10.1
Testing the network connection
The ping command can be used to check the connection 
between two IP addresses. This allows testing whether a device 
is active in the network.
1.
Open the DOS command prompt.
2.
Type ping followed by the IP address of the device.
If the device is found, the response appears as " Reply from ... ", 
followed by the number of bytes sent and the transmission time 
in milliseconds. Otherwise, the device cannot be accessed via 
the network. This might be because:
The device is not properly connected to the network. 
Check the cable connections in this case.
The device is not correctly integrated into the network. 
Check the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address. 
10.2
Communication with Terminal Program
Data Terminal
If a camera cannot be found in the network or the connection to 
the network is interrupted, you can connect a data terminal to 
the camera for initial setup and for setting important 
parameters. The data terminal consists of a computer with a 
terminal program.
You require a serial transmission cable with a 9-pin Sub-D plug 
to connect to the computer.
The communications accessory included with Windows can be 
used as the terminal program.
1.
Disconnect the camera from the Ethernet network before 
working with the terminal program.
2.
Connect the serial interface of the camera using any 
available serial interface on the computer.
