Important
If a white camera is configured with an unknown fixed IP address, you must reset it
to use DHCP before you can discover it on the network. Resetting the camera to use
DHCP requires physically accessing the camera inside the library. Contact Spectra
Logic Technical Support for assistance (see
Contacting Spectra Logic on page 7).
