7.4 Device Name and Number
Before configuring any settings the camera requires a device name and device number.
This ensures that each camera is individual and when multiple cameras are used on one site then
each camera can be easily identified.
Navigate to:
Configuration > System > General
The example below shows the Device name set as
Office
and the Device/Camera number as
01.
Field Name
Description
Device Name
Enter a short name here to identify the camera.
Device/Camera Number
If using multiple similarly named cameras, identify the second
and subsequent cameras from the drop down list.
When changing the device number a popup appears asking
if FTP and Alarm host defaults should be initialised, select
allow.
Click
Save
after making any changes
The camera will then reboot (takes approximately 1 minute to reboot) and apply the name and
number to the FTP folder structure.
This is also used to initialize the alarm server i.e the port number will be set to 5000 plus the
device number. So the port for device number 01 is 5001, the second 5002 and so on.
