Add IP Cameras Using Autodiscovery​

Use the automatic device discovery feature to find all available devices. This method is of great help when dealing with large amounts of cameras, and also when exact addresses of devices are not available.

  • Navigate to the Configuration section.
  • Select Devices from the left-hand menu.
  • In the upper panel, click the down arrow next to the New Device button and select Find Devices.

  • In the scan parameters dialog:
    • Select the appropriate Scan Mode.
    • Add ONVIF Ports (commonly 8000, 80, or 554). Refer to your camera vendor's manual for correct port information.
    • Enter the list of camera Usernames and Passwords.
  • Click OK to begin scanning.

  • After scanning completes, review the found devices and their channels.
  • Select the devices you wish to add by checking the boxes next to them.
  • Click Add selected devices and channels to complete the addition.

Add Simulated Cameras​

info

Simulated cameras allow the use of a video file as a video source. Video files must be in AVI format, encoded as MPEG4 AVC h.264; video files exported from Luxriot EVO Monitor or Portable Player will work, too, provided that they were exported as AVI with JPEG compression.

  • Navigate to the Configuration section.
  • Select Devices from the left-hand menu.
  • Click the New Device button to open the device creation dialog.
  • Enter the Camera Name.
  • Select the Camera Model as Emulation (Video File).
  • Click OK to submit.

  • After creating the emulation device, go to its channel's properties.
  • Specify the full local path to the target video file.

Manage Devices and Channels​

Device and channel management are accessible via the Luxriot EVO Console Configuration section, by choosing the Devices or Channels category in the menu on the left
