Flow of Camera Operation through to Network Operation

For detailed instructions on individual procedures, refer to the pages shown below.

■ User names and operating privileges

Two types of user name shown below can access the camera and are authenticated by password during the login

process.

How the user can operate the camera depends on the user name used for accessing the camera.

If a “guest” user tries to perform an operation not included in his privilege, the authentication dialog appears. In this

dialog, entering the user name and password for an administrative user (“admin”) will enable the user to perform all

operations.

• Up to 16 users can access the camera simultaneously.

• Whatever the number of users accessing the camera simultaneously, only one user can access the camera as an

administrative user (“admin”).

Note:

Up to 16 users can access the camera simultaneously, however, depending on the environment of use, image and

voice renewal may become slower as the number of connected users increases.
