properly set up, go into the IMS-4000 ConsoleView Software. Cameras are added to the IMS by
expanding the Settings menu and right-clicking on the word Cameras. Choose Add Camera. This
will bring up the Camera Setup screen (see below). Enter the IP address, port number, and security
settings (if required) of the camera according to how it has been configured on your network. See
sample screen below:
Select the camera type by clicking on the drop-down arrow and selecting the camera. Click OK
when Finished.
Up to 128 cameras can be configured in an IMS system. These can be a mix of Axis cameras, Axis
camera servers, and Panasonic devices. Once the camera(s) have been configured they can then
be associated with a particular Host or Node so that links for these cameras will appear within the
menu tree for the chosen unit. You can associate a camera with more than one device if desired. To
associate one or more cameras, right-click on Cameras within the menu tree for the selected host or
node. See screen sample below.
The window on the left lists all cameras programmed into the system. The window on the right lists
cameras associated with the selected Host or Node. To move a single camera to the other window,
highlight the camera and click the single left/right arrow. To move all cameras to a new window,
simply click the double arrows. This will copy all listed cameras to the other window.
If you click on Cameras you will see thumbnails of all associated cameras. To view a large image
of a particular camera, simply click on the image.
Caution: The Panasonic and Axis cameras are Ethernet devices. They should be connected
to your Ethernet network only. They do not connect directly to your IMS-4000 Host or Node
unit. Connection of either the Panasonic or Axis Cameras directly to your IMS-4000 may cause
undesirable results.
