Ethernet / LAN

 

On this tab you can choose which Ethernet / LAN connection should be used to establish communication with WolfVision Visualizers and it's also possible to add well known Visualizer entries for the device discovery algorithm to also allow the application to find devices which are outside of the current network the computer is connected to (e.g. Visualizers with a public IP address).

 

To recall the default settings for this dialog tab, click "Reset settings". The other tabs of the "Preferences" dialog box are not affected.

Ethernet Connection

For each network interface card (NIC) and WiFi adapter installed on your computer which are connected to a network an entry can be found in the list of available connections. Simply select the network connection you want to use for device discovery. If you don't want to work with Visualizers connected via Ethernet / LAN you can also choose "Don't use Ethernet / LAN connection" in order to disable the device discovery for Ethernet / LAN Visualizers. This will also speed up the process of detecting all available Visualizers while opening the "Connect To..." dialog box.

If you do have problems detecting connected Visualizers you should verify the IP settings on the Visualizer and check if the Visualizer can be reached with it's IP address from within your web browser. If this doesn't work you may ask your network administrator for advise.

Known Ethernet Devices

With this option, you can describe connected Visualizers for better identifying them.

Select the "Add" button, enter the IP address of the Visualizer you want to describe and enter your description (i.e. "My Visualizer", "Room B12, Building 201").

With the "Edit" button you can change already added Visualizer entries. Obsolete entries can be deleted by selecting them and pressing the "Remove" button.
