IP Cam Configuration

Setting up an IP Cam for use with the N299 is easy. In this example, we’ll setup a Vivotek PT7237 IP cam for use with the N299. Configuring a different IP cam will be slightly different depending on the model you are using, but this guide will outline the basics.

Follow the instructions included with your IP cam for installation. Once your IP cam is properly installed, follow the steps below to configure your N299.

Step 1: Connect the IP Cam to the N299

The first step is to connect your IP cam to the N299. To do this, login to the N299’s Web Admin Interface and select IP Cam Surveillance from the menu. The IP Cam Surveillance window will appear. Here, we will connect your installed IP Cam to the N299.

In this window, you will be asked to fill in some basic information about your IP camera. Let’s go through each field in order:

Location: Here, you can designate a location that the IP cam is located. For example, if the IP cam is currently monitoring your office, you can enter “office” in the blank. Choose a name that is meaningful will make it easier to refer back in the future.
