Once you have configure your windows ethernet adapter you can test the settings with ping command:

System Requirements:
In order to view a live stream , for example with synview running on the camera, you can use the tools listed below.
Install putty on your windows machine
putty will do the ssh-connection to the iam-camera.Install Xming
Xming will do the graphical interface on windowsInstall WinSCP is usefull on any host system
WinSCP is a program to transfer files from/to the iam camera.
The tools above for Win64 can be downloaded from below.
WinSCP - Filetransfer to camera:

If you connect to iam the first time you may get asket the following warning. You need to confirm with "yes".
After opening that connection, login as

It is a common source of errors to operate an monochrom sensor in the colour space. If you reviced an monochrome sensor you should change the Pixel Format to Mono 8 .
Please be aware, that you get only a low frame refresh rate with this type of connection.
A better refresh rate will be achieved with the "GigEvision server of synview" in the future.
For more information see section Synview above.
Start halcon viewer from then test_halcon_samples:
Halcon can be preinstalled to your camera. See Halcon fore more information.
Type into console:
/home/root/200430_test_halcon/cpp/test_halcon_live_view/bin/aarch64-linux/test_halcon_live_view |
"Image Format Control → Pixel Format" to Mono8 is set inside "test_halcon_live_view"
