5. FAQ

5.1. Client software can not access the network video server:

 Possible Cause: No network connection

o Solution: Check the Ethernet cable first and then double check whether the

problem is caused by a virus on the PC. Try to plug another device in the
network to make sure the PC has network access.

 Possible Cause: Incorrect IP address entered

o Solution: Double check the IP address from the server.

 Possible Cause: There is an IP conflict

o Solution: Disconnect the video server and network. Connect video server and

PC separately, then reset the IP address.

 Possible Cause: IP addresses are in different subnets

o Solution: Check the server's IP address, subnet mask and gateway address

settings.

 Possible Cause: Unknown

o Solution: Restore to factory settings.

5.2. The video server cannot be found by terminal configuration tool:

 Possible Cause: Check whether the network works

o Solution: 1.) Turn off firewall
o Solution: 2.) If the device can be found, first check whether the network works.

If the network works, but the network interface indicator is not a regular
green light flashing, please contact our technical support engineer for
equipment maintenance.
