2.9 Camera Mapping through GV IP Device
Utility
The GV IP Device Utility program can search and manage all the available IP devices on the same
LAN, making it time-effective to map the connected IP cameras to channels. For convenient
management, you can also save one or multiple sets of configurations and apply them according to
your needs.
To set up multiple IP cameras through GV IP Device Utility:
1. Click the Configure button (No. 14, Figure 1-2), select General Setting, select Camera / Audio
Install, and select IP Camera Install. The IP Device Setup dialog box appears.
Figure 2-8
2. In the IP Device Setup dialog box, select IP Device Utility. This window appears. All the
available IP cameras on the LAN are detected and listed in the window.
Figure 2-9
3. To map the desired IP camera to a channel, drag the IP camera from the Camera List to the
desired channel number in the Dispatch Pattern section.
4. By default, the login username and password for the IP camera both are set to admin. If the
added IP camera does not use the default settings, you need to right-click the IP camera in the
Dispatch Pattern section and select Login User Information to modify its login information.
