    If you can access the server using the dipmap (or dyndns, if that's what you're using) address with Multiview there shouldn't be a reason that Live View won't work with the same address. It should take you right to the Login screen.

     

    That is what is so baffling. What is even more odd is that my second computer at home that is networked to the host won't connect to the DV server using my ip address. That on is a Win 7 64 bit.

    OS is XP Pro, I have even added the IP address to IE with no luck. I have no problem logging in using Multiview, it is very slow and does not provide me the info that the GV server does.

    BTW, I have a dynamic IP and use the DNSClient to log in remotely via Simplevue geo and Multiview

     

    Thanks for the replies. I will keep trying.

    Until recently, in explorer I could just enter my IP address and from there I would log on to the GV server where I can view my cameras remotely.

     

    I am sitting behind a new computer and tried to do that to no avail. It has been a while since I set up the software. Is there anything I need to have running on a new computer to be able to log in to the GV server other than having the IP address of the host?

     

    BTW, I can use simpleVue Geo with my info and view my cams but nothing happens in explorer.

     

    Thanks for any help.

    I wished I could find that info on what port per cam if that was the case. Geovision 8.2 allows the installation of an IP cam and specifically the axis 221 but I have had no success being able to see the IP cam with the GV monitor.

    I know most of the time it is something so small that is missed since I am not a pro, my system is the only one I have messed with and it is for home.

     

    thanks again for you time

    The Axis Client software is used if you use Axis Camera Station to record your cameras.

     

    You do not need any client software to live view the cameras..... For remote access just port forward and type in your ip address in a web browser.

     

    Thanks, I can view the Geovision remotely via browser of live view. On port forwarding are there any other ports that I need to do the port forwarding on other than the ones used by Geo?

     

    thanks again

    I am new to IP cams. I have installed one axis 221 cam to play with and test. On server I can live view and view in web browser without problem.

     

    At another remote location, I have installed Axis Camera Station Client to use for remote viewing. I used the IP assigned to the cam at home, user name and password. I can't connect no matter what I do.

     

    Is there a port that needs to be forwarded on server for this to work. I do have a Geovision setup on same unit and I can do all the above.

     

    Also, is there any remote viewing software that can be used to view the Axis cam setup the is not from Axis?

     

    Any help and info is very much appreciated.

    I would like to know if what I am thinking is correct. I have a Geovision setup 4 cams that at no additional cost I can monitor remotely.

     

    Am I understanding it correctly that it is not the case with IP cams. There is a licensing fee plus monthly to be able to view remotely?

     

    This is one of very few issues I am not being able to get a clear answer on & would appreciate any information.

    Used to have service with static ip. I would use livevue to monitor my cams.

    Now I have new service (DSL) with dynamic isp. Every time my ip changes I have to forward to work to use with livevue or Multiview.

     

    I know there is a way around this, I have even registered with dipmap, I just am not sure how to work around this dynamic ip address.

     

    any help would be appreciated.

    A couple of months ago I had to reinstall the OS on my home computer. Prior to that with the GV 800 I could view my system remotely from work or anywhere via liveview or Multiview. I had cable for internet then.

    Since then and after the reinstallation I have DSL not wireless and I can view my cameras remotely but one thing I can't do now is enter my ip into internet explorer and have the Geovision log in window come up. I could have missed installing something that is key to being able to do that and I have tried everything I know and have went through the manual with no luck.

     

    I am using the 8.2 version. Thanks

    If you are interested, I purchased this new, box has been open to look at the contents. Once I read all the requirements to get one going, I knew I was over my head. I started with bullet cams for home use, upgraded to Panasonic 484 box cams and I love them. I figured it would be nice to have a semi-PTZ again until I found out there was a lot more to it than what I am using now with my geovision card.

     

    If interested email me with an offer at dmorcos@cablelynx.com , and if you live around the Hot Springs, Arkansas area and want to take a look just let me know and I will be glad to arrange that.

     

    I am also considering listing on ebay and if it makes you feel more secure about the transaction I will be willing to do that with a buy it now price that we agree on. My feedback is 217 at 100% on ebay. I can also provide pictures and numbers off the box and cam if needed.

     

    I just want to get rid of it since it is just sitting occupying space.

    I have been looking around for an outdoor cctv enclosure mount. All I have seen so far have been various shapes & sizes with the same adjustable attachment to the housing,

    1. the 360 deg rotation (with sufficient extension) on the horizontal plane.

    2. the limited vertical (up/dn) rotation.

     

    I am interested in knowing if one can get a mount for housing that has more of a ball head adjust ability as is available for camera mounts.

     

    Thanks for any input on the issue.

    Thanks for all the replies. I am a much more informed cctv user because of all the effort and the time all of you take to put into your replies.

     

    For me no fan or heater means less wire to run. The enclosures I am looking for are for Panasonic WV-CP484 box cams. I have Nuvicos outdoors and the are the best bullets I have tried, (I am no pro, just for personal use) but recently I have tried the aforementioned box cams and the capabilities, customization allowed puts this cam in a different league and makes this box cam fun to work with and setup, (custom setup with masking capabilities & such). So, I want tot put a couple outdoors and play with them.

     

    Thanks again to all of you.

    I am looking to buy an outdoor housing for a box cam. My question is how important is it to get one with,

     

    1. Heater (prevents fogging & ice in winter ????)

    2. Fan (for cooling in summer time I assume.)

     

    Cameras will be setup in central Arkansas.

     

    Thanks

    turn "Sens Up" off

     

    make sure SD3 is ON and adjust the level around "100"

     

    set DNR to low

     

    on B/W Auto1, set the level to "low" and the duration to 10 seconds, be sure to turn Burst "off" as well.

     

    Thanks for the info. I will be trying that setup tonight and will report back tomorrow I hope.

    I have been playing with a Panasonic WV-CP484 with a Fujinon D/N 2.7 - 13 mm attached.

    I am very impressed with what I have seen so far, and since I have it indoors for testing and getting familiar with the controls, I noticed this morning with some light coming in through the window it seemed to be trying to switch to color mode. I can turn the lights on and it will go color, but if I do not the picture looks as if someone has added a blue filter to the lense and I don't know what to do to make that go away short of turning the lights on. It is just a bad transition if it is the way it works.

     

    Do I have a bad camera or does it take this long to switch back and forth? Also, my BW setting is to Auto1. Is there a setting that I perhaps have changed that is causing this? Is there a test that can be done on this cam to check for all features/functions working properly?

     

    Thanks for any input.

    Funny... I guess my reply was before any attachment was available to view.

     

    rory, thanks for the focus guide, I will try it this weekend since my cam is easy to get to. What in your opinion is a good & reliable day&night bullet cam? I am going to start a thread for that since I can't find much on the subject.
