To do so, open internet explorer and click on Help>About Internet Explorer. To access your camera with Internet Explorer, is important to know what version is currently installed in your computer. Internet Explorer is the only web browser that will work without any add-ons, and is in fact the only browser supported 100% with our DVRs/NVRs and IP cameras. I suggest to only change IP Address related settings and not change the ports. Select the resultant IP address and here you can change some settings such as port, IP address, mask, etc. Open the finder and click on refresh, the result will show below: The first step to connect to the camera is to find its IP. The best way to approach this is by downloading and using the TP-IP Series Search Utility. These cameras come with a default IP of 192.168.1.2 or sometimes will be set to DHCP. Like any IP based device it will require to know its IP address, or at least have a way to find it. Some settings such as brightness, sharpness, WDR, etc need to be adjusted depending of the environment where the cameras are mounted. The settings and access setup is the same throughout the entire TP-Series Cameras. In my opinion and as a rule of thumb I always configure each device first to avoid any misconfigurations, then I will end connecting these to the recorder.įor this demonstration I will be using an IPID-TP2MPIR50L2812-W. Some ONVIF products require to have certain features turned ON before integrating with any equipment that is not from the same brand. One of the greatest thing about this new line is the variety of models we are offering from bullet style, varifocal & fix lenses to small ball domes that can be installed in no time.Īs I mentioned before, Onvif (Open Network Video Interface Forum), is an Open Industry aimed to facilitate the communication of IP based video products with other devices that are not necessarily from the same manufacturer. Today I will introduce our new line of ONVIF cameras (our TP Series) with a new and elegant style, that promise to be an easy and great setup for your CCTV needs. Onvif Cameras have become very popular these days and many companies are adopting this new open protocol to integrate with other equipment brands.
