I.D. AL - VP100 Full HD 1080p video player - User manual
® Waves System
V 1.0 - 2010
8 - Ethernet link
Via the Ethernet link, the VP100 communicates to update content
via FTP.
You can use the player in a local network. An adequately
configured Modem/Router will allow access of the player via the
Internet.
Caution! Network administration requires good computer skills.
In a local network installation, the player requires an IP address. This address is set in the Option menu
(see option menu chapter). The player is then recognised on the network as a FTP server with a FTP
software such as Filezilla.
In an installation where only the player is present or in a local network with external access, you must use
a Modem/Router to create a gateway between the player and the Internet.
Since the Modem/Router is configured with an IP gateway, you must declare this gateway to the VP100
so that it can communicate (configured in the Option menu).
8.1 - Connection of EventPlayer to the Internet through an ADSL link, without
local network nor computer
Hardware required:
VP100 + ADSL Modem / Router
Connect your player to your ADSL Modem/Router
with a RJ45 cable and connect your Modem to a
telephone jack with ADSL filter.
A - You have an IP address provided by your
service provider
Configure your Modem/Router entering the player IP address, access data to provider (account, password
…), Gateway used and the various configurations related to your Modem. Also set the IP and Gateway of
your player.
Open the FTP communication ports (21) and the HTTP ports (80) in the Modem.
On a computer connected to the Internet and a browser, type the IP address of your connection.
The window of your player should be displayed.
B - You don't have a permanent IP address
This is a solution to make your player visible over the internet without using a permanent IP address.
We suggest you to use a service provider offering "DynDNS" service. It's a dynamic DNS service modifiable
with every change in the IP of your service provider. For example, you can use the free service on
www.dyndns.org.
At first, you must open an account with a service provider and obtain your Host name, User name and
password. Caution! Your Modem / Router must have this feature.
Configure your Router Modem accordingly and validate the DynDNS option.
