TCP/IP Receiver
50 Administrator Guide v 2.2 Thermo Scientific Smart-Vue
®
Wireless Monitoring Solution
• To avoid electrical interference, place the receiver at least 80 cm (31 in.)
away from electrical outlets, wiring and network cabling.
• For best signal propagation, place the receiver in an open area at a
slightly elevated location (i.e., not directly on the ground), about 2
meters (6.5 ft.) high.
12.4.3 Activating your
Network Receiver
The Smart-Vue network receiver is a standalone device that requires a wall
power source for operation. To activate your receiver:
1. Screw the provided antenna onto the network receiver without forcing
it.
2. Place the receiver as described in the previous section, and use the
wall-mount adapter or Velcro® tape to adhere it.
3. Plug the AC adapter into the electrical power outlet or UPS.
CAUTION: We highly recommend that you use a UPS for your receiver(s).
4. Insert the adapter’s AC adapter plug into the network receiver. The
network receiver’s two red LEDs light up for a couple of seconds, and
then one of them turns off.
5. Use the provided RJ-45 Ethernet cable to plug the receiver into your
network.
12.5 Configuring
TCP/IP Receiver
Parameters
12.5.1 Common Parameters
for Incoming and Outgoing
Set-ups
To configure your TCP/IP receiver, use your Web browser to connect
directly to the network receiver and then configure its basic parameters, as
described below.
CAUTION: For this configuration, you need to plug in the provided AC
adapter, and connect your network receiver either into the network directly
using a regular RJ-45 Ethernet cable or into your computer using a
crossed-cable. The receiver does not need to be placed in its final location
for this operation, but it does need to be accessible over the network.
