To configure the camera for the first time, do the following:

3.6.1 Discover the Camera and Configure for Networking
By default, DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is enabled on the camera. If the camera
cannot connect to a DHCP server, the camera’s default IP address is 192.168.0.250.
•
If the camera is managed by FLIR’s Horizon or Meridian VMS and the VMS is configured as a DHCP
server, the VMS automatically assigns the camera an IP address. That IP address appears in the
DNA Discover List.
•
If the camera is managed by FLIR’s Latitude VMS or is on a network with static IP addressing,
manually specify the camera’s IP address using the DNA tool.
To view and configure the camera via a LAN, you must attach the camera via the network switch or
router to the same subnet (network segment or VLAN) as the computer that manages the unit.
FLIR recommends using the DNA tool to discover the camera on the network.
To install the DNA tool and discover the camera on the network:
Download version 2.3.0.20 or higher of the DNA tool from
the FLIR Quasar™ Premium Bullet pages
(see 2.2 Accessing Product Information from the FLIR Website). Save the ZIP file on a
computer running Windows on the same VLAN to which you will connect the camera.
Unzip the file and then run the
dna.exe
file by clicking the
icon.
DNA opens and the camera appears in the Discover List.

To manually specify the camera’s IP address using DNA:
If this is the first time you are configuring the camera or if it is the first time after resetting the camera to
its factory defaults, DNA automatically authenticates the camera with the default password for the
camera's admin user (
admin
).
1. If the admin user password has been changed, you need to authenticate the camera.
In the DNA Discover List, right-click the camera and select
