5 Searching and Accessing Camera – Device
Search
You will need to make the camera accessible for your network addressing.
For initial access to the IP Camera, you can do either of the following to Access the Device
Search in order to search and configure the camera’s network settings:

If you have an AdminCenter from DVTel Latitude, you can access the Device
Configuration Tool (Unified Configurator) from the Applications menu and then
click the DVTel HD Series button.

You can run the DeviceSearch.exe, which can be found in “DeviceSearch” folder
in the supplied CD.
The Device Search provides a central location for listing all the DVTel CM and CF camera
models accessible over the network. Once listed you can right click on each and access and
change the network settings.
Once the network settings are change you can search again to relist the units and then
configure the units via the web interface.
If you are working with DVTel Latitude, you will want to configure the unit with a static IP
rather than with DHCP to assure the IP address will not automatically change in the future
and interfere with configurations and communication.
Installing DVTel Web Player Software Online
For the initial access to the IP Camera, a client program, DVTel Web Player, will prompt for
installing to your PC when connecting to the IP Camera.
If the Web browser doesn’t allow DVTel Web Player installation, please check the Internet
security settings or ActiveX controls and plug-ins settings (see
Appendix B: Internet Security
Settings ) to continue the process.
Important: For users who have installed the DVTel Web Player (DC Viewer) in the
PC previously, please first delete the existing DC Viewer from the PC before
accessing to the IP Camera. For information on how to uninstall and clear Temporary
Internet Files, see
Deleting the Existing DC Viewer .
