2-3 Setting IP Address for this Camera Using the "VN-C205U Setup Tool"
Set the IP address for VN-C205 using the "VN-C205U Setup Tool" that has been installed.
(This "VN-C205U Setup Tool" only allows connection of VN-C205.)
Cautions
• Upon turning on the power of this camera, it may take about 60 seconds before it can be
connected to the PC.
• At the factory, DHCP is enabled for VN-C205.
• Using DHCP
JVC does not recommend operating VN-C205 with the DHCP function enabled because a
different IP address may be assigned upon the renewal of the leasing contract. The DHCP
function of VN-C205 is included with the aim to simplify installation/setting procedures.
Note
To connect to a VN-C205 for which DHCP has been enabled, the DHCP server must exist in an
environment where the assigned IP address and MAC address are clearly defined. If the DHCP
server is not found, it will automatically start up using the static IP address after 60 seconds.
1.
Select [Start]
[Programs]
[V.NETWORKS]
up the "VN-C205U Setup Tool".
Notes
To view the IP address of the connected camera, click "Search".
• [TimeOut] is for setting the time for searching (1 to 30 seconds). If no IP address is displayed
upon searching, change the value to a longer time and search again.
• If the [V.Networks] on the LAN has a different subnet from that of the PC, connection may not
be possible even if the IP address of the camera is found via search. Change the IP address
of the PC to an appropriate value and connect the camera.
