The Register Other Cameras dialog allows defining the cameras you would like to use in the Multiwatcher screen. You can enter the cameras either manually or automatically (using Zeroconf/Bonjour).
To open the configuration dialog, click on the Manage Cameras link in the configuration page of the Multiwatcher.
Enter one of the following pieces of information for the camera:
If the camera's web server uses a port other than 80, add the corresponding port. Enter the port behind the actual IP address or name of the camera followed by a colon (e.g. 192.168.1.233:23335
or mycam.mynet.net:8080
).
If you would like to use a camera that is password-protected, enter the corresponding credentials as well. Make sure that you enter the proper User Name and Password.
Click on the Set button to activate your settings and to save them until the camera is rebooted. If you have added cameras or changed existing entries, the camera will automatically start a connection test, which will check if the cameras can be reached.
Note: | The automatic camera search feature uses the Zeroconf/Bonjour technology. Make sure that Zeroconf has been activated on all other cameras in the Ethernet Interface dialog so that the cameras can actually be found. |

Click on Scan network to start the camera search. The search takes about five seconds.
If new camera are found on the network, the camera enters their Zeroconf names in this dialog. New entries are highlighted in yellow. Click on the Set button to enter the defined cameras and to save them until the camera is rebooted. The camera will automatically start a connection test, which will check if the cameras can be reached.
If the camera finds no cameras or only cameras that are already listed, a popup window will inform you of this fact.
To delete one or more entries, activate the Remove option and confirm your selection by clicking on the Set button.
New or changed entries will be tested automatically. To test the connection to all cameras, activate the Test all entries option and click on Set.
The connection test will check if it can reach all other cameras listed in this dialog. When doing so, this camera will get and display the camera information, a preview image and information on the last alarm.
If errors occur, you should make the appropriate changes. The error message will give you a hint, which column of the entry requires corrections.
Klicken Sie auf Setzen, um die Einstellungen zu aktivieren und bis zum nächsten Neustart der Kamera zu sichern.
Beenden Sie den Dialog durch Klick auf Schließen. Hierbei wird geprüft, ob Änderungen der Gesamtkonfiguration vorliegen. Ist dies der Fall, werden Sie gefragt, ob die Gesamtkonfiguration dauerhaft gesichert werden soll.
