1.Introduction
In order to use ONVIF client, the following requirements need to be met.
►Your computer (or mobile device) and the camera access to the same LAN.
►Your camera has been successfully set up. We suggest to keep the firmware up-to-date.
Some ONVIF clients have the capability to automatically detect cameras on the same LAN. If due to you router's configuration, the auto detection
cannot be guaranteed. Pls type in the following URL and add it manually:
http://X.X.X.X :5000/onvif/device_service (X.X.X.X is your camera IP)
Current version we provide two ways for you to find your camera's IP address, one is through SricamPC, another ways is through
sricam APP on smart phone.
Of course, you can find the IP address by other ways such as logging into your router's web interface and find the camera's IP.
Informatively, the following RTSP URLs are used for playing live streams: rtsp://your camera IP:554/onvif1
