IV. Assigning IP Address and Configuring the Administrator’s Data * Important * To access a VersaCam, you first have to assign an appropriate IP address. When you assign an IP address to a VersaCam, make sure to use an unassigned IP address – do not use the default or example IP address. Terminology IP Address An IP address is an identification code for computers and devices on a TCP/IP network. Networks using TCP/IP protocol route messages based upon the IP address of

A. Connecting a VersaCam IC Series to a PC 1) Connecting a VersaCam IC-360 to the Internet or a LAN. • You may use a standard Ethernet cable (white colored connectors) to connect a VersaCam IC-360 to the Internet or a LAN. With this connection, a remote user may not access a VersaCam IC-360 before the local user configures their network settings. 2) Connecting a VersaCam IC Series to a PC. • You may use a crossover cable (red colored connectors) to directly connect a VersaC

Data loss number may be from 0% to 99%. This is a normal reply. If the statistic shows ‘100% loss’, you should check to see if the network lines and connection status are stable, if the IP address which is assigned to VersaCam is available, and whether the PC you are using has the same local network’s IP address as the VersaCam. The same local IP address on a “C” grade network means that the first 3 sets of numbers are same but the fourth is different. For example, 192.168.1.2 and 192.
