Powering on VPort 2140 Video Server

After all cables are correctly and firmly connected, turn on all peripheral devices, including cameras, sensors, and alarm devices. And then connect the VPort 2140 to the power supply.

After being powered on, the VPort will automatically detect if an external modem is connected to the modem port. As soon as an external modem is detected, the CONNECT LED will blink periodically. If no modem is detected, the VPort will assume that the included null modem cable is connected to perform system configuration. Both CONNECT and SERIAL LEDs will show as “steady on” until the dial-up connection over the null modem is established.
