    im unable to connect my STT3200 by ethernet, Im using the IP address that is stated on the camera when I connect using usb. I'm using the SkyX, I notice the lights are lit up on the connector for ethernet.
    What am I'm forgetting to do?
    Regards,
    Mike

    Did you "detect" the camera prior to trying to establish a link?

    In CCDOps. Power up the camera with the Ethernet cable inserted, go into the Graphics/Comm Setup menu, select "Ethernet" as the mode of connection and then press the "Detect" button before pressing OK and exiting the menu. When you press Detect, it should find the camera, then press OK to close the box. Then go establish the link.

    Thanks Bill,
    That sounds easy to do, I'll try that on ccd ops. Will this also connect to the SKYX. After I establish the link with ccdops and close out ccdops? The Skyx also has ethernet connection
    Regards,
    Mike

    Bill,
    I'm able to connect to the Ethernet using Ccdops. Thank you!!
    I'm unable to connect to the skyx. I use the skyx, I selected Ethernet and put in the IP address. That's all skyx ask for. Are you familiar with skyx.
    Thanks again,
    Mike
