If the web browser doesn’t allow DVTel Web Player installation, check the Internet security settings or ActiveX controls and plug-in settings to continue the process. See Appendix B: Internet Security Settings.

Important: Users who have previously installed the DVTel Web Player (DC Viewer) on the PC should first delete the existing DC Viewer from the PC before accessing the camera. For information on how to uninstall and clear Temporary Internet Files, see Deleting the Existing

DC Viewer.

To configure the communication settings of the CM-3211-xx camera:

1.) Connect the camera to the network on the same VLAN/LAN as the workstation. You can use a cross-cable to directly connect it to the machine.

2.) If your network supports the default, open the DeviceSearch by doing one of the following:

a.) If you have the AdminCenter in Latitude, you can access the Device

Configuration Tool (Unified Configurator) from the Applications menu and then click the DVTel HD Series button.

b.) Run the DeviceSearch.exe which can be found in the “DeviceSearch” folder in

the supplied CD.
