First time to connect a GigE camera to Linux but no camera appears in eBus Player?

Issue:
Can't connect to my GigE camera for the first time on Linux


Solution:
By default setting, JAI camera uses DHCP function on and Persistent IP function off:

GevCurrentIPConfigurationDHCP=True

GevCurrentIPConfigurationPersistentIP=False

With defaul setting of Linux ( for example Ubuntu), eBus Player cannot find camera.

Following these steps to connect camera for the first time:

1. Open LAN setting by clicking following icon (in green frame), and then click "Wired Settings":

2. Click the gear icon:

*if there are many Ethernets, you can disconnect your camera to check which ethernet the camera is using.

3. In "IPv4" tab, choose "Link-Local Only" for "IPv4 Method":

4. Additionally, set "MTU" to 9000 in "Identity" tab:

With these setting, now you can find your camera in eBus Player.

 

If you want to use Persistent IP function, then change these setting in camera:

GevCurrentIPConfigurationDHCP=False

GevCurrentIPConfigurationPersistentIP=True

GevPersistentIPAddress=192.168.xxx.xxx

GevPersistentSubnetMask=255.255.255.0

And set IPv4 Method to "Manual":

Finally restart camera and eBus Player.
