To upgrade a camera connection license from analog to IP, you must disable the camera
inputs on the encoder card.
Procedure
-
From the Config Tool homepage,
click the About tab.
-
Click the Omnicast™ tab and verify the number of cameras
listed next to Number of cameras and analog monitors.
For example: 16 / 16.
-
Open the Video task.
-
From the entity tree, click the video unit that corresponds to the encoder card.
-
Click the Peripherals tab and select the cameras you
need to disable.
You can select multiple cameras by pressing Ctrl and clicking the
cameras.
-
At the bottom of the Peripherals page, click the red
circle ()
to disable the cameras, and then click Apply.
The disabled cameras are grayed-out and a red dot is shown to the left of each
disabled camera in the list.
-
On the About page, verify that the number of cameras is
accurate.
You might need to restart Config Tool to refresh the number of
cameras.
Note: If a camera that you disabled recorded video, the camera is
shown in the entity tree in the Security Desk
Monitoring task. You can view playback from that
camera.
