The following are descriptions of how to monitor images from the camera on a PC.
1.1.1 Monitor camera images
1. Start up the web browser.
2. Enter the IP address designated using the Panasonic “IP Setting Software” in the address box of the
browser.
• Example when entering an IPv4 address: http://URL registered using IPv4 address
http://192.168.0.10/
• Example when entering an IPv6 address: http://[URL registered using IPv6 address]
http://[2001:db8::10]/
<Example of IPv4 access>
1 Operations
<Example of IPv6 access>
IMPORTANT
• When the HTTP port number is changed from “80”, enter “http://IP address of the camera + : (colon)
+ port number” in the address box of the browser. (Example: http://192.168.0.11:8080)
• When the PC is in a local network, configure the proxy server setting of the web browser (under
[Internet Options...] under [Tools] of the menu bar) to bypass the proxy server for the local address.
Note
• Refer to page 163 and page 168 for further information about the case in which “HTTPS” is

264) images and users who are receiving JPEG images. Depending on the set values for “Bandwidth
control(bit rate)” and “Max bit rate (per client)*”, the maximum concurrent access number may be 24
or less users. When 24 users are concurrently accessing, the access limit message will be displayed
for users who subsequently attempt to access. When “Multicast” is selected for “Transmission type” of
“Stream”, only the first user who accessed to monitor H.265 (or H.264) images will be included in the
maximum number. The second and subsequent users who are monitoring H.265 (or H.264) images
