Network access
This manual explains how to configure the camera over the network with a web
browser.
TruVision IP cameras can be configured and controlled using Microsoft Internet
Explorer (IE) and other browsers. The procedures described use Microsoft Internet
Explorer (IE) web browser.
Checking your web browser security level
When using the web browser interface, you can install ActiveX controls to connect and
view video using Internet Explorer. However, you cannot download data, such as video
and images due to the increased security measure. Consequently you should check the
security level of your PC so that you are able to interact with the cameras over the web
and, if necessary, modify the Active X settings.
Configuring IE ActiveX controls
You should confirm the ActiveX settings of your web browser.
To change the web browser’s security level:
1. In Internet Explorer click Internet Options on the Tools menu.
2. On the Security tab, click the zone to which you want to assign a web site under
“Select a web content zone to specify its security settings”.
3. Click Custom Level.
4. Change the ActiveX controls and plug-ins options that are signed or marked as
safe to Enable. Change the ActiveX controls and plug-ins options that are
unsigned to Prompt or Disable. Click OK.
- or -
Under Reset Custom Settings, click the security level for the whole zone in the
Reset To box, and select Medium. Click Reset.
Then click OK to the Internet Options Security tab window.
5. Click Apply in the Internet Options Security tab window.
Windows 7 and Windows 8 users
Internet Explorer for Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating systems have increased
security measures to protect your PC from any malicious software being installed.
To have complete functionality of the web browser interface with Windows 7 and
Windows 8, do the following:
• Run the Browser interface as an administrator in your workstation

Accessing the camera over the internet
Use the web browser to access and configure the camera over the internet.
It is recommended that you change the administrator password once the setup is
complete. Only authorized users should be able to modify camera settings. See “User
management” on page 53 for further information.
To access the camera online:
1. In the web browser enter the camera’s IP address (default is 192.168.1.70). Use the
tool, TruVision Device Finder, a feature of the TruVision Device Manager included
on the CD to find the IP address of the camera.
The Login dialog box appears.

2. Enter your user name and password.
User name: admin
Password: 1234
3. Click Login. The web browser window appears in live view mode.
Overview of the camera web browser
The camera web browser lets you view, record, and play back recorded videos as well
as manage the camera from any PC with Internet access. The browser’s easy-to-use
controls give you quick access to all camera functions. See Figure 1 on page 6.
If there is more than one camera connected over the network, open a separate web
browser window for each individual camera.
