Powering on VPort 2140 Video Server
First, make sure that all cables are correctly and firmly connected, and then turn on the cameras,
sensors, and alarm devices.
Next, power on the video server by attaching the Video Server’s power adaptor to an electrical
outlet. After the POST (Power-On Self Test) is completed successfully, the Video Server is ready
to be configured. At this point, the network speed and video modulation type will be detected
automatically.
Assigning an IP Address to VPort 2140 Video Server
Working in a DHCP Server Networking Environment
The VPort’s IP address is assigned by a DHCP server when the VPort is connected to a DHCP
server network. In this case, use the DHCP Server’s IP address table or the MOXA VPort
Installation Wizard utility to determine the IP address that was assigned by the DHCP Server.
NOTE
After powering on the VPort, wait a few seconds for the POST (Power On Self Test) to run. The
CONNECT LED will light up to indicate that the IP address has been assigned.
Installing the VPort Installation Wizard
1. Install the VPort Installation Wizard, which is located on the Software CD.
