FLIR camera control
If a compatible FLIR M-series camera is available on the Ethernet network, you can display the
video and control the camera from the system.
When the connection is established to a compatible FLIR camera, the menu changes to
include access to FLIR camera controls.
Ú
Note: You can take over camera control from any unit connected to the Ethernet
network.
Establishing connection with the FLIR video camera
When a video panel is active, the unit automatically recognizes the compatible FLIR camera if
it is available on the Ethernet network.
Ú
Note: When there is a DHCP server present on the Ethernet network, the FLIR camera
needs to be configured and set to have a Static IP Address before the connection can be
established. For instructions on how to configure your specific FLIR camera model, refer
to FLIR documentation.
Ú
Note: Only one FLIR camera can be connected to the Ethernet network.
When you activate a video panel, the system starts searching the Ethernet network for a
compatible FLIR camera.
Lost connections are indicated on the panel. Select the indication to re-establish the
connection.
When the connection is established the menu changes to include access to FLIR camera
control.
