VN-C30ULWT0031-001D 03.10.17, 11:21 AMPage 33 AdobePageMaker6.5J/PPC

With VN-C30U Version 2, it has become possible to view images and to

perform various controls and settings of operations configurations via the

web browser.

This manual has been compiled in order to describe this new facility, which

is the “Control via Web Browser”. However, note that MPEG1 moving images

cannot be viewed and the image up-down inversion function is unavailable

via the web browser.

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

The environment described below is necessary for operation of the VN-C30U

through a web browser.

A personal computer running the following web browser:

•The PC needs to satisfy the operational environment (P.10), which is

described in a separate volume of the manual.

•Web browser that has compatibility with Java Script and Frame:

Netscape Ver. 4.x or Internet Explorer Ver. 4.x, 5.x, 6.x is required.

•For the CPU performance and memory capacity requirements, refer to

the values recommended for the web browser in use.

To obtain smooth moving image displays on a large screen, a web

browser capacity above the recommended value is required.

Camera supplied images will not be displayed correctly in the 256-

color mode.

In order to view a moving image with a Web browser, a JAVA VM is required.

CAUTION:

5If a Microsoft Corporation JAVA VM is not used to view a moving image, please

go to the following Homepage address for further advice.

http://www.jvc-victor.co.jp/english/pro/vnetworks/index-e.html

5A Microsoft VM is not provided with a WindowsXP SP1a.

LAN Environment

•The VN-C30U unit functions as a web server based on HTTP protocol.

Access linkage using a host name is possible if the environment allows

the DNS (Domain Name System) to be used.

•It is possible to connect a VN-C30U unit and a PC in a direct 1:1

connection by using a cross cable. (Certain LAN boards do not allow

the use of a cross cable, though this is a very rare case. Be sure to

check your LAN board.)

Web Page Illustrations Used inThis Manual

Hereafter, the figures entitled VN-C30U Page show a display of the web

page data of the VN-C30U (including images captured by the cameras) by

the web page display function of the web browser.

Due to this mechanism, the format and character font of the displayed web

pages may be variable depending on the types and settings of the web

browser in use. Should the operation be hindered due to a lack of any of the

screen display items that should be displayed, adopt measures for displaying

all items by resizing the window, etc.

The figures in this manual are based on Netscape web page displays.

When the browser in use is Netscape

•When a moving image of the VN-C30U is displayed, the web page

display cannot be updated by changing the Netscape window size. In

this case, click on the <Update> button on the Netscape window to

update the web page display.

When the browser in use is Internet Explorer

•After the password has been changed, the password entry confirmation

window may ask for the password twice. In this case, enter the same

password twice.

•When the VN-C30U is connected through a proxy server, the correct

pan/tilt positions may sometimes not be enabled to be displayed. In

this case, click “Pan/Tilt” a few times until the correct display is obtained.

VN-C30ULWT0031-001D 03.10.17, 11:18 AMPage 4 AdobePageMaker6.5J/PPC

1-2 Changing the internal settings

Start the web browser.

In the web browser, specify the factory-set web page address of the

VN-C30U. (Direct specification of the factory-set web page address

enables the web browser to display the VN-C30U Top Page.)

http://192.168.0.2/index-e.html

Caution

If a proxy server is set for accessing the Internet, a direct specification

may not be permitted. In this case, change the proxy setting to permit

direct address specification.

The setup consists of changing the contents of [Other Settings]. (The same

setup is also available using the Setting tool provided with the standard

controller.)

VN-C30U Settings page [Other Settings]

Items in [Other Settings]

[IP Address] To change to the IP address assigned to or approved for

the network administrator. (This is can be changed only

when DHCP is not used.)

[Subnet Mask] Similarly to the IP address, to set the value assigned to

or approved for the network administrator

[Default Gateway]

To set the IP address of the default gateway

If this is not used, set “0.0.0.0”.

[Host Name] To specify the host name using up to 8 alphanumeric

characters

This should be set when access linkage using a host

name is required in an environment allowing the use of

the DNS (Domain Name System). The host name is

displayed in the title bars of sub-windows including the

control windows.

Do not specify anything when the host name is not used

or unknown.

[MAC Address] A physical address proper to each product.

* This cannot be changed.

VN-C30ULWT0031-001D 03.10.17, 11:19 AMPage 7 AdobePageMaker6.5J/PPC

[Program Version] Program version of the firmware in the VN-C30U

unit.

[Password] To set the password using up to 8 alphanumeric

characters.

The same password should be entered twice at

each level for confirmation.

[Pan/Tilt Position] To select whether the current pan/tilt positions

are to be displayed in the control and

configuration windows. (This is ineffective with

the VN-C30U Ver. 2.)

[Cache Control] With a very small number of proxy servers that

caches cgi, the pan/tilt control may not function

correctly. In this case, inhibit the Cache operation

by checking the cache box.

[FTP Server Function] Set whether FTP Server is valid/invalid.

If this is set to valid, it will be possible to upload

various user HTML pages, GIF and JPEG image

files, etc. to this unit using common FTP client

software.

* Uploaded files will all be placed directly under

the “/user folder” directory.

Access from a web browser can be done by

inputting the URL such as http://192.168.0.2/

user/aaa.html

(When accessing “aaa.html” stored on FTP, the

“192.168.0.2” denotes the IP address of this

machine.)

* The FTP user name is fixed as “Administrator”.

For the FTP password, use the administrator

level password.

* When the “HTTP Viewing” is set to “Disable”

using the Setup Tool, it will not be able to

access the file uploaded with a Web browser.

VN-C30ULWT0031-001D 03.10.17, 11:19 AMPage 8 AdobePageMaker6.5J/PPC

[Default Page Set-up] If “invalid”, it will be set to the regular VN-C30U

Top Page.

If “valid”, the HTML file you set will be used as

the default page.

*Default Page refers to the page that is displayed when only the IP address

is specified.

ATTENTION

Even if the function is “valid”, if the HTML file specified here does not

exist then a message such as “404: Not Found” will be displayed by the

browser when “http://192.168.0.2/” is specified, so make sure that the

setting is made correctly.

[HTTP Port] It is possible to change the port number of the

HTTP Server on this unit to a number other than

the default port 80 to raise the level of security.

(Selectable range: 1-65535 excluding 20 and 21)

If the HTTP Port is changed, access from web

browser will be done as follows:

http://192.168.0.2:12345/ or http://

192.168.0.2:12345/index.html

(Example when Port 12345 is selected)

When you don’t know or forget the HTTP Port

number, use the provided Setup tool to check it.

[Default positioning] This enables setting the HTTP port automatically

in order to resume a specified position number

when the power is turned on or if the software is

reset. (It is necessary to register a position in

advance in the memory to enable this function.

Refer to page 19.)

CAUTION

•The allotted FTP user area is approximately 90 K bytes, however since

this unit’s file system is generated dynamically, the actual storable

capacity may be less than this in certain cases.

•Folders cannot be created on this FTP server. Only file upload/delete/

rename are possible.
