Identification
Camera name

The name is used for remote identification, for example,
in the event of an alarm. Choose a name that makes it as
easy as possible to identify the location unambiguously.
Camera ID
Each device should be assigned a unique identifier that
can be entered here as an additional means of
identification.
Each video channel can be given a name. Click the +
sign to add an extra line.

User Management

Password
A password prevents unauthorized access to the device.
You can use different authorization levels to limit
access.
Proper password protection is only guaranteed when all
higher authorization levels are also protected with a
password. Therefore, you always have to start from the
highest authorization level when assigning passwords.
You can define and change a password for each
authorization level if you are logged in as service or if
the unit is not password protected.
Enter the password for the appropriate authorization
level here.
The maximum password text length is 19 characters and
no special characters are allowed.
The device has three authorization levels: service, user,
and live.
– service is the highest authorization level. Entering the
correct password gives access to all the functions and
allows all configuration settings to be changed.
– user is the middle authorization level. At this level you
can operate the device, play back recordings, and also
control camera, for example, but you cannot change
the configuration.
– live is the lowest authorization level. At this level you
can only view the live video image and switch
between the different live image displays.
Enter Password
Define and change a separate password for each level.
Enter the password (19 characters maximum; no special
characters) for the selected level.
Confirm password
Re-enter the new password to ensure that there are no
typing mistakes.
