Access to the network camera via the Internet Explorer
Defining a password to prevent unauthorised access
For security reasons, the administrator should define a new password immediately. After the new
administrator password is stored, the IR dome network camera asks for the user name and password every
time it is accessed. The administrator can define up to twenty (20) user accounts. Every user has access to
the IR dome network camera, but not to the system configuration. Some system-critical functions are
reserved for the administrator, such as system configuration, user administration and upgrading software
programs. The administrator's user name is always root and cannot be changed. Following a password
change, the browser displays an authentication window and asks for the new password. After changing the
password, you cannot restore the original administrator password. Your only option is to reset all default
factory settings/parameters.
To enter the password:
Open the Internet Explorer and enter the IP address of the camera
(e.g.: <http://192.168.0.99>).
You are prompted for authentication:
You are now connected with the IR dome network camera and can see a video stream.
Note: It may happen that your PC's security settings prevent a video stream. You can change the
security settings to a lower level under "Tools/Internet Options/Security". Make sure you enable Active X
Control Elements and Downloads.
