Use a PoE switch or external adapter. If both are connected, the DC power supply takes priority.

Port Settings


Figure 39: WebGUI > NETWORK > Port Settings

You can define specific ports for the different streaming outputs and protocols the camera supports.


Make sure these settings don’t interfere with other uses and services on the same network.

    Click SAVE to apply your settings. A small confirmation dialogue appears in the bottom right corner.


NETWORK - Ethernet

In this section, you can specify the IP settings for the Ethernet adapter.

Connecting via LAN

Avonic IP cameras can be controlled by any device using the VISCA over IP protocol (see the command list in Appendix A - VISCA Settings and Command List).

Settings

By default, the IP address of the camera is "192.168.5.163" with "admin" for both the username and password. The control parameters for the CM93 series cameras are as follows:

  • IP Address: 192.168.5.163
  • Username: admin
  • Password: admin
  • TCP or UDP port: 1259

IP (Network) Connection

Execute the following steps to connect an Avonic PoE camera to a LAN:

  1. Use a standard (PoE) switch. If the unit is simultaneously connected to both PoE and its own power supply, the power supply will take priority. If the power supply is disconnected while PoE is present, the camera will remain operational without interruption.
  2. Ensure that addressing is done via IP. When using VISCA over IP, the ‘x’ in all the ‘8x’ addresses is always ‘1’, where the VISCA address in a VISCA over IP environment is always 1. (See Appendix A - VISCA Settings and Command List for more information.)

  1. Check if the Low Power Mode is set to ON. If so disable it.
