Using the Web Interface

The Web interface offers the most intuitive way to configure the SVxx54DX4I, as it provides a Java-based VNC client that can be used to control the host computer from a remote location, as well as support for any industry-standard HTML Web browser.

You can access the Web interface by opening your Web browser and entering the IP address of the SVxx54DX4I you wish to access/ configure. The IP address will be either the address assigned by your DHCP server as identified in the previous section, or 192.168.1.123 (if your network uses static IP addressing).

Using SVxx54DX4I’s web interface requires a browser, with cookies and JavaScript enabled. To start the Java VNC client, login to the Web configuration interface and click on the thumbnail of the desktop on the Home menu, or click on the Connect button, located in the Main Menu.

You may need to upgrade Java support in your browser; however, most modern browsers come with a version of Java that is compatible with this application. The Java VNC client makes a connection back to the SVxx54DX4I unit over port 5900 (by default) or 15900 (if encrypted). The encrypted connection is a standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encrypted link that encrypts all data from the session, including the actual video pictures.
