LOCAL DESKTOP ACCESS USING A WEB BROWSER

Your camera comes equipped with the latest version of ﬁrmware that will allow you to access your camera from most

mainstream browsers without the use of a plugin. We recommend however when accessing your camera to use Google

Chrome since it is the most widely used and most efﬁcient way to access your camera. The camera will not work on older

browsers such as Internet Explorer or other outdated browsers.

Mac users can use Safari or other compatible browsers as well to access their camera from a web browser.
