and verify the starting up sequence described in the preceding sections of this manual.

Connect the computer to the LAN port in the rear panel of the camera by using the Ethernet cable found in the package.

The two small LEDs on the LAN port are supplied for future use and could therefore stay OFF.

In case of problems please refer to your system administrator for a correct setting of the computer’s IP address.
