This example shows how to connect an IP-based PTZ camera.

The device and camera must be on the same network.

Using Static IP

1. Connect the PTZ camera and TAO 1tiny 2 to the same network switch.
2. Obtain the camera IP address from the manual or control panel.
3. Go to the Options page and disable DHCP.
4. Manually set the device IP. Make the first three segments identical to the PTZ camera IP to ensure both are on the same network.
5. Click Save .

Adding a Stream URL

Ensure TAO 1tiny 2 and the PTZ camera are on the same network.

The device supports ingesting PTZ camera video via standard network protocols. A valid stream URL is required for connection.

1. Most stream URLs follow a common format, for example: rtsp://[ip_address]:[port]/[path]. Replace variables as follows.

   a. IP address: static IP configured for the PTZ camera, or dynamic IP assigned by the router.

   b. The username, password, and stream path: refer to the PTZ camera manual.

2. On the Streaming Pulling page, enter the channel name and stream URL.

3. Enable the switch for this stream URL, you can see the video feed in the preview area under the Dashboard page.

4. On the Signal Switching page, select IP1.

5. The HDMI output will switch to the camera feed.
