Installation and commissioning
Requirements
Checking the conditions
Before you integrate your G-ST 6000+ G2 into an existing network, you must en-
sure that the following conditions are met:
There is a functioning network with TCP/IP protocol (100/1000 Mbit Ethernet).
For other networks, the successful integration of G-ST must first be demon-
strated.
For commissioning, a network administrator is required on site who can inter-
vene promptly when problems with the network arise.
The responsible network administrator must provide a free IP address, in some
cases with subnet mask and default gateway, for every G-ST and for each con-
figuration and playback PC. In addition, a free IP address is required per net-
work segment. This additional IP address will be used for test setups during
commissioning and must remain available after completion of work.
With the help of the PING diagnostic tool, which is normally executed as a con-
sole command, functional communication between the G-ST and the configura-
tion or playback PCs must be confirmed. You can also demonstrate functional
name mapping using PING. You start the command window using right klick on
Start  left klick on Command promp  enter PING + IP adress.
Tool for commissioning
Ensure that before commissioning, all accessories needed for installation are availa-
ble and connect these accessories.
If configuration and operation of the system is to be performed directly on the
G-ST, you need the following equipment:
S-VGA monitor (min. resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels, 17-inch recommended)
USB keyboard and USB mouse.
Connect the mouse and keyboard via the USB ports on the back of the device.
Use only standard PC keyboards and mice that are compatible with MS Windows.
Connect the monitor cable to the DVI connector on the back of the device. If neces-
sary, use a VGA adapter if you have an analog RGB monitor.
The device driver for the graphic card has already been installed on the device.
For network integration of G-ST we recommend the following tools:
Laptop with installed network card and the required network configuration. For
testing, installation using MS Windows7 is sufficient.
Establish the connection between the G-ST 6000+ G2 and analysis PC via a
switch or use a crossover network cable.

familiarize yourself with the hardware and use of your system:
Number and manufacturer of the recording cameras.
Number and type of input contacts for event recording.
For serial connection of cash-dispensing machines or access control systems
with card readers, the protocol used and the serial parameters.
The required storage capacity for image data (take into account an additional
15% of the calculated image storage capacity for management of images).
Recording grid (number of images per unit time) of the corresponding cameras
for permanent and/or event recording.
You should also be experienced in dealing with MS Windows and be able to in-
stall hardware and software.
For setup of network applications, you should also have the following information
available to you:
Network topology and technology and responsibilities of your system.
Computer name and/or IP addresses of the computers and devices to be set.
Instructions on installation of in-house PC cards and external devices
To avoid expensive installation and to ensure correct operation, consider the follow-
ing:
Wherever possible, use PC cards offered by GEUTEBRÜCK. If you ordered
these cards with the device, they are already installed and ready for operation.
When re-ordering a card, we strongly recommend also ordering assembly and
the installation at the same time.
Installation of third-party PC cards is performed at your own risk as we cannot
ensure proper system function in such a case.
Use only monitors that meet the minimum requirements set out here. If possible,
use only standard PC keyboards and mice that are MS Windows-compatible.
If possible, use printers that are supported by MS Windows and whose printer
drivers can be found on the system disk in the Windows directory.
For connecting external devices, note in general:
G-ST 6000+ G2 devices do not have a CD-ROM/DVD drive. When selecting
de-vices, please ensure that the devices are compatible with MS Windows.
For the use of a recovery DVD you need an external USB drive.
