Access the Camera
Now that the camera and the PC both have their unique IP addresses and are under the same
network segment, you can use
Microsoft Internet Explorer
on the PC to access the camera.
You can use
Microsoft Internet Explorer
to access the
camera.
When using Internet Explorer browser, the ActiveX control for video stream management will
be downloaded from the camera directly
– the user just has to accept the use of such control
when prompted so. No other third party utilities are required to be installed in such case.
The examples in this manual are based on Internet Explorer browser in order to cover
all functions of the camera.
Assuming that the
camera’s IP address is
192.168.0.100
, you can access it by opening the
Web browser and typing the following address into Web browser’s address bar:
http://192.168.0.100
Upon successful connection to the camera, the user interface called
Web Configurator
would
appear together with the login page. The HTTP port number was not added behind the IP
address since the default HTTP port of the camera is 80, which can be omitted from the
address for convenience.
