■Using the Camera Search Function
The camera search function automatically retrieves the IP addresses for all cameras connected to the network.
•This function configures the IP addresses all at once for the cameras found, eliminating the need to enter IP addresses manually.
•When there are overlapping IP addresses, you can specify a new IP address on the [Camera Setting] screen.
MEMO:
At the time of factory shipment, the IP address for every camera is set to “192.168.0.2”. When you connect multiple cameras with the factory setting, use the camera search function to configure the unique IP address to the cameras.
Note:
•When the confirmation dialog on firewall appears while performing the camera search function, disable the firewall function to allow the connection to the camera (see page 6).
•The camera search function may detect network devices other than cameras.

To change the IP address for a camera, you must first change the subnet mask and default gateway values (for the IP address) on the PC, according to the camera. Note that you must use the same subnet mask and the default gateway values as those for the camera.
4Click [OK].
The new IP address is transferred to the camera.
The [Edit IP Address] dialog closes, and the IP address in the [Search Camera] dialog is also updated.
Use the same procedure (steps 2 to 4) until there are no overlapping addresses remaining.
5Click [OK] in the [Search Camera] dialog. This operation closes the [Search Camera] dialog, and all the IP addresses displayed in the [Search Camera] dialog are automatically reflected in the [Camera Setting] screen.
Note:
If there are any overlapping IP addresses, the “IP Address Duplication Error!!” message is displayed. When this error occurs, configure the IP address again.
