(Appendix 2) Frequently Asked Question 1. About WebEye’s Feature 1) What is WebEye? WebEye is a Web camera server. WebEye is consisted of 3 components as CCD module, Web server, and networking device. WebEye captures, processes, and transmits digital images through network. As WebEye itself operates as a Web server, it does not require other dedicated server connection as PC does. By installing WebEye itself at the desired site, you may monitor views from remote site.
user PC’s performance and network line capacity. WebEye can transmit to up to 100 users simultaneously. If 5 users are receiving 10 frames per second, the total frames that WebEye to transmit are 50 frames per second. In this case, WebEye transmits 50 per second from its viewpoint. And the total size of 50 frames’ images is under the network bandwidth.
5) When the network is consisted with only private IP addresses, can WebEye be connected at the network? WebEye can be connected to LAN having only private IP addresses as long as local users access WebEye. However the whole network can be down, if the network’s equipment such as a hub is not acceptable to support all the devices appropriate. Especially, this situation occurs if a lot of WebEyes are connected on a network of narrow bandwidth.
To solve this problem, user should remove and try to re-install WebEye control program as follows. Remove WebEye control program by clicking the right button and selecting ‘Remove’ menu. At a PC that uses Windows98 OS, the program is installed in the directory of C:\windows\Downloaded Program Files. And at a PC of Windows NT or 2000, it is in the directory of C:\winnt\Downloaded Program Files. Then, access again to WebEye and install Active-X Control program.
12) There is some problem to access WebEye. Sometimes I can access WebEye and sometimes not. How can it be solved? Mostly this problem occurs on Cable Modem, ISDN, and xDSL lines that use modems or routers. Those lines connect WebEye and ISP though their modems or routers, and the modems or routers are set to disconnect their connection while WebEye does not use lines. It is because ISP sets the condition on the modem or routers to prevent their lines from being loaded a lot.
(Appendix 3) Utilizing IP Addresses on Local Network 1. Introduction Most of our businesses are done via Internet, lately. We play with information by transmitting through e-mails and searching the world of Internet. IP address is what we utilize to access to the Internet. Currently used IP addresses are limited. And there are 5 classes networks in the world for now, and a network contains lots of IP addresses. A network can hold limited IP addresses. The numbers depend on network class.
Broadcast address: It is to broadcast to all devices that are connected on local network. Broadcast address is a destination for broadcasting and it is determined by calculating. All devices connected on local network have a same Broadcast address. Subnet Mask address: It is to divide a local network into two remote networks. Subnet Mask address roles as a border.
(Appendix 4) Updating WebEye SPD Firmware Warning This process is to update the current firmware that is already installed into your WebEye with a new updated firmware. If you are to begin the process, wait until the ‘Loading complete’ message appears. And during the process, do not give physical shock nor disconnect network and power. Otherwise, your WebEye can be damaged seriously, which may result inappropriate operation or operation failure.
2. Upgrade firmware with upgrading program (1) Practice upgrading program and select WebEye that you are going to update by clicking on IP address or MAC address in the list. When an IP address appears in the blanks of ‘Selected IP address’, key in the administrator’s password in the blank of ‘Administrator’s password’. Then click ‘Start’ button. (2) Click ‘Yes’ button to reboot WeyEye. (3) Click ‘OK’ button to start rebooting process.
