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 Microsoft Internet
Explorer (IE) and other browsers. The procedures described use Microsoft 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 may not be able to download dat a,
such as video and images, due to the browser’s security settings. Consequently you
should check the security level of your browser 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 marked 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 Applyin the Internet Options Security tab window.
Windows users
Internet Explorer for Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 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, Windows
8, and Windows 10 do the following:
• Run the Browser interface as an administrator on your workstation
• Add the camera’s IP address to your browser’s list of trusted sites
TruVision Series 4 IP Camera Configuration Manual 5
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 to the camera for full browser functionality.
Accessing the camera over the network
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 66 for furt her in for ma ti on.
To access the camera online:
1. In the web browser enter the camera’s IP address (default is 192.168.1.70). Use the
TruVision Device Manager included on the CD to find the IP address of the camera
and assign it a new address on the local network, if desired.
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 access to the same network as the camera.
The browser’s easy-to-use controls give you quick access to all camera functions. See
Figure 1 on page 7.
If there is more than one camera connected over the network, open a separate web
browser window for each individual camera.
