Rev. 072017 Page | 44
IMPORTANT.DW Spectrum allows adding Devices by IP Address, Host Name or Generic RTSP/HTTP Link
(advanced). See "Adding RTSP or HTTP Streams as Cameras (Admin Only)".
 To add several Devices at once, select Subnet Scan:
4. Enter the desired IP range to start scanning. By default, addresses 0-255 of the same subnet are suggested. As a
result, the entire specified network will get scanned for Devices. (Only scan C-Class subnet)
6. Specify authentication parameters in Login and Password fields (if needed).
7. Specify Discovery Port if needed. Most Devices are discovered on port 80, so it is better to leave on Auto setting.
8. Press Scan to initiate search. This can take a lengthy period of time (especially if IP Range is being scanned).
9. If Devices are located, they will be displayed in order.
If Device is already registered (manually or automatically), the selection checkbox is disabled and cannot be
selected for addition:
10. Select desired devices and click Add selected.
Devices should be added to Resource Tree.
Adding RTSP or HTTP Streams as Cameras (Admin Only)
Some camera models are not fully compatible with Onvif Profile S; therefore, will not work properly in DW Spectrum.
However, if such Cameras can provide streams by RTSP or HTTP, they can still be viewed and recorded.
Note: to add, it is important to check if a particular camera model supports this option plus know the exact
RTSP/HTTP URL of the stream. This information can be found in camera's guide or by contacting the manufacturer.
To add the stream use the standard manual addition procedure (see "Adding Devices Manually (Admin Only)").
