Enable snapshot mode for more users
The maximum users that can view Network Camera at the same time are twenty.
Administrators can check “Allow more guests with snapshot mode” to enable the
snapshot mode for more users. Then the users over twenty will have the main page with
snapshot mode instead of normal motion picture. It is practical for web attraction. In
such case, configure the “Snapshot interval” to achieve better performance. The
bigger interval between snapshots, the more users can have snapshot mode work.
Demonstration account
To setup Network Camera for demonstration to the public, administrators need to choose
the service(s) to be permitted. After checking “view” in Security page , users may use
“demo” as general user name and password is not required. Administrator also can
assign the “Control Camera ” or “ Control Do” option to demo accout.To separate the
demo account from primary users can prevent from interfering with the normal
operations.
