How do I connect an IVC card to a HelixNet Main Station (HMS) over IP infrastructure?

To link an HMS to an IVC card over IP, the HMS must first be connected to an LQ unit in a Link-Group configuration. Once connected to an LQ in this way, the IVC 'virtual ports' are available to the HMS.

The Link-Group devices must be connected to the network and able to reach the IVC card over the IP infrastructure.

  1. Open the Core Configuration Manager (CCM) of any device in the Link-Group

Note: The expected latency of HelixNet to LQ to IVC is 100ms plus. This connection may not be suitable for a live environment.
