PX supports up to two webcams. You can use a "powered" USB hub to
connect webcams if needed.
After connecting a webcam, you can retrieve visual information from
anywhere through the PX web interface. If your webcam supports audio,
audio is available with videos.
For more information on the Logitech webcam, see the user
documentation accompanying it.
To connect a webcam:
1. Connect the webcam to the USB-A port on the PX device. The PX
automatically detects the webcam.
2. Position the webcam properly.
Important: If a USB hub is used to connect the webcam, make sure it is a
"powered" hub.
Snapshots or videos captured by the webcam are immediately displayed
in the PX web interface after the connection is complete. See
Viewing
Webcam Snapshots or Videos
(on page 300).
