Section 1: Getting Started VN-COMMANDER User Guide
Introduction
What is VN-COMMANDER?
VN-COMMANDER and VN-COMMANDER CONNECT
are Microsoft Windows-based software applications, used
to control the VN-QUANTUM and VN-QUANTUM
CONNECT Image Display Processors. These products
form part of the VISIONETWORK (VN) range.
Under VN-COMMANDER control, the VN-QUANTUM and
VN-QUANTUM CONNECT Processors can display multiple
image sources on a target display. External analog video
sources (e.g. PAL, NTSC or SECAM formats) and external
analog and digital graphics sources are supported. In
addition, the VN-QUANTUM processor supports the use of
internal or network-based image files (e.g. BMP, JPG, GIF or
PNG formats) or RGB computer graphics captured using
Electrosonic’s VN-GLIMPSE technology.
For clarity, the term VN-COMMANDER and VNQUANTUM will be used throughout this User guide and
are interchangeable with VN-QUANTUM CONNECT and
VN-COMMANDER CONNECT.
The feature set supported by VN-COMMANDER and VNCOMMANDER CONNECT are slightly different. This user
guide covers both software applications. Where features
differ, this will be made clear.
VN-COMMANDER will not operate with a VNQUANTUM-CONNECT processor.
VN-COMMANDER CONNECT will not operate with a
VN-QUANTUM processor.
2 - I456GB issue 8
VN-COMMANDER User Guide Section 1: Getting Started
Scene Control Each source is displayed in a fully resizable ‘window’,
allowing multiple sources to be placed in any position on
the display.
VN-COMMANDER uses ‘scenes’ to record different
source layouts on the display. Scenes can then be recalled
in any order using a customizable user interface or in a
pre-defined order at specific time intervals using the
built-in AutoPlay function.
Scenes can also be recalled remotely using via RS-232 (see
Appendix B) or Ethernet (consult Electrosonic for details).
Co nt ro l of
External Devices
VN-COMMANDER can be set up to include commands
which are transmitted (over serial or Ethernet links) when
a particular scene or source is selected. These commands
can be used to provide automatic control of external
devices such as disc players or matrix switchers.
Hardware Requirements
Computer
Specification
To ensure that VN-COMMANDER functions correctly
and reliably, it must be installed on a computer that meets
or exceeds the following criteria:
Operating System Windows NT4 (SP6) Windows 2000/ XP
Processor Speed 200MHz 450MHz or higher
Memory (RAM) 64MB 128MB or higher
Hard Disk Free Space 30MB >30MB
Graphics 1024x768, 65K colors (16-bit) 1024x768, 16.7M colors (32-bit)
Network Card (Ethernet) 10BASE-T 100BASE-T
Minimum Recommended
These are the minimum requirements for VN-COMMANDER
only; if you intend running additional software applications,
these applications may require a higher specification.
I456GB issue 8 3
Section 1: Getting Started VN-COMMANDER User Guide
Image Processing
Hardware
VN-COMMANDER is designed to be used in
conjunction with a VN-QUANTUM Image Display
Processor.
The VN-QUANTUM hardware comprises a card
frame into which various input/output cards are
installed.
For further details on the VN-QUANTUM, including
connector pin-outs and processing capability, please
refer to the VN-QUANTUM User Guide (part no.
I455GB).
Except for defining an IP Address, it is not necessary to
perform any set-up procedures using the VN-
QUANTUM itself. All other system configuration
is achieved through VN-COMMANDER.
Software Installation
~
Insert the VN-QUANTUM System Disc into the
CD-ROM drive on the computer.
After afew seconds a disc browser should
automatically start.
~
Choose the Install option in the VN-COMMANDER
section. The on-screen instructions will guide you
through the rest of the installation process.
If the disc browser does not run automatically or if you have the
Windows auto-play feature disabled, proceed as follows:
4 - I456GB issue 8
VN-COMMANDER User Guide Section 1: Getting Started
~
Click on the Windows Start button, and select Run from the pop-up menu.
The Run dialog box will appear.
~
In the Open box, type in the following command:
d :\setup.exe
where ‘d’ is the letter identifying your CD-ROM drive.
~
Click on the OK button (or press the Enter key) to run the disc browser.
I456GB issue 8 5
Section 1: Getting Started VN-COMMANDER User Guide
Hardware Configuration
Connection to a VN-QUANTUM Processor
The VN-COMMANDER computer communicates with a
VN-QUANTUM via an Ethernet link. This can either be
‘direct’ or ‘indirect’ as shown in Fig.1. Connection to a
single processor can use either method, but multiple
processors must use the indirect method (i.e. via a hub).
Direct Connection This method uses a single cable is connected between the
computer’s Network port and the VN-QUANTUM (see
Fig.1a). The cable must be a ‘crossover’ (or ‘null modem’)
type; a normal ‘straight-through’ cable will not work.
The computer’s Network port must be capable of
supporting a 100BASE-T connection as required by the
VN-QUANTUM.
Indirect Connection With this method (see Fig.1b) the connection is made via
a hub, switcher or local area network (LAN). Normal
‘straight-through’ type cables must be used;
a ‘crossover’ (or ‘null modem’) cable will not work.
The hub or switcher connected to the VN Processor must
be capable of supporting a 100BASE-T connection as
required by the VN-QUANTUM.
Ethernet Cables Electrosonic recommends that you use only Category 5
shielded (STP) cables. Suitable cables are readily available
from most computer stores.
A 5 metre (16 feet) ‘crossover’ type cable is supplied with
the VN-QUANTUM Processor. This can also be ordered
separately under part number ES5960.
For further details on cable requirements and connector pin-outs, please
refer to the Technical Data section of the VN-QUANTUM User Guide.

