DHCP Operation and IP Address Display during Startup

DHCP Operation

DM-NC40 supports DHCP. If there is DHCP server in same LAN, network settings, i.e. IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, are provided from the DHCP server to the unit after power on or rebooting. After turning on the power or rebooting, the unit displays IP address. If there is DSCP server in same LAN, provided IP address from the DHCP server will be displayed on the front of the unit. If there is no DHCP server, IP address “10 0 0 1” is displayed after about 2 minutes and the IP address and subnet mask are set to the default values of 10.0.0.1 and 255.0.0.0, respectively.
If the IP address could not be acquired:
After about 2 minutes
Initialization operation
When DHCP server is not available, network settings by manual may be required. Use Web browser (see page 30) or API commands described in page 54 to change the setting to Manual.
* Changing from DHCP to Manual is possible from Web browser, but you need to use API
command to change from Manual to DHCP.
* During DHCP is enabled, IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gatew a y, Domain Name and
DNS Server settings cannot be set from Web browser.

IP Address Display

The IP address is displayed after the power of DM-NC40 is turned on. When the power is turned on, the unit performs initialization and current IP address is displayed twice on the connection number display of the unit.
Display example when the IP address is 10. 0. 0. 1:

About the Alarm (Continued)
Alarm notification using API
When alarm settings are set to send alarm information to DM-NC40 with API, the monitor mode DM-NC40 that receives the notification works as follows: (For details on settings, see page 37)
1. If the source unit is registered in the telephone book, the number of source unit flashes on the number display of the monitor unit.
2. If the monitor is connected to another unit, the connection is disconnected when the PLAY button is pressed, and new connection to the source unit is made.
3. When monitor unit receives multiple alarms from many source units, and if STOP button is pressed instead of PLAY button, each source unit numbers flash on the panel. If there are no more alarms, the unit will return to the previous connection before the first alarm.
Memo
Up to 10 alarm notifications can be handled as above.
When connected with PLAY button, encode parameters in the telephone book of the monitor unit are used. If
there are multiple registrations having same IP addresses in the telephone book, smallest Edit No. is used. (In observing mode, monitor unit obeys settings of camera side.)
Alarm notifications from DM-NC40 units not registered in the TELEPHONE BOOK is ignored.
Alarm notifications from current connecting DM-NC40 is ignored.
If the acceptance is set to automatic (AUTO), monitor unit connects to the alarm source unit automatically
without pressing PLAY button.
If the acceptance is disabled (OFF), alarm notifications is ignored. (Acceptance setting can be changed in
NETWORK SETUP screen.)
When encode parameters of camera mode are changed by connection from monitor mode, image file recording
is stopped during the parameter change is in progress. Same settings to both camera mode and monitor mode are recommended to avoid such problem.
Alarm notification is ignored during IP address display at start.
