Camera Not Working In Client Mode

Attempting to get this kit up and running. I've got the base running in client mode at last, and the camera is plugged in. Both are solid green status, and ARC is connected. When I try to add the camera control, it shows the same IP as the EZB device under "Video Device". When I hit "Start", I get a continuous stream of the following two errors:

ezbv4 camera image render error: System.ArgumentException: Parameter is not valid.
at System.Drawing.Bitmap..ctor(Stream stream)
at EZ_B.Camera.E0xvOtux46(Byte[] )
at EZ_B.EZBv4Video.FGGTJPKZna(Int32 , Object )
ezbv4 camera image render error: System.Runtime.InteropServices.ExternalException (0x80004005): A generic error occurred in GDI+.
at System.Drawing.Bitmap..ctor(Stream stream)
at EZ_B.Camera.E0xvOtux46(Byte[] )
at EZ_B.EZBv4Video.FGGTJPKZna(Int32 , Object )

Can't seem to get it to work at all. Any ideas?

In client mode your IP address must be detected by the camera control. There's a scan button just like the connection control. It's the same ip.

That's what it needed: the port number. Thanks!
