3.

Enter the password in the 

Destination password

 field.

4.

Set the user password of all the remote stations to be 

accessed using this password.

Setting destination 10 to the IP-address 0.0.0.0 overrides its 

function as the tenth address to try.

11.1.5

Video transmission

If the device is operated behind a firewall, select 

TCP (HTTP 

port)

 as the transfer protocol. For use in a local network, select 

UDP

.

To enable multicast operation, select the 

UDP

 option for the 

Video transmission

 parameter here and on the 

Network

 page.

Note:

In the event of an alarm, a larger network bandwidth is 

sometimes required for additional video streams (if multicast 

operation is not possible). 

11.1.6

Stream

Select a stream to be transmitted.

11.1.7

Remote port

Select an appropriate browser port depending on the network 

configuration. The ports for HTTPS connections are only 

available if the 

On

 option in 

SSL encryption

 is selected.

11.1.8

Video output

If a decoder device is used, select the analog video output to 

which the signal should be switched. If the destination device is 

unknown, select the 

First available

 option. This places the 

image on the first video output with no signal. 

The connected monitor only displays images when an alarm is 

triggered. 

11.1.9

Decoder

If a split image is set for the selected video output, select a 

decoder to display the alarm image. The decoder selected 

determines the position of the image.
