7. Can I control other manufacturers’ equipment from the browser?
Not at this time.
8. Can I record video with PelcoNet?
Yes. PelcoNet can record video to the hard drive of the viewing PC. The video is recorded in AVI
format, which allows playback through either the browser or Windows Media Player.
9. Everything is wired correctly but I do not have any control from the browser. What
else could be wrong?
The transparent data port settings must be set to match the equipment to which PelcoNet is
connected.
Also, in Internet Explorer, the Microsoft Virtual Machine must be enabled. To do so: on the
Tools menu, select Internet Options. Then select the Advanced tab. Locate the option Microsoft
VM. Place a check mark next to Java Console Enabled and JIT compiler for virtual machine
enabled. Reboot your computer.
These options are required for the Java applets in PelcoNet to function properly.
10. Can I control the Genex multiplexer from the browser and have a local KBD4000?
Yes. You must have Genex Version 4.1 or higher. This version lets you connect a KBD4000 to
the Genex COM IN port and PelcoNet to the Genex COM OUT. This gives you both local and
remote control. Refer to
Connecting PelcoNet to the COM OUT RS-422 Port on a Genex
Multiplexer
in Appendix A for detailed information.
11. Can I control the Genex multiplexer server?
Not at this time.
12. Can I use DHCP (dynamically assigned IP address) with PelcoNet?
Yes.
13. What type of compression does PelcoNet use?
PelcoNet uses the H.323 standard. H.323 is an industry standard for video teleconferencing
over the Internet. It provides the most effective use of bandwidth with excellent video quality.
14. I do not get live video in the browser but server push is working. What could be
wrong?
Verify that the ActiveX plug-in is installed and that your video is set to 16-bit color. Also check
with your network administrator to verify that the TCP/IP ports PelcoNet uses are not being
filtered and that you have enough bandwidth.
