Initial Access to the Camera

Yet another setup trick is to login to the device initially using WIFI. 

The device will need to be plugged into a network hub that is connected to a DHCP server

  • change the wired IP to Obtain Automatically

    • later in the process we do this anyways

  • device will reboot

  • reconnect using WIFI and record the wired IP that was assigned to the device

    • generally a device will be assigned the same IP each time it boots

    • you should now be able to connect to the listed wired IP

    • disconnect your wifi connection

This is useful since often your computer will become confused about where to send packets.  Using the wifi connection is good for configuration, but accessing other online resources may be problematic with the second connection.  Once the wifi is disconnected all configuration can be performed through the wired IP.

   

Connecting to PL8RDR from tablet or camera

WIFI: pl8rdr.opscom / T0maha3k [10.42.0.1]


System - Network Settings

Changes on this panel will reboot the device.

This work is usually done by OPS-COM support. 
Details are here to help those clients that are doing initial configuration themselves.

  • connect wireless and setup wired connection first, then connection may be easier

    • device reboots numerous times during setup

    • DHCP server software:  http://www.dhcpserver.de  -   (extract to C: )

      • setup computer with LAN 192.168.8.1 and use that for IP assignment

      • camera will connect to computer to obtain IP address

 

  • Hostname: Mobile-R | Mobile-L   (that way we know which is the Right / Left camera)

 

System - Time Sync

Changes on this panel will reboot the device.

 

Plate Reader - General Settings

  • should always be the CLIENT_ID  (no spaces)

    • eg. OC_TOMA

NOTE: This graphic shows and old implementation. The text in this sample should be only:  OC_LIONS

 

Plate Reader - Plate Reader

Changes on this panel will reboot the device.

  • create a buffer around the capture area

  • the listed settings are factory defaults (except Locator) and should work with minimal issues

  • for mobile bounding region should be set to a lower area since plates will rarely be at the top of the image

    • leave a gutter around the bounding area of at least 30 pixels
