Network access

This manual explains how to configure the camera over the network with a web browser.

TruVision IP cameras can be configured and controlled using Microsof t Int er net Explorer (IE) and other browsers. The procedures described use Micr os of t Internet Explorer (IE) web browser.

Checking your web browser security level

When using the web browser interface, you can install ActiveX controls to connect and view video using Internet Explorer. However, you cannot download data, such as video and images due to the increased security measure. Consequently you should check the security level of your PC so that you are able to interact with the cameras over the web and, if necessary, modify the Active X settings.

Configuring IE ActiveX controls

You should confirm the ActiveX settings of your web browser.

To change the web browser’s security level:

1. In Internet Explorer click Internet Options on the Tools menu.

2. On the Security tab, click the zone to which you want to assign a web site under “Select a web content zone to specify its security settings”.

3. Click Custom Level.

4. Change the ActiveX controls and plug-ins options that are signed or m arked as safe to Enable. Change the ActiveX controls and plug-ins options that are unsigned to Prompt or Disable. Click OK.

- or Under Reset Custom Settings, click the security level for the whole zone in the

Reset To box, and select Medium. Click Reset. Then click OK to the Internet Options Security tab window.

5. Click Apply in the Internet Options Security tab window.

Windows 7 and Windows 8 users

Internet Explorer for Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating systems have increased security measures to protect your PC from any malicious software being installed.

To have complete functionality of the web browser interface with Windows 7 and Windows 8, do the following:

• Run the Browser interface as an administrator in your workstation

• Add the camera’s IP address to your browser’s list of trusted sites

4 TruVision 12/32 Series IP Camera Configuration Manual

To add the camera’s IP address to Internet Explorer’s list of trusted sites:

1. Open Internet Explorer.

2. Click Tools, and then Internet Options.

3. Click the Security tab, and then select the Trusted sites icon.

4. Click the Sites button.

5. Clear the “ Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone box.

6. Enter the IP address in the “Add this website to the zone” field.

7. Click Add, and then click Close.

8. Click OK in the Internet Options dialog window.

9. Connect t o t he c am era for full browser functionality.

Accessing the camera over the internet

Use the web browser to access and configure the camera over the internet. It is recommended that you change the administrator password once the setup is

complete. Only authorized users should be able to modify camera settings. See “User management” on page 53 for further information.

To access the camera online:

1. In the web browser enter the camera’s IP address (default is 192.168.1.70). Use the tool, TruVision Device Finder, a feature of the TruVision Device Manager included on the CD to find the IP address of the camera.

The Login dialog box appears. Note: Ensure that the Active X controls are enabled.

2. Enter your user name and password. User name: admin Password: 1234

3. Click Login. The web browser window appears in live view mode.

Overview of the camera web browser

The camera web browser lets you view, record, and play back recorded videos as well as manage the camera from any PC with Internet access. The browser’s easy-to-use controls give you quick access to all camera functions. See Figure 1 on page 6.

If there is more than one camera connected over the network, open a separate web browser window for each individual camera.
