What is Surf Pop?

Surf Pop is a new and innovative way for multi camera monitoring and sharing. Instead of the

traditional way of monitoring surveillance, Surf Pop brings a convenient and fun way to view all your

cameras through the internet or within the local area network. Now you can share your IP Kamera

with your friends, clients, relatives, and to anyone who is interested in seeing your IP camera. You can

also use Surf Pop to monitor your IP Kamera’s from all over the world as a multi camera monitoring

system.

With this software you can easily connect to your device using CNT technology from Aviosys. CNT or

“Cross Network Technology” allows users who may not be as tech savvy as others to easily view his /

her IP Kamera without having to port forward the device through the firewall. This can save one so

much time and efforts in setting up the device and allow the user to experience the camera instead of

Surf Pop Interface

The Surf Pop Interface is a very easy to use and familiar in format. Very similar to many chat programs

like AIM or Skype, Surf Pop allows you to easily manage your IP Kameras.

The Surf Pop interface consists four major parts which consists of the following:

Camera Display Area: The Camera display section will display information on the current camera that

is chosen.

Device Search bar: The device search bar is a quick and easy way to find your cameras simply by

typing in the device name of the device you are looking for.

Cameras Online: Cameras online are the cameras that the user has added from outside the network.

Local Devices (Cameras in the local Area network): Local devices are the cameras that are detected

within the Local Area Network.
