Gige Server Verification; Gige Server Status - Teledyne m640 User Manual

GigE Server Verification

After a successful Genie Nano Framework package installation, the GigE Server icon is visible in the
desktop taskbar tray area (note that in Windows 7 the icon remains hidden until a camera is
connected). After connecting a camera (see following section), allow a few seconds for the GigE
Server status to update. The Nano camera must be on the same subnet as the NIC to be
recognized by the GigE Server.
GigE Server
Tray Icon:
The normal GigE server tray
icon when the Genie device is
found. It will take a few
seconds for the GigE Server to
refresh its state after the Genie
has obtained an IP address.
If you place your mouse cursor on this icon, the GigE Server will display the number of GigE Vision
devices found by your PC. Right click the icon and select status to view information about those
devices. See Troubleshooting for more information.

GigE Server Status

Once the Genie Nano is assigned an IP address (its Status LED is steady blue) the GigE server tray
icon will not have a red X through it, indicating that the Nano device was found. It might take a few
seconds for the GigE Server to refresh its state after the Nano has obtained an IP address.
Right-click the GigE Server tray icon to open the following menu.
Click on Show Status to open a window listing all devices connected to the host system. Each GigE
device is listed by name along with important information such as the assigned IP address and
device MAC address. The screen shot below shows a connected Nano with no networking problems.
In the event that the device is physically connected, but the Sapera GigE Server icon is indicating
that the connected device is not recognized, click Scan Network to restart the discovery process.
Note that the GigE server periodically scans the network automatically to refresh its state. See
Troubleshooting for network problems.
