Using the web browser
This chapter describes how you can use the web browser interface to configure the
device, play back recorded video, search through event logs, and control a PTZ dome
camera. You can also specify settings on the web browser interface to optimize video
playback and recording performance when operating in a low or limited bandwidth
environment. Many of the browser configurations are similar to those done locally.
