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 the Microsoft Internet
Explorer (IE) web browser.
Checking web browser security level
When using the web browser interface, ActiveX controls can be installed to connect and
view video using Internet Explorer. However, data such as video and images cannot be
downloaded due to the increased security measure. Check the security level of the PC
to enable interaction with the cameras over the web and, if necessary, modify the
Active X settings.
Configuring IE ActiveX controls
Confirm the ActiveX settings of the 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 be assigned to a website 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 then select Medium. Click Reset, and then click OK in the
Internet Options Security tab window.

protect a PC from malicious software.
