For ONVIF-compliant cameras, Nx Witness provides direct access to a device web page from within the client.
There are two ways to access a device web page. For all devices, there is a link in the general device settings. In addition, for the most widely-used cameras, Nx Witness is able to pull proprietary device parameters such as authorization, network settings, and display controls into the client where they can be configured directly.
From the General tab
1.Select a camera and open the Camera Settings -> General tab.
2.If the device requires authentication, enter camera credentials in the Authentication section. See "Configuring Device Authentication". (A user must have "Edit camera settings" permission to perform this function.)
3.Click on the Web Page link. The browser will open device’s web page.
From here you can control settings such as display size, JPEG refresh rate, PTZ and focus speed, etc.
Note: A web page may be inaccessible because it is located on a different network. To check device accessibility, press the Ping button prior to opening the web page.
From the Advanced tab
1.Select a camera and open the Camera Settings -> Advanced tab.
2.If the device supports it, there will be a Web tab in this dialog.
3.When you click on the Web tab, the device's web page will open within the tab.
4.Enter authentication parameters if required.
