CONFIGURATION USING A WEB BROWSER
In addition to the aforementioned configuration using a terminal program, which only covers the most basic settings, a web browser is the
tool of choice for a more complete configuration. To accomplish this, the system features a complete HTTP server.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher is the recommended browser.
WEB SERVER CONCEPT
1.
Start your web browser.
2.
Connect to the URL http://IP-Address, where IP-Address is the IP address of the unit you want to configure. Use the standard dot-
separated format (x.x.x.x) to enter the address. The home page is displayed along with the video from the camera.
The HTTP server provides nine separate pages for configuration.
You can return to the home page from any other page by clicking the PelcoNet log. Clicking the Pelco
®
 logo while on the home page
immediately transfers you to the Pelco Internet home page, provided the network allows for Internet access.
In order for live video images to be decoded, the special ActiveX control file must be installed on your PC. The latest version of ActiveX
comes on the PelcoNet CD.
