Prepare the Ethernet connection
The network interface of the VisionSensor PV2 / PV3 is set to DHCP. If you want to connect the
camera to your local network infrastructure, a running DHCP server is required. Usually, every
modern router has a built-in DHCP server.
You also have the possibility to attach the VisionSensor PV2 / PV3 directly to your PC. Due to the
missing DHCP server, the camera and the PC will use Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA)
or Zeroconf.
Direct attach (APIPA / Zeroconf):
You can connect the VisionSensor PV2 / PV3 directly to your PC. Simply plug in the Ethernet ca-
ble of the VisionSensor PV2 / PV3 into the Ethernet port of your PC.
For direct attach, the PC and the camera must support Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA)
or Zeroconf. If you have a Windows 10 PC, APIPA is enabled by default. Go to the Ethernet
adapter settings. Select the Ethernet adapter (right click), which is connected to the VisionSensor
PV2 / PV3, then click on “Properties”.
