    (e.g. 192.168.1.2). Apart from the standard ports 80 for HTTP and port 443 for HTTPS, C-MOR can also be used over the alternative port 9000 (for HTTP) and port 9443 (for HTTPS). These alternative ports are used when C-MOR is accessed over a firewall and the respective ports on the firewall are already in use by other applications.

  • Page 12: Start Page

  • Page 24 All PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) functions are available for the iPad, too.
