Camera Administrator and User
This User's Guide explains use of the camera from the standpoints of the
administrator and the user. This distinction is difficult to make, because normally
the owner of a network camera is an administrator and a user. Therefore, the
following will explain the use of the camera from both standpoints.
The network camera serves five main functions.
(1) Viewing camera images
(2) Listening to sound from the camera
(3) Operating the camera
(4) Recording Images from the camera
(5) Configuring the camera
Whether each function is made available for the administrator and the user is
determined for both standpoints from consideration of "what will be done" with
the network camera. "Administrator" indicates the standpoint where all the
functions of the camera can be used and "user" indicates the standpoint where
functions such as the configuring of camera parameters are restricted. The
camera differentiates between the administrator and the user via authentication
at login.
The following shows the different functions that are available for the
administrator and the user.
