Applications
To specify settings on camera connection, you first need to add
the required devices, such as network cameras or network
encoders (IP video servers), to the system. Devices have their
own IP addresses and host names. The system identifies the
devices based on their IP address or host name.
Memo :
● Even though each device is managed using a unique IP
address or host name, in cases such as when multiple
analog cameras are connected to a network encoder (IP
video server), a multiple number of cameras may be
connected to a single device and thus share the same IP
address or host name. Although several cameras are
connected to one device in this case, this unit manages
the cameras on an individual basis.
● In addition to the network camera and network encoder
(IP video server), you can also add a number of dedicated
I/O (input/output) devices to the system. You can
configure and use the event settings for the I/O devices in
the same way as cameras.
● When a device is added to the system, it is listed on the
[Camera Recording Administator] screen. To add a new
device, follow the procedure below. Firstly, configure the
IP address and password of the device according to
instructions in the camera manual.
● You cannot add a camera for which there is user access
restriction. For details on access restrictions, refer to the
camera’s “Instruction Manual”.
● If the camera is registered with the user access restriction
set to ON, the camera is registered with access restriction
and unable to display live images unless the settings are
changed.
1
Select [Camera Record Setting] from the main
menu
2
Click [Add Device...]
● The [Device Setup Wizard] screen appears.
3
Enter the IP address or DNS host name that can
be identified by the system
● To enter the DNS host name, select the [Use DNS host
name] check box and click [Next].
Note :
● The Ahttp port 80B followed by AFTP port 21B are used by
default. To use a different port, click [Port Setup] and
specify the required port numbers. You may need to
specify a different port if the device is located behind a
NAT router or firewall. In this case, configure the router or
firewall so that it maps the ports and IP address used by
the device.
4
If an administrator password is specified for the
device, enter the password
● The password is usually set to [root] or [admin].
● Click [Next] without specifying [Autodetect Device].
5
Enter a unique name for the device that has
been detected
● The device is listed in the [Device Manager].
6
Click [Finish]
● To view the list of cameras connected to the device,
click the plus (+) sign to the left of the device name.
Memo :
● The camera names are set as [Camera1], [Camera2],
[Camera3], [Camera4], …etc. by default. To change the
name of a camera, select the device and click the camera
name.
● The camera number increases in sequence as new
cameras are added.
● Registration of the cameras can also be performed
automatically. (APage 109 [Auto Detect Settings])
Analog Cameras (VR-N900U)
In VR-N900U, analog input circuitry is considered a network
encoder (IP video server), and the IP address is set to
192.168.201.12.
This is registered as
A[N900](192.168.201.12)B on the Device
Manager of the [Camera Record Setting] screen. Cameras
connected to the [VIDEO IN1 to 4] input terminal at the rear
correspond to Cameras 1 to 4 of
AN900B. You can alter the
default name AN900B using the [Edit Device...] button. However,
the IP address A192.168.201.12B cannot be changed.
Memo :
● Audio signals that are input to [AUDIO IN 1/AUDIO IN 2]
on the rear panel are allocated as [Audio1] and [Audio2] in
[N900](192.168.201.12) on the [Device Manager].
Adding an Analog Camera (VR-N900U)
To add an analog camera manually when using VR-N900U,
specify
A192.168.201.12B as the IP address on the [Edit device
settings] screen. As no password has been specified, leave the
password entry field blank and continue to the next step.
Analog cameras are already added on VR-N900U by default.
