「Viewla(ビューラ)」は、IPネットワークカメラ Viewlaシリーズを視聴するためのアプリです。 カメラとスマホがインターネットに繋がってさえいれば、いつでもどこでもあなたのカメラへアクセスすることができます。 カメラの登録(追加)は次の2つを入力するだけ。とても簡単です。 ・カメラID ・カメラの視聴用パスワード 登録したカメラはワンタッチで視聴できます。 パン・チルトタイプのカメラなら、画面をスワイプして映像を上下左右に動かせます。 スピーカー内蔵のカメラなら、アプリを通じて声かけも可能です。 また、カメラにmicroSDカードを挿入していれば、録画映像を再生することができます。 大容量録画サーバー「NAS」が接続されている場合も同様です。 録画は"夜間だけ"や、"外出中の何か動きがあったとき(動体検知機能)だけ"など、細かくスケジューリングできます。 動体を検知した際は、録画と同時にプッシュ通知を受け取るようにしておけば、より安心です。 画質やネットワークなど、詳細な設定もスマホで行うことができ、カメラの管理にも利用できます。 対応機種 ・IPC-05Pro ・IPC-05ProⅡ ・IPC-06HD ・IPC-06FHD-T ・IPC-07w ・IPC-07FHD ・IPC-07FHD-T ・IPC-08w ・IPC-08FHD ・IPC-09w ・IPC-09wp ・IPC-16w ・IPC-16FHD ・IPC-16FHDp ・IPC-16FHDs ・IPC-16LTE ・IPC-19 ・IPC-19p
