Connect an Illustra camera to VISEC.
Illustra is a professional range and its cameras are ONVIF conformant, so VISEC finds them with a scan. Like most professional cameras they insist on a password of your own before they will talk to anything, and the ONVIF settings sit with the network configuration.
Press scan.
VISEC searches your network for ONVIF cameras and lists what it finds. If your Illustra camera already has ONVIF switched on, it appears here and you are watching live in a few seconds — nothing below is needed.
If the camera does not appear.
Menu names move around between firmware versions, so treat these as the place to look rather than an exact path.
