LAN connections

About LAN connection

The SA-DV6000 supports both wired and wireless LAN cards for connection directly to a Client PC, to a local Intranet or to the Internet. Other than the use of a LAN card, the SA-DV6000 is also equipped with a LAN terminal for LAN connection. When using a LAN card, however, the LAN terminal will be disabled. Up to 10 clients can access the VTR simultaneously, all viewing the video stream. If the client is a media server or equivalent, numerous clients will be able to view streaming data via the server. (The number of client connections allowed differs depending on the server.)

A list of the currently supported network interface cards can be found on Page 4. The SA-DV6000 supports:

Both static and dynamic (DHCP) IP addressing

User selectable user name and password

HTTP and RTSP port setting

Connections via Windows Media Player, Quick Time Player, Internet Explorer, or JVC’s Streamproducer

WLAN Ad Hoc mode setting

WEP with 128 bit encryption

NOTES

Operation is only guaranteed for Windows 2000 (Professional or Server) and Windows XP (Home or Professional)

Only Internet Explorer 5.0 or later is supported

Only Windows Media Player 7.1 or later is supported (Not compatible with WM9.)

If a mouse is clicked while streaming data is being played using an application such as Streamproducer, the audio may be affected by noise.

If the noise becomes irritating, open the “Sound & Multimedia” property from the Windows Control Panel and set the sound of “Windows Explorer Start Navigation” of “Sound Events” to off.
