PROGRAMMING

VIEWSTATION NETWORK CONFIGURATION

After you make all connections, you have to configure the viewstation to work on the network. To configure the viewstation, you need the following information. You can obtain this information from your network administrator.

¥Unique viewstation name: (Examples are Pelcovs1, Pelcovs2, Pelcovs3, etc. This is the default naming scheme.)

¥Unique IP address: (Examples are 100.0.0.201, 100.0.0.202, 100.0.0.203, etc. This is the default addressing scheme.) Each viewstation is identified by a logical IP address over a local area network (LAN). Each requires a unique IP address for communication using TCP/IP protocol. The IP address identifies a systemÕs location on the network and must be globally unique and have a uniform format.

¥Network subnet mask: This must be the same on all recorders and viewstations. (For example, 255.0.0.0 is the default.)

¥Computer workgroup name: This must be the same on all recorders and viewstations. (For example, DX9000_GROUP is the default.)
