Encoder - general
- Activate or deactivate the camera or encoder.
- Enter the name of the network camera.
- Select the protocol type (http or https), and then change the port number, if necessary.
- To test the incoming camera signal, click the Browser button. The browser defined in the system settings ("standard browser") starts up, and the camera image is displayed in the browser window.
- The application programming interface (API) is identified automatically. If the API version cannot be retained, ask Support for the correct assignment of the API version to the camera firmware.
- If necessary, change the DeviceManager Server.
Note: if you change device managers after recordings have been made to the first device manager, those recordings will be orphaned and inaccessible. The regular aging process will not eliminate the data. Contact OnSSI Tech Support for instructions on manually purging this orphaned data.
- Specify whether separate
authentication is to be required for the camera and, if necessary, enter a user name and password.
- Select Virtual cameras to display and save multiple image details from a camera as a separate camera. The image details can then be specified in the virtual camera configuration (see Virtual camera (image detail)).
This function is only available for specific camera models
After activation of the virtual camera function, multiple virtual cameras are automatically created. The number of virtual cameras depends on the camera model. They are configured similarly to a standard camera.
