How to Use This User’s Guide Jumping to a related page When you read the User’s Guide on the computer display, you can click on a sentence to jump to a related page. Software display examples Note that the displays shown in the User’s Guide are explanatory examples. Some displays may be different from the ones that appear in actual use. The illustrations of the camera and menu display in the User’s Guide show the SNT-EX104 video network station as an example.
Preparation The Preparation section explains what the administrator has to prepare for monitoring images after installation and connection of the camera. Preparation Assigning the IP Address to the Camera To connect the camera to a network, you need to assign a new IP address to the camera when you install it for the first time. Before starting, connect the camera, referring to “Connecting the Camera to a Local Network” in the supplied Installation Manual.
The welcome page appears (in SSL communication). Accessing the System Using the Web Browser After the IP address has been assigned to the unit, check that you can actually access the system using the Web browser installed on your computer. Use Internet Explorer as a Web browser. Start the Web browser on the computer and type the IP address of the unit in the URL address bar. The viewer window is displayed.
Tip The software is optimized for Internet Explorer using medium font. To display the viewer correctly To operate the viewer correctly, set the security level of Internet Explorer to Medium or lower, as follows: Preparation 1 Select Tools from the menu bar for Internet Explorer, then select Internet Options and click the Security tab. 2 Click the Internet icon (when using the camera via the Internet), or Local intranet icon (when using the camera via a local network).
Basic Configuration by the Administrator Preparation You can monitor the camera image by logging in with the initial conditions set for this video network station. You can also set various functions according to the installing position, network conditions or purpose of the camera. We recommend you configure the following items before monitoring images from the camera. Setting contents Setting menu Set the format of the image sent from the unit.
Precautions for Preventing Access to the Camera by an Unintended Third Party Preparation The camera may be accessed by an unintended third party on the network, depending on the usage environment. Changing the user name and password of the camera administrator from the default settings is highly recommended for security reasons. If the camera is accessed by an unintended third party, there may be an undesired effect, such as operations or settings to block monitoring, etc.
