EM6325 Install CamLine Pro cameras on a Qnap NAS

  • Updated

Before we can set the camera on the Qnap Surveillance station, we first have to find the IP address of the IP camera. If you do not know the IP address of the camera, you can find it via the CamLine Pro PC software. 

TIP ! : To ensure that the camera always uses the same IP address, we recommend that you set a fixed IP for the camera when you want to add it to the Qnap Surveillance station. If you do not do this and the IP camera gets a new IP address because your modem / router has had a reset, the surveillance station can no longer record the camera images. 

  • First we have to find the IP address of the IP camera. If you do not know the IP address of the camera, you can find it via the CamLine Pro PC software or APP. Start the CamLine Pro software on your PC. click "+ -> LAN search". Your camera will now appear in the list with the Camera ID, behind it is the IP address and the port number.
  • Write down the IP address of your camera.
  • Now that you have noted the data of the IP camera you can log in to the Qnap NAS.
  • Log into the NAS by entering the IP address of the NAS in the web browser, or use the Qfinder software from QNAP and double click on the NAS.
