6 Calling up the Camera via
Computer
To call up the user interface of the camera, enter
its IP address in the address bar of the program
Windows Internet Explorer (IE, version 6 or high-
er) . The IP addresses of the computer and of
the camera must be in the same subnet . The
number of simultaneous accesses to the camera
is limited to 6 .
When the camera is called up, the log-in
window will appear . Select the language for
the user interface . The description below refers
to English . Then enter the user name and the
password (default setting for both: admin) . In-
dividual log-in data can be defined later in the
camera settings .
Important: To prevent unauthorized access, make sure
to change the password .
The Flash Player extension from Adobe provided
on many computers (also available on the CD
provided) will allow a basic display of the camera
image . Faster image transmission and availability
of all functions, however, require installation of
the ActiveX extensions . These extensions will be
