Network Remote / VMS

Several types of third-party Video Management System (VMS) systems are supported by FLIR
IP cameras. Because these systems tend to evolve and change over time, contact your local
FLIR representative or FLIR Technical Support if you have any difficulties or questions about
using this feature.
Select the Network Remote / VMS link on the left side of the page to configure the camera to
operate with a VMS Interface. By default no VMS Interface is configured; use the pull-down to
select the appropriate type of VMS and click the Add button.
The New Device Creation screen will appear. Set the communication parameters to match the
remote system and click on the Create button.
After the device is created, click on the Save button to save the configuration, and then restart
the server.

ONVIF

The most common choice for Network Remote / VMS is ONVIF v2.0. The ONVIF (Open
Network Video Interface Forum) is an open industry forum for the development of a global
standard for the interface of network video products. An ONVIF-compliant VMS can be used to
control a FLIR camera, display video, and access up to 50 pan/tilt presets.
Contact your local FLIR representative or refer to the FLIR web site for application notes on how
to configure the camera to work with specific third-party VMS packages.
