for their applications. To perform network bandwidth test:
1. In [Setup] > [Network], click on [Network Bandwidth] located on the left menu to start.
2. Wait for Internet Explorer to prompt for the installation of Java plug-in. Then click on the text to
accept.
3. Camera begins detecting connection speed.
4. Once speed diagnostics is done, camera will advise current user on network speed. See below
example:
The message indicates that currently connected network has a bandwidth to support up to 10 network
cameras of identical bit rate settings (either on Stream 1 or Stream 2). If the message shows a less favorable
result, go to [Setup] > [Video] to lower current video bit rate values
