User manual

• The blue section speciﬁes the wireless network settings that will be

used by the transmitter. It is important to note that these settings

are not automatically retrieved and must be manually speciﬁed by the

user. For more detailed discussion about wireless settings, please see

Appendix B.

– The SSID ﬁeld allows you to specify the name of the network the

camera is connecting to. The computer must be set to connect to

the same network for the two to communicate. Note that this ﬁeld

is case sensitive and whitespace characters (eg spaces) do count.

– The Network Type ﬁeld is used to select what type of WiFi

network to which you will be connecting. Ad-Hoc networks are

used to communicate directly between the camera and computer,

whereas Infrastructure networks are used to communicate using an

existing wireless network (ie one based around an access point/wireless

router/base station).

– The Channel ﬁeld is used to specify the frequency that the net-

work will operate on. Note that this is only required for ad-hoc

networks as it will automatically be discovered for infrastructure

setups.

– The Encryption Mode ﬁeld allows you to select the type of

encryption you are using on the network. When enabled, all data

travelling over the network will be encrypted so that other parties

cannot gain access to it. Note, however, that encryption does add

extra overheads and can slow down the transfer rate of images.

– The Encryption Key ﬁeld is used to specify the key used to

gain access to an encrypted network. This must be identical on

all devices connected to the network for it to function correctly.

Note that if encryption is disabled, this ﬁeld will b e greyed out.

• The grey section provides access to the various methods of reviewing

the images received by the ITP server. These are the same functions

available in the tray menu, however they are placed in this location for

your convenience.

– The Show Slideshow link launches a dialog to conﬁgure and

start a slideshow of the images received by the server. See section

4.5 for more details on this feature.
