Camera Setup
Detecting, Activating Changing the Camera IP Address
After networking the camera with the LAN, the user must obtain the camera’s IP address to connect to the
device. To obtain the IP address, the 3xLOGIC Camera (VISIC IP) Setup Utility, a software tool which can
automatically detect online network cameras on the LAN, add these devices to VIGIL Server and list the device
information including IP address, subnet mask, port number, device serial number, device version, etc… is
recommended. An example is shown in Figure 2-3.
This utility is installed alongside VIGIL Server or can be downloaded separately. If on a VIGIL Server system,
launch utility from
Start>Programs>VIGIL>Utility
or download the utility from the 3xLOGIC website’s
Software
Support Center > VIGIL Utilities
http://www.3xlogic.com/software-center
) to a Windows PC.
Steps:
1.
Launch the utility.
2.
Click
Detect Online Devices / Change IP Address.
