How to add IP
Cameras on the
TVN40 Once you have successfully configured
the TVN40, right-click on the TVN40 and
select Add Cameras. The Add Cameras
dialog will appear. This form is
designed to quickly add IP Cameras to
the system WITHOUT having to do deep
configuration of the IP Camera upon
time of addition. We have selected
default configurations for each IP
Camera that keep the bit rates low
enough to allow for video viewing on
most networks. Users can go back after
the cameras have been added and
viewed to make changes to those
default settings as required. This design
allows for users to quickly get up and
running and view video - IP Camera
configuration tweaks can be made after
that.
The following fields are available:
Camera Name - user-defined alpha-
numeric field
Manufacturer - select option
Type - select option
Model - select option
IP Address - enter the Static IP Address
as it is configured on the IP Camera
Username / Password - This is the
username and password for the IP
camera itself. If you have changed the
username or password for the IP
Camera, use the appropriate credentials
per your changes.
Next Camera Button - If you are adding
multiple cameras to the TVN40, simply
click this button after you fill out the
information for the first camera. Upon
clicking the button, you will see the
camera populate under the TVN40 in
the Navigator, but the Add Camera form
will remain up, so you can rapidly enter
the next camera, and so on. Repeat as
many times as you have cameras.
There is a 12 or 24 channel limit on the
device.
Save - upon finishing the data entry for
ALL IP Cameras, click the Save button.
This will send the IP Camera
configuration data for ALL cameras to
the TVN40.
