SECTION 3: SYSTEM SETUP
A “Reply from ..” message received from a ping indicates that an active device with that IP address exists on the network,
and new devices with that address shouldn’t be attached to that network without rst changing the network settings of the
device. Use the manufacturer’s recommended procedure for changing the address before attaching it to the LAN.
NOTE
For DIGIOP® Black cameras and encoders
To change the IP address before connecting it to the surveillance LAN:
- Determine the new IP address for the device using the procedure outlined in section 3.2 below.
- Setup the device temporarily on a LAN where 192.168.0.100 is not in use and power it on.
- Install the IPAdmin Tool on a computer on the LAN where the device is temporarily located
(see Section 3.3)
- Use the IPAdmin Tool to setup the new IP address, subnet mask, and gateway for the device (see Section 3.5 below)
- Power o the device and disconnect it from the LAN where it was temporarily setup. It will retain the new network settings you
congured it with.
3. Use the ping command to verify that the static IP addresses of other devices in your surveillance system won’t conict with
devices already installed on the network.
3.2 Determine the network settings for each IP device
Consult with your LAN network administrator to obtain a list of network settings for each IP device, including the NVR or hDVR
and all cameras and encoders, you will attach to your LAN. You must use a static IP address for your surveillance system to ensure
connectability with the NVR or hDVR. The IP Device Summary table in Appendix E may be useful for logging your network settings.
To determine (or verify) which IP addresses are available on your surveillance network, use the ping command as described in
section 3.1 to test each address. Also, determine the subnet mask, gateway, and the DNS address (if used). The subnet mask and
gateway may be the same as the computer you use to access the network, and can be found with the ipcong command in the
command prompt window.
Example: Typical use of ipcong in Windows XP
When an adequate number of unassigned IP addresses is determined, continue with the next section.