Configuring the Computer’s IP Address
The computer’s Network port must be configured to use th e
s a m e c o mm u ni c ati o ns p r o to c o l a s t h e VNQUANTUM (called TCP/IP). It must also be allocated an
IP Address that is compatible with the VN Processor. For
advice on choosing IP Addresses, see Appendix A.
If the computer is already connected to (and configured for)
an existing network, you must consult the network
administrator before making any of the following
changes. In addition, please note that you will need to be
logged on with administrative rights before you can change
Windows network settings.

Testing the Ethernet Link
Using the ‘Ping’ Utility
To test the operation of the Ethernet link between the
computer and a VN-QUANTUM Processor, you can use
the ‘Ping’ utility supplied with Windows NT/2000/XP.
~
Click on the Windows Start button, and select Run
from the pop-up menu.
The Run dialog box will appear.
~
In the Open box type in the following command:
ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx –t
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP Address of the VN
Processor that you want to test.
~
Click on the OK button or press the Enter key.
A text box will appear showing a series of messages;
these are explained on page 13.
~
To stop the ping utility, press Ctrl + C on the
keyboard.
12 I456GB issue 8
VN-COMMANDER User Guide Section 1: Getting Started
‘Ping’ Utility
Response Messages
When you run the Ping utility, it will display a series of
response messages, which you can use to determine the state of
the communications link.
For example, if you have ‘pinged’ a VN Processor with
the address 208.132.180.48, you should get a message
similar to the following:
Reply from 208.132.180.48: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=32
This is the correct response which indicates that the
device at the specified address is communicating
correctly. Note that the response ‘time’ value may vary
according to network traffic.
If you get the message...
Request timed out.
...this indicates that there has been no response from the
specified address. Either the processor is not
receiving data from the computer or not sending data
back. Check that the VN Processor is powered-up and set
to the same address that you ‘pinged’. Also, check that
you are using the correct type of connecting cables (i.e.
straight through or crossover – see pages 6 & 7) and that
they are not damaged or faulty.
I456GB issue 8
If you get the message...
Reply from 208.132.180.48: Destination host unreachable.
this indicates that the IP Address of the computer is not
in the same ‘class’ as that of the VN Processor. See
‘Appendix A – IP Addressing’ for further advice.

Starting a New Presentation
When you run VN-COMMANDER for the first time after
installation, a new ‘untitled’ presentation will be created with
no system configuration settings.
Thereafter, there are two methods of starting a new ‘untitled’
presentation depending on whether you want to:
• retain the existing system configuration (e.g. to make a new
presentation for the same system), or to
• create a completely new presentation with no system
configuration (e.g. to make a new presentation for a
different system).
