3. Connecting iCanServer540R to Network

iCanServer540R supports LAN, xDSL, and Cable modem. It also supports shared IP environment
where single IP address is shared by at least 2 IP devices. Refer to [IP-Installer User’s
Guide] for details of setting the IP address for iCanServer540R.

3.1. Connecting to LAN


In case of connecting the iCanServer540R to LAN, it is generally connected as in Figure 3-1.

Figure 3-1. Connecting the iCanServer540R to LAN

1. Follow through steps 1 to 4 in Section 2.5 to assign IP address to iCanServer540R.


2. Install iCanServer540R and connect it to desired LAN.
3. Check if you can receive video data when connecting to iCanServer540R using the viewer
program.
4. When one or more IP video products are connected through a IP sharing device (i.e. router) to
a larger network (i.e. the internet), in order to access each unit from outside the local area
network, each device must have a unique RTSP (Real Time Stream Protocol) and HTTP port
number. You must also configure your IP sharing device for “port forwarding”. This is to enable

Rev.1.0 (Nov. 2006) 14


iCanServer540R User’s Guide

the IP sharing device to forward packet data with unique port number (RTSP and HTTP) to unique
internal IP address (local IP address). If you only plan to access multiple units from within a local
area network, you do not need to change the RTSP and HTTP port numbers, unless other IP
sharing devices sit in-between the client and the IP video products. For more detailed information
regarding the use of IP sharing device refer to the document [Use of Private IP network using
IP-sharing-device].

3.2. Connecting to xDSL/Cable Modem


1. Follow through steps 1 to 4 in Section 2.5 to assign IP address and other network parameters
to iCanServer540R.
2. Install iCanServer540R and connect it to xDSL or Cable modem as in Figure 3-2.

Figure 3-2. Connecting the iCanServer540R to ADSL Modem

When fixed IP address is assigned to the xDSL or Cable modem, follow the same way as

assigning IP address for the case of LAN using IP-installer. To enable the notification of the
changed IP address to the user over e-mail when the IP address is changed in floating IP

Rev.1.0 (Nov. 2006) 15


iCanServer540R User’s Guide

environment, you have to assign the e-mail address when user name and password are
input using IP-installer. (Management server provides a convenient way of
connecting to your video server under dynamic IP environment. Please refer to
the Application note regarding “Management Server” in the CD.)

When connecting iCanServer540R to xDSL or Cable modem, usually regular LAN cable

is required. But since some modems has crossover connections, please contact your
service provider for detailed information.

Rev.1.0 (Nov. 2006) 16


iCanServer540R User’s Guide

4. IP-Installer

iCanServer540R needs an IP address for connection to the network(Internet/Intranet). IP-


Installer is a PC program developed to assign IP address and setup network parameters to digital
video security network products such as Network Camera and A/V Server from iCanTek. IP-
Installer is provided in a CD supplied with iCanServer540R or it can be downloaded
from” www.icantek.com”.

Detailed information of Installing and running IP-installer can be found in [IP-installer


user’s guide] in the CD provided with the unit.

5.1.3. Controlling DVR


When iCanServer540R is connected through iNVR or internet browser, it is connected as an A/V
server, i.e., it functions as a real-time A/V streaming server to the client. A user having the
authority of administrator can enter into DVR control mode by pressing button. By
pressing this button the DVR administrator will have a screen as shown in Fig.5.1(B). For security
purpose only one user is allowed to be connected as a DVR administrator. Refer to [iNVR user’s

6. Tips for Using iCanServer540R

6.1. Alarm Input/Output

The Alarm In/RLY OUT Connector is used to connect the various sensing and alerting devices.
Examples of sensing devices are infrared sensors, motion sensors, heat/smoke sensors, magnetic
sensor, etc. Examples of alerting devices are loud speaker, flashing light, etc

1. Alarm Input(ALARM IN)


Connect the two wires of the sensors. The sensor type can be set in Administrative
Mode(Ref. 5.5 & 5.6). Output lines providing on-off switching are connected between
“In-“ and “In+” pins. Figure 6-2 shows the input circuit of “Alarm In”.

Figure 6-1. Alarm input circuit of iCanServer540R

2. Alarm Output(RLY OUT)


Alarm output is configured as a relay circuit. Relay circuit is normal open and circuit is
closed upon alarm output. The relay is capable of switching 30V/2A electrical signal.

1. After iCanServer540R is successfully installed.

• iCanServer540R in viewing mode, neither channel name nor video is display and
eventually timeout message is shown up.

Check the power and network connection of iCanServer540R.


To check if the network is properly operating, open the browser and try to connect to
any server.
Example) http://www.icantek.com
Or open the MS-DOS Prompt and type the following.
ping www.icantek.com
Then press Enter. If you see the “ Reply from …” message it means that the network is
working properly. To check if the iCanServer540R is connected, open the MS-DOS
Prompt and type the following.
ping [the IP of the server]
Example) ping 192.168.1.112
If you see the “Reply from …” message, it means that the server is properly connected.
If you do not see a Reply message, check if the network cable and power cable are
properly connected.

• Name of the channel on iCanServer540R is displayed but there is no video.

Check if there is input video source to the channel. And check if there is a firewall in the
network. Check if the network is NAT type.

In case there is a firewall in the network:


Try a TCP connection. TCP connection is usually enabled by checking TCP box before
connecting to iCanServer540R. Refer to viewer manual for more detailed operation.

If the network is NAT type, you need port mapping. It is be achieved by setting the NAT
server to forward all packets coming in through a specific port to iCanServer540R.

2. After Successfully Connecting to the iCanServer540R

• Video movement is slow.

z In Basic Setup of Admin Mode, lower the “Quality”. High quality means more data.
You can also set the “Max. Bandwidth” to higher value. But this value must be lower
than the maximum upload speed of your network. For example, if the maximum
uploading bandwidth of the network is 400Kbps, set the total “Max. Bandwidth” of the
4 channels to 384Kbps. If you set it higher, the video image can be corrupted with
artifacts.
Ask your network manager or ISP for maximum uploading bandwidth of the network.

z Check whether dual streaming mode is enabled and iCanServer540R is recording


video. Dual streaming mode is enabled by selecting “Enable High Quality Video
Recording” in basic set-up page (Refer to Section 5.2). When dual streaming mode is
enabled, iCanServer540R provides low speed video to connected user while recording
high quality video into HDD.

• The image is dull and I see green, pink dots.

This could be caused by performance limitation of the PC. Do not run too many programs while
running viewer program. The other reason could be missing data while transmission from

• Mosaic phenomenon.

Mosaic phenomenon occurs when not enough network bandwidth is available considering the
resolution and frame rate of the video.
Example is 704x480 video with low Max. Bandwidth.
Users are recommended to adjust resolution and frame rates to lower values for lower
bandwidth network.

3. How can I maintain high quality video recording when I’m using low speed network

iCanServer540R has Dual streaming mode that enables high quality video recording on the HDD,
while providing lower quality video to on-line users. This feature is enabled by selecting “Enable
High Quality Recording” in basic set-up mode. (Refer to 5.2 for more detailed information.)
