Working with the Quick-Connect Device's Web Interface
Quick-Connect USB and Quick-Connect USB Mini devices have their own web interfaces. Other Quick-
Connect devices have no network connectivity, so they do not have web interfaces and do not need to be
configured for your environment.
In addition to the administrative control pages, the Quick-Connect USB and Quick-Connect USB Mini web
interfaces provide minimal camera controls, which are normally used with older cameras. For full camera
functionality, use the IR Remote Commander or the camera's web interface.
Because the web interfaces for the Quick-Connect USB and Quick-Connect USB Mini are very similar, in
many cases only the Quick-Connect USB web interface is shown in this manual.
During initial set-up and configuration, you may find it convenient to access the web interfaces for the
camera and the Quick-Connect USB or Quick-Connect USB Mini on separate browser tabs.
Getting the Quick-Connect Device's IP Address
To access the web interface of the Quick-Connect USB or Quick-Connect USB Mini device, you will need
to know its IP address.
n
The Quick-Connect USB device displays its IP address on its front panel.
n
The Quick-Connect USB Mini device's IP address is 169.254.1.1, and is not configurable.
Note
If a RoboSHOT camera is used with a Quick-Connect USB or Quick-Connect USB Mini device in a non-
DHCP environment, the camera and the Quick-Connect device will default to the same IP address. You
will need to configure the camera with a different IP address before connecting it to the network.
