In the factory default settings, the setting of [mDNS] is enabled, but to prevent unauthorized use by third parties, disable it after the initial network settings are completed. Wireless LAN [Wireless LAN] (P. 62) allows users to access and operate the camera directly. If it is unnecessary to connect the camera to a computer or mobile device using a Wireless LAN, set [Wireless LAN] to [Disable]. RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) By using [RTP Server] (P. 57), video and audio data can be delivered to the specified multicast address. It is recommended to set [RTP] to [Disable] when the devices connecting to the camera do not require RTP protocol. Standard Communication (IP), NDI|HX, RTMP When using [Standard Communication (IP)] (P. 64), [NDI|HX] (P. 64), and [RTMP] (P. 65), it is possible to distribute videos using each protocol or operate the camera. If it is unnecessary to connect the camera to a device using these protocols, set each item to [Disable]. Important • [Video Distribution] under the [User Authority] (P. 71) is not reflected to the RTP. • When using NDI|HX or RTMP, access control is disabled from the [User Management] (P. 70). Precautions When Disposing the Camera When disposing the camera, initialize the camera and delete all setting information such as network settings and administrator account. For camera initialization, refer to Settings Page (P. 80). When disposing the camera, set [Network Settings] to [Do not save].
