Datapath Wall Control - Manual (Page 120)

Model Name
Type the model name into the Model Name edit box. The name can be up to 31 characters long with no leading or trailing
spaces and must be unique with respect to the names of all other camera models.
Login Credentials
The Login Credentials edit boxes can be used to set a default user name and password for the camera model. These
credentials will automatically be set for any cameras that are subsequently configured for this camera model (although they
can be overridden for individual cameras if necessary).
Path
Use the path edit box to enter any model specific path information that Wall Control-red must combine with the IP address or
host name in order to access the IP-Camera’s stream. This information can typically be found in the IP-Camera’s
documentation or by contacting the manufacturer. If the IP-Camera is part of an existing security system then this information
may be extracted from the URLs currently being used.
The purpose of this path control is to save the user from having to type in the full URL for every camera of the same model.
Please take care to ensure that only the Path is entered into this edit box and not the IP address or host name. For example if
the full URL was “rtsp://10.0.0.2/Mediainput/mpeg4” then the path would be “Mediainput/mpeg4” or if the URL was
“rtsp:/axis.mynetwork.co.uk/mpeg4/1/media.amp” then the path would be “mpeg4/1/media.amp”.
Click the Remove button in the Camera Models tab to remove the selected camera model. Please note it is not possible to
remove pre-configured models. It is also not possible to remove a model associated with any open IP-Camera window. If an
attempt is made to remove a model used by one or more open windows then an error box is displayed and the operation will
fail.
When the Remove button is selected for a model in use by one or more cameras that have been added to Wall Control-red the
following dialogue is displayed. This dialogue will list the names of the cameras used by the model being removed. If the user
selects the
Remove button then all of these cameras will be removed along with the camera model itself.
