GigE Server Verification
After a successful Sapera Network Imaging package installation, the GigE Server icon is visible in
the desktop taskbar tray area (note that in Windows 7 the icon remains hidden until a camera is
connected). After connecting a camera (see following section), allow a few seconds for the GigE
Server status to update. The Calibir GigE camera must be on the same subnet as the NIC to be
recognized by the GigE Server.
