General Device is a generic driver that supports nearly all devices from a particular camera vendor. 

There are 2 types of generic drivers:

  1. General device. Most configuration of General Device-connected cameras is performed via the web interface of the device. A detailed list of supported features is given on the Documentation Drivers Pack page.
  2. generic. When connected via a generic driver, the configuration of the device is read and transferred to Axxon One. After that, you can configure the device from within Axxon One.

Connection via generic drivers is available for the following devices:

Devices connected via General Device drivers are findable via the IP device discovery wizard. The method for adding them to the system is the same as for ordinary devices (see IP 장치 추가 및 제거).

Note

Axis devices are affected by a special restriction: if the user name and password for device access do not equal the default values, the number of channels for the device is not discoverable. Therefore, all non-integrated devices whose user name and password for device access do not equal the default values will be shown in search results as 1-channel General Devices.

You should always select a generic driver manually. 

If a IP device is not displayed in search results, you can add it manually:

  1. In the form for manually adding an IP device, select the device manufacturer from the list (1).
  2. In the Model field, select General Device or generic (2). For Axis and Bosch General devices, select the number of channels on the device.
  3. Enter the IP address and port for the device connection (3).
  4. Enter the user name and password for connecting to the device (4).
  5. Click the  button.

Addition of the device is now complete.

Attention!

If a device, connected via a generic driver, is temporarily not available or it has incorrect connection settings, then it is not added to the configuration.
