How to resolve Canon Software recording frame rate reduction?
If the Canon Software recording frame rate is reduced due to high load issues, modify the recording schedule. Check the current CPU usage and terminate any applications that are a heavy load on the CPU.
Why can't I view live images on Canon Software?
If you cannot view live images in Canon Software, and “Could not connect to camera” is displayed, check the camera’s power supply and network connection. If a message in the Viewer's timeline indicates a connection error, check the camera’s power and network connection. If the screen goes blank when switching layouts but reappears after a few seconds, reduce the number of cameras or decrease the frame rate.
Why can't I connect to Canon Software Storage Server from Viewer?
To resolve the issue of being unable to connect to the Canon Software Storage Server from the Viewer, verify that the login user name and password are correct. Also, check the network connection between the server and the Viewer, ensure the IP address of the destination server is correct, confirm the server replies to a ping from the Viewer computer, and check if TCP port 80 is being used by another application.
Why is Canon Software Storage Server disk space usage so high?
To address the issue of the Canon Software Storage Server disk space usage being higher than expected, especially if free disk space is low, consider the following: if the video quality setting of the camera is high, the amount of data per frame is large. If you are using anti-virus software, the software records communication between the Storage Servers and the cameras and the size of that log may reach several gigabytes. Change the anti-virus software settings to exclude the Storage Servers from the target list.
What to do if Canon Software Viewer slows down?
The Canon Software Viewer's performance depends on your CPU and graphics card. If the Viewer slows down, reduce the number of cameras or decrease the live frame rate. High video quality or resolution settings can also cause slowdowns; try adjusting these settings on the camera.
