System Configuration

Introduction

The system configuration can be easily done remotely on Internet Explorer through the
Web interface. There are two wizards in addition to classified categories of system
configurations. They can give friendly instructions and facilitate the setup job.
Alternately administrators may type directly the URL of system configuration,
http://<IP address of Network Camera>/setup/config.html”, to directly enter the
configuration page. If administrators also want to set certain options through the URL,
read the relative section in the Chapter Advanced Usage for reference. Network Camera
also supports FTP to modify the system configuration file, CONFIG.INI, for technical
usage. The details are described in the Chapter Advanced Usage.

Since it is a networking video server, administrators should run “Setup wizard” or well
configure “Security”, “Network” and “Video” at least. To support external serial port
devices, configure “COM port” and then “Camera Setting” in “Video”. To utilize the
built-in features of security and web attraction, run “Application wizard” or configure
Application” and “Demo”. Besides these features, administrators can adjust the
system date and time in “System”, or have different homepage layout by configuring
Homepage layout”. Network Camera also provides some system maintenance like
View log file”, “View parameters” and “Factory default”.
