7 Maintenance and upgrades
7.1 Testing the network connection
You can use the ping command to check the connection between two IP addresses. This
allows you to test whether a unit in the network is active.
1. Open the DOS command prompt.
2. Type ping followed by the IP address of the camera.
If the camera is found, the response appears as Reply from ... followed by the number of
bytes sent and the transmission time in milliseconds. If not, the camera cannot be accessed
over the network. This might be because:
– The camera is not correctly connected to the network. Check the cable connections in
this case.
– The camera is not correctly integrated into the network. Check the IP address, subnet
mask and gateway address.
7.2 Camera reset
You can use the Factory Reset button to restore the camera to its original settings. Any
changes to the settings are overwritten by the factory defaults. A reset may be necessary, for
example, if the camera has invalid settings that prevent it from functioning as desired.
1. If necessary, back up the current configuration using the Download button on the
Maintenance configuration page (see Section 5.39 Advanced Mode: Maintenance,
page 77).
2. Open the cover of the housing, press the Factory Reset button located on the camera
module beside the SD slot until the CONNECT LED flashes red (see Section 3.4 Controls
and displays on the camera module, page 15). All settings will revert to their defaults.
3. Change the IP address of the VOT-320 if necessary.
4. Configure the camera to meet your requirements.
CAUTION!
Disconnect the power supply from the mains before opening the housing of the camera.
All configured settings will be discarded during a reset.
If necessary, back up the current configuration using the Download button on the
Maintenance configuration page (see Section 5.39 Advanced Mode: Maintenance, page 77).
NOTICE!
After a reset, the camera can only be addressed via the factory default IP address. The IP
address can be changed as described in the Installation chapter (see Section 4.7 Setup using
Bosch Video Client, page 22).
