Using the Raytec Discovery Tool
When purchasing the VARIO IP illuminators you will have been supplied with a software
package called the Discovery Tool. This application allows you to configure and check the
illuminators on your network. A full instruction manual comes with the Discovery Tool and
you should refer to this for detailed information on configuring illuminators with it. This
section will detail the steps that allow you to add lamps to the Milestone XProtect system.
Open the Raytec Discovery Tool and you will be presented with the following window.
Click the discover button and any VARIO IP illuminators that are on the network should
appear in the list.
By default new illuminators always have a name of VARIOIP, an IP Address of
192.168.2.80 and no group name. Before being able to use them in your Milestone system
they should be updated to have a valid IP address and meaningful names.
