make configuration changes and view live video using the DRS Web Interface. In order to make these changes, you can connect to the IP Camera from any PC on your network. The PC must meet below requirements
2. OS - Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows XP or Windows Vista
3. Browser - Internet Explorer 9.0 or Mozilla Firefox 8.0
4. VLC Media Player Software 1.1.10 or 2.0.0 – can be downloaded from the DRS IP Elite
Camera directly through the DRS Web Interface or from http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
4.9 CAMERA DISCOVERY AND IP ADDRESS
To connect to the IP camera for the first time and make initial configuration settings, the IP address must be discovered. It is recommended that the installer have access to the DHCP server to enable direct lookup of the IP Address corresponding to the MAC address of the camera. The procedure for this is network specific.
By default, when the IP camera powers on, it attempts to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server in the network. If the camera cannot obtain an IP address through DHCP within a reasonable time, it will default to an IP address of 192.168.0.200 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
In the event that the installer does not have access to the DHCP server, Windows Network tool can be used to locate the camera. The below instructions can be used for Windows 7 and Windows XP.
Windows 7 OS: Click on Start, Click on Computer and Click on Network. A list of devices connected to your network will appear as below. Double Click on the name (DRS WM IP Elite) of the camera to launch the default browser. You can see the IP address of the camera in the Browser URL.
Figure 20 Camera Discovery with Windows 7
Windows XP OS: The procedure for discovering the IP address of the camera using Windows XP requires activation of Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) service. Further details can be found in the DRS WinXP UPnP procedure document.
ONVIF test tools or other 3rd party tools may also be used to discover the camera.
