2.4 Basic Camera Configuration
The following procedures describe how to do the most common bench test camera configuration
steps, such as setting the camera IP address and hostname and changing the user passwords. To
make these changes, it is necessary to login using the admin account. Additional setup and
configuration options required after the camera has been installed in its final location are described
after the basic steps are given, refer to Advanced Configuration, pg. 42.
2.4.1 Setup Menu
The Setup menu is used for GEO Settings (Latitude and Longitude location), Video setup, thermal
(IR) camera setup, and defining Video Analytics motion detection zones. For additional details, refer
to Setup Menu, pg. 42.
Adjustments to the IR settings should only be made by someone who has expertise with thermal
cameras and a thorough understanding of how the various settings affect the image. In most
installations, the only camera settings needed are available from the Web Control panel on the Live
Video page (Scene Presets, Polarity, Palettes, and AGC). Haphazard changes can lead to image
problems including a complete loss of video. Additional information is provided in Thermal Image
Setup, pg. 47.
When a user logs in as admin, a complete Maintenance menu is available (refer to Maintenance
Menu, pg. 54). The Maintenance menu also provides access to other configuration options.
