-- Install ConfigTool from dahuawiki.com on your PC. Run it to verify that it detects your
camera and shows it as IP address 192.168.1.108.
-- One the line showing the camera in ConfigTool, start the IE browser via the "web"
icon.
-- The camera web page should start. Enter the login as user: admin and password:
dahua50432 (or similar for other camera part numbers).
-- After a short delay, the video from the camera should appear. You can use the
pan/tilt/zoom controls to move the camera image.
Your WiFi or your system firewall should not have any effect on this.
CAN A CAMERA BE USE D WITH OTHER SOFTWARE AS WELL AS OTDAU AND
MC AT THE SAME TIME?
MC acquires triangulation-related data from the computer running the OTDAU software,
not from the camera itself. Thus, the normal way this works is for OTDAU to operate
the camera and pass info such as azimuth and elevation (pan and tilt) to MC.
MC also receives a reduced resolution image for display and storage from OTDAU. In
any case, an IP camera stream may be viewed on several applications at once. For
example, you can view and manually control an IP camera from the IE browser while
OTDAU is using it. The only constraint is you would not want some other application to
be sending PTZ motion commands to the same camera as OTDAU is controlling. MC
and multiple instances of OTDAU can all run on the same computer or different
computers since they communicate via TCP/IP within your LAN or the internet.
OTDAU can operate with any USB camera. In fact, it can use two at a time for
purposes of creating a wider field of view although only one (the "Wide-angle" camera)
will be used for target acquisition and tracking. OTDAU software is provided with a
large number of System configurations, each of which defines what cameras are in use
among other parameters. Besides various IP cameras, it includes those for cameras on
USB0, USB1 and USB2. Each System configuration calls out what Camera
configurations it uses for the "Wide" and "Telephoto" cameras. Thus, there are Camera
configurations for various resolutions of cameras for each USB port. You can also
modify or create any needed System or Camera configuration you need.
