Once the initial setup has been completed and operation has been verified, the VB-C10/VB-C10R can be used immediately. The diagram below shows an example of P2P connection between the VB-C10/VB-C10R and a PC.

Installation Procedure

1. As shown in the diagram above, the VB-C10/VB-C10R is connected to a PC via a hub and LAN cables (10Base-T/100Base-TX).

At this stage, please do not connect the AC adapter to the VB-C10/VB-C10R yet.

2. Perform initial settings on the VB-C10/VB-C10R.

3. Check operation

Check to be sure Internet Explorer 4.01 or later has been installed.

Initial Setup

1. Turn on the PC's power switch.

The AC adapter must not yet be connected to the VB-C10/VB-C10R at this stage.

2. Insert the CD-ROM that was supplied with the VB-C10/VB-C10R into the PC's CD-ROM drive, and start up the "VBIPI.exe" program as follows:

1 Double-click My Computer on the desktop.

When using Windows XP, click on the "Start" button, then click "My Computer".

2 When the CD-ROM icon appears, double-click this icon, then double-click "VBIPI.exe".

3. When the "VB-C10/VB-C10R IP Installer" dialog box appears, connect the AC adapter to the VB-C10/VB-C10R and turn on the power.
