DETEXI NVR Server & Configuration
5.
I am configuring an Axis network camera in my NVR, but when I click the
Determine Camera Driver button, it tells me "
Camera’s driver could not be determined".
This message indicates that the NVR failed to communicate with the camera based on the settings configured. The three pieces of information required for the NVR to successful query the camera and determine the driver are:
- IP Address — The NVR needs to be able to communicate with the camera on this IP Address, so it should be in reachable IP range.
- Port — The HTTP port on which the camera communicates. By default, this port is usually 80.
- Camera Authentication — If a username and password is required to enter the Setup section of the camera, it needs to be defined on the Security & Alarm Tab of the camera definition. Typically, the administrative (or root) username and password should be entered in the Adm fields, and the other levels can be left blank.
If you have all of these settings defined, check that your camera is on, and accessible with these settings from the NVR Server machine.
