Configuring the Unit
Using the Unit with Secure Closed IPTV
1)
Connect the camera to a Closed IP Network switch using Cat5 network cable. The POE version
of this camera will work with the DM/NSW/CPP model switch. The non POE version of the
switch works with the DM/NSW/CP model switch. The POE version will also work with DM/
NSW/CP model switch if connected to a POE injector and separate power supply.
2)
Ensure that the Closed IP NVR or Console that the switch is connected to is in Configuration
mode to allow new cameras connect.
3)
Power up the camera and wait for the on-screen acknowledgement on the monitor attached
to the Closed IP NVR or Console. Alternatively check the Camera Overview web page on the
Closed IP NVR or Console to determine out the camera status.
4)
Once the camera has been detected and added, remember to secure the switch by moving out
of Configuration mode, failure to do this will leave the Closed IPTV system unsecured.
Locating the Unit IP address for cameras on general networks (non Closed IP)
The unit is configured using on-board webpages. This can be done remotely once the unit has been installed
in its chosen location, using the web browser on a PC in the same subnet as the unit.
The unit web pages can be accessed using the unit IP address or DNS name. The unit has DHCP factory
enabled. When the unit is connected to a DHCP network for the first time, an IP address is automatically
assigned by the network switch or router it is connected to. Most routers will have the facility to enable
DHCP and DNS, if it is not available, contact your network administrator.
The default DNS address for each unit is factory set as the serial number. This address can be found on the
serial label on the unit or via the packaging the unit came in.
If DHCP and DNS are not available, the IP address can be found by connecting an analogue monitor to
the BNC connection of the camera. The unit IP address is displayed on the analogue video output for 10
minutes from powering the unit on.
The DNS or IP address can be typed directly into the address bar of a web browser.
Note:
If subsequently the unit is assigned a fixed IP address, its DNS address can no longer
be used
Note:
The unit’s DNS address can be changed subsequently to something more memorable
or meaningful than its serial number by editing the System name option in the System
configuration page.
