Troubleshooting
Before you contact your Canon dealer or service outlet, check the items listed below. If a log
message is displayed, refer to the log message list for the log details and the appropriate response.
The VB-C50Fi does not start up.
Check that the AC cable is connected correctly.
Switch the VB-C50Fi off and then on again ( P.2-6).
VBSetup.exe does not work.
Check that the LAN cable used for setup is connected correctly.
Try turning off the power to the VB-C50Fi, then turning it on again ( P.2-6). There will no
longer be any effect on VBSetup.exe 20 minutes or more after power is turned on.
Check to see if the VB-C50Fi and the PC running VBSetup.exe are connected to the
same network segment.
The VB-C50Fi sample page does not appear.
Check that the LAN cable is connected correctly.
Check that the VB-C50Fi network settings are correct. In particular, check that the IP
address, subnet mask and default gateway address settings are valid for the network you
are using.
If you have changed the IP address, the new IP address does not take effect until the VB-
C50Fi is rebooted.
If access control for the VB-C50Fi is being used, check the settings ( P.3-20).
Check that the IP address or URL settings in the viewer software are correct.
When using the router’s NAT function, be sure the VB-C50Fi’s IP address in the Web
page is correct ( P.5-26).
The video does not appear.
Check that the viewer software is correctly installed ( P.7-6). Please refer also to the
Viewer Software User’s Manual (Viewer-E.pdf) contained on the supplied CD-ROM.
If the video quality is poor, check the quality settings on the VB-C50Fi ( P.3-7). Also, check
settings such as the number of background colors as on the viewer PC.
You can limit the number of viewers that can access the VB-C50Fi at the same time.
When this limit is exceeded, a message is displayed instead of a video ( P.3-16).
If you cannot see the video using the Viewer for Java, check your system environment
such as the browser version ( P.1-4). To use the Viewer for Java, you need to install Java
VM beforehand. See the web site for more details.
