Navigating the Configuration Windows
After you access the configuration windows as described in the “Accessing the IP Camera Windows”
section on page 2-6, a window appears that includes the following components:
• Navigation tree—Appears at the left of the window and provides links to each configuration window
• Basic Setup window—Appears at the right of the window
The navigation tree always appears. The right area varies depending on the configuration window that
you choose from the navigation tree.
You can perform the following activities from when any configuration window is displayed:
