Function Description
DHCP Gateway If the Digital Sprite is to be installed in a DHCP network, this option
would display the gateway that was automatically allocated to the unit
from the DHCP Server.
DHCP Name This would be the name of the Digital Sprite 2 that is automatically
allocated by the DHCP server.
Serial Number This a read only section and is generated by the unit hardware
identifying the serial number of the Digital Sprite 2.
LAN, WAN, ISDN This option ensures the speed of the data from the Digital Sprite 2
matches the speed of the network the data is being transmitted across.
These are default settings and are configured as:
LAN – 10000 Kilobits/second
WAN – 256 Kilobits/second
ISDN – 64 Kilobits/second
Force 10BaseT
operation
The Digital Sprite 2 supports 10 or 100BaseT half duplex transmission,
this will force the unit to operate at a 10BaseT connection.
Transmit Image
Buffers
This is used in order to improve the picture delivery over Ethernet when
using a slow connection, i.e. 256Kbps. Options available are 1, 2 or 3
buffers.
Ethernet MTU This is the maximum transmit unit for the Ethernet packet. The MTU is
the largest physical packet size measured in bytes, that the network can
transmit. By default this figure is set to 1500bytes.
TCP Re-Transmit
Timeout
This is the time the Digital Sprite 2 will wait to re-send a packet if an
acknowledgement is not received.
When making a connection across a WAN link this figure should be
increased and should match the timeout figure for the router.
PPP Idle Line
Timeout
This is the time the Digital Sprite 2 will wait before dropping the PPP link
if data has not been transmitted or received.
PPP Link Down
Timer
If for any reason the PPP connection is lost then this is the time period
before the Digital Sprite 2 will be forced to drop the PPP connection.
Packet Size This is the maximum packet size that will be transmitted from the Digital
Sprite 2. This figure is identified in Bytes.
