System Requirements

Network and processor bandwidth limitations might cause the video stream to pause or appear pixilated when additional Web-interface users connect to the camera. Decrease the images per second (ips), resolution, compression, or bit rate settings of the Web interface video streams to compensate for network/processor limitations.

The following system requirements are needed to use a web browser with the camera:

•Processor—Intel Core 2 Duo microprocessor, 2.6 GHz

•Operating system—Microsoft Windows XP

•Memory—2 GB RAM

•Network interface card—100 megabits or greater

•Monitor—Minimum of 1024 x 768 resolution, 16- or 32-bit pixel color resolution
