2 Basic Operation and Configuration
The FLIR Sensors Manager uses a "client/server" architecture. The FSM software is considered a
client, and the cameras are considered servers or sensors. The Sensors Panel in the upper left of the
window indicates no sensors have been discovered and added to the list of Active Sensors.
No sensors
discovered initially
Click on Setup, if required, then the Discovery button on the side panel to bring up the Discovery
Panel. The FSM software can automatically discover FLIR cameras on the network.
When the Discovery Panel is displayed, click Refresh. The FLIR camera will appear in the list of
Discovered Sensors. The camera will be called "FLIR", and the asterisk in parenthesis "(*)" indicates
the camera has not been added to the list of Active Sensors on the right.
Click on the center bar ">" to move the camera over to the list of Active Servers.
The name of the camera should appear in the Sensors Panel, with a green joystick
icon.
By default, the FSM software will automatically discover sensors in the network,
connect to the first camera it finds, take control of the camera, and display the video from the camera
in Video Wall 0.
Click on Video Wall 0 and confirm that video is streamed to the monitor and it is possible to control
the camera using the pan/tilt/zoom controls in the Control Panel. For example, click on the zoom
button (magnifying glass with +), and the video will zoom to 2X. Once operation of the camera has
been confirmed, the camera can be configured to an IP address that matches the installation network.
