System Configuration Example of basic system configuration - Viewing videos using a viewer Sample system configuration VC-C4 VC-C4 VC-C4 fC:4O-M64MmUmNIC1A:1T.IO4-N2.C8AMERA VC-C4 fC:4O-M64MmUmNIC1A:1T.IO4-N2.C8AMERA Ethernet (10/100Mbps) VB101 VC-C4 VC-C4 fC:4O-M64MmUmNIC1A:1T.IO4-N2.C8AMERA VB101 Internet WebView Livescope Viewer Software (Java Viewer or Helper Viewer) Recommended browser G Netscape Navigator/ Communicator4.78 or later G Internet Explorer 4.01 or later This system configuration consists of the VB101 with WebView Livescope Viewer Software (→ P.18). The WebView Livescope Viewer Software consists of the Helper Viewer and the Java Viewer. Helper Viewer must be installed in advance from the supplied CD-ROM, while Java Viewer is not installed in advance but automatically downloaded from the VB101. Since Java Viewer is downloaded each time you want to view videos, it is useful when viewing videos for the first time. Helper Viewer, however, is more convenient when you want to view videos frequently. If you want to distribute live videos of places such as popular tourist destinations from Web pages, it is best for your Web page visitors to use the Java Viewer that does not need to be installed in advance. IViewer software types and functions Viewer Software Java Viewer Functions Videos from the VB101 can be displayed by a Web browser that can run Java applet. Because the Java Viewer is automatically downloaded and does not need to be pre-installed, unlike the Helper Viewer, it is compatible with any platform that supports Java-capable environments. Because it uses the HTTP protocol, the Java Viewer penetrates firewalls. However, it may not run stably on some platforms or browser types. Also, because the Viewer is downloaded when the Web page loads, start-up times and execution speeds are slower than the Helper Viewer. Helper Viewer A helper application for viewing videos from the VB101 that is launched from a Web browser. The Helper Viewer must be pre-installed. Install Helper Viewer from the supplied CD-ROM. Compared with the Java Viewer, start-up is faster because the Viewer does not need to be downloaded. This Viewer is recommended for users who use it frequently. Because it supports the HTTP protocol, the Helper Viewer penetrates firewalls unscathed. c Note G To connect the VB101 to the Internet, you require a leased line connection to an Internet service provider or a LAN-type dialup IP connection. If you are using a LANtype dialup connection, check that the connection supports bidirectional calling. G Install Helper Viewer from "Mo Setup.exe" on the supplied CD-ROM. G The WebView Livescope user's manual is on the supplied CD-ROM. (Mon-E.pdf) 16
