Accessing the IP Device

Accessing the IP Device

The first time you access the device, the Live Video page appears. By default, you are viewing the video as a public user and only have access to the single stream live view.

If, for security purposes, users should not be allowed to view video without first logging in to the camera, change the permissions for public users.

To log in to the device, follow these steps:

Step 1 Open the Web browser.

Step 2 Type the device’s IP address in the browser address bar.

Step 3 Click the Login button in the navigation bar; a dialog box appears.

Step 4 Type your user ID and password.

Note If you are logging in to the camera as the administrator for the first time, the default User ID and Password are admin (all lowercase). For security purposes, change the password after you log on for the first time.

Step 5 Click Log In.
