Installation Preview
There are 3 mains steps required to perform a successful installation:
- Hardware installation
- Software installation
- Network configuration
Hardware installation consists of connecting cables to the MVS including network, video, and power cables.
Software installation consists of the installation of software that is necessary to properly view the video from the MVS or to configure the MVS itself. The software includes:
- IPInstaller - a utility for locating devices and configuring network settings on a LAN.
- PiXORD Component Installer - installs all ActiveX components used by PiXORD devices for things such as video display and configuration.
- Macromedia Flash Player - necessary for displaying some components of the Web UI.
The following are not necessary, but may be used for added convenience:
- PiXORD 6016 Recording Software - for displaying and recording up to 16 channels simultaneously. Both PiXORD MPEG-4 and MJPEG devices are supported.
- XviD - an MPEG-4 codec. If no other MPEG-4 codecs (ie. DivX, 3ivX, ffdshow, etc.) are installed on your computer, the PiXORD Component installer will install this for you.
- QuickTime or VLC- though not necessary, this can be used for viewing the MPEG-4 stream without a Web browser.
Network configuration consists of modifying the network settings for the MVS in order to successfully connect to the device.
