Clicking on
Manual Add
will open a window over the
Remote Device
window. Within the
Manual Add
window, some information may already be displayed but it may not be correct
for the device you are intending to connect. You will need to enter the Internet IP address that
you obtained from
CanYouSeeMe
in the previous section. Attempting to get the number
using a different network than the camera’s, such as that which your NVR is connected to will
not work.
Channel
- Select an available channel to which you want to assign this device. If you have
other cameras connected to your NVR, this will default to the first available channel.

4.2 USING THE WEB SERVICE APP
You may also access IP cameras that are not directly connected to an NVR using the
Web
Service
app. If you are on the same network as the camera, then enter the local IP address
shown in
ConfigTool
into a browser address window. For cameras on a different network,
you will need to use the address obtained using
CanYouSeeMe
. In either case, the operation
will remain the same. You will not be able to access a camera directly connected to your NVR
using the Web Service application.
PICTURE 4-11
Accessing the camera will bring up the login
screen for the program. If you are connecting
locally, the default video stream will be the
larger Main Stream. Selecting WAN from the
choices in the
Login
window will default to
the lower-bandwidth Sub Stream. You can
choose to switch between either stream
once you have connected using the tabs
above and to the left of the video display.
The amount of activity on the network(s) can
affect the streaming rate from the camera to
your computer or mobile device.

LIVE VIEW
When you have logged in, you will see a live
view from that camera.
Live View
is the
default mode for the Web Service program.
TCP is the default protocol. Use of the
Multicast protocol for streaming requires it to
be set up in your router.
The main function of the
Live View
window is, of course, to display the video stream from the
camera. There are additional settings available from the tabs located to the upper right of the
video image. The operations of these will be covered on the following pages.
Function Buttons (PC only)
PC users have three functions that can be
performed while in Live View and the buttons
for these are located immediately below the
tabs in the upper right:
Digital Zoom
- After clicking this button, click
and drag on a section of the video image to
enlarge it.

You will be able to set the location where video and still images are saved onto your
computer’s hard drive in the
Camera
option under the
Setup
tab.
