Tip: The IP address is determined by the configuration of the serial-to-IP converter. Each converter must
have a unique IP address.

The port number is determined by the configuration of the serial-to-IP converter. Some converters have
multiple ports. Each camera has a unique port number on its converter.
• Chain Address — Type the chain address number for the camera (1 to 7).
Chain addresses enable cameras to be daisy-chained, so that up to seven cameras can be connected to the
network through a single port on a serial-to-IP converter.
Chain addresses are set on the camera.
• Camera Name — This is the name of the camera, as you want it to appear within the control panel. After
you apply changes, the name appears in the camera list.
For more information about camera IP addresses, ports, and chain addresses, see "Installing Cameras" on
page 2–1.
