Operation
Device Management – Add a device
Tap + to add a new device and you’ll see three options: EaZy, QR Code and Manual.
EaZy and QR Code are the options for the AVTECH products which support EaZy Networking. EaZy is used for both recorders and IP cameras while QR Code is used only for recorders.
EaZy Networking is a free P2P cloud service to connect AVTECH devices to the Internet automatically by plug-and-play, enabling you to check the live view via your mobile device or laptop at anytime.
When a device is configured to the internet via EaZy, the person who configures the device has the administrator permission of this device and also has the power to assign who can access the device remotely, by the web browser of Internet Explorer or the mobile app of EagleEyes.
When a device is configured to the internet via QR Code, everyone has the right to access the device as long as he/she is able to scan the QR code of the device. However, he/she can only access the device via the mobile app of EagleEyes. Internet Explorer is not supported.
Please check the product specifications or check with your installer to know if your device supports EaZy Networking. Otherwise, please select Manual. |
Tap Add to add a new device. Then, tap EaZy if the device is configurable with EaZy Networking and you need the administration power for remote access. |
