The name simplifies the management of multiple devices in more extensive systems.The camera name is used for remote identification, for example, in the event of an alarm. Enter a name that makes it as easy as possible to identify the location unambiguously.5.2.2 PasswordA password prevents unauthorized access to the device. The device recognizes three authorization levels: service, user, and live.–service is the highest authorization level. Entering the correct password gives access to all the functions of the camera and allows all configuration settings to be changed.–user is the middle authorization level. This user can operate the device, play back recordings, and also control a camera but cannot change the configuration.–live is the lowest authorization level. It can only be used to view the live video image and switch between the different live image displays.Use the various authorization levels to limit access. Proper password protection is only guaranteed if all higher authorization levels are also protected with a password. For example, if a live password is assigned, a service and a user password should also be set. When assigning passwords, always start from the highest authorization level, service, and use different passwords.PasswordDefine and change a separate password for each level while logged in as service or if the device is not protected by a password. Enter the password (19 characters maximum) for the selected level.

Therefore, click Set immediately after entering and confirming the password, even if you plan to assign a password at another level.5.3 Date/TimeDevice date, time and zoneIf there are multiple devices operating in the system or network, it is important to synchronize their internal clocks. For example, it is only possible to identify and correctly evaluate simultaneous recordings when all devices are operating on the same time.As the device time is controlled by the internal clock, it is not necessary to enter the day or date of the week. These are set automatically. The time zone in which the system is located is also set automatically.Click Sync to PC to apply the system time from your computer to the device.Note:It is important to ensure that the date/time is correct for recording. An incorrect date/time setting could prevent correct recording.
