2 Installation
2.1 Installation Preview
There are 3 mains steps required to perform a successful installation:
Hardware installation
Software installation
Network configuration
Hardware installation consists of connecting cables to the NDC including network, video, and power cables.
Software installation consists of the installation of software that is necessary to properly view the video from the NDC
or to configure the NDC itself. The software includes:
IP Installer -- a utility for locating devices and configuring network settings on a LAN.
Component Installer -- installs all ActiveX components used by the device for things such as video display and
configuration.
Macromedia Flash Player -- necessary for displaying some components of the Web UI.
The following are not necessary, but may be used for convenience:
Recording Software -- displaying and recording up to 16 channels simultaneously. Both the MPEG-4 and MJPEG
devices are supported.
Xvid -- a MPEG-4 codec. If no other MPEG-4 codecs (ie. DivX, 3ivX, ffdshow, etc.) are installed on your computer,
the Component installer will install this for you.
QuickTime or VLC -- though not necessary, this can be used for viewing the MPEG-4 stream without a Web
browser.
Network configuration consists of modifying the network settings for the NDC in order to successfully connect to the
device.
