Although there are no front panel controls, the DGy 201 includes the following networking and control capabilities:

RS-232capability for command-line control. The RS-232 serial port connects to an ASCII terminal, any computer with a serial port or an external device such as a touchpad. Commands are sent from the terminal or computer to the DGy 201. In Chapter 6, refer to the “Command Set List” section for details.

The Ethernet port (10/100BaseT) allows multiple DGy 201 systems to be connected to a local area network (LAN), or directly to a PC properly equipped with a network card. Note that direct connection requires the use of an Ethernet hub or Ethernet crossover cable. This method allows you to use a Telnet session or a standard web browser to access DGy 201’s internal Web Control Panel (GUI).

Telnet and web server control capability.

Remote storage / replay capability. Files can be transferred using the standard FTP protocol or with the Remote Disk Mount option to a remote computer or RAID file server (Windows XP OS using Allegro server software or Linux OS). Typical compression ratios will allow users to transfer 30 fps at 1280 x 1024 over a dedicated 100 Base-T Ethernet link. Replay can then be accomplished on the remote computer independent of the DGy 201 recorder.
