Connection through ONVIF Generic driver

With the ONVIF Generic driver, you have the following options:

1. Currently offline cameras can transfer their settings when they get back online.
   To make it happen, follow the steps below:
   1. Add a camera via the ONVIF Generic driver (see Generic Drivers (General device, generic)).
   2. When the device comes online, reset its parameters (see Applying and resetting settings).
   3. Load the configuration from the device (see Applying and resetting settings).
2. You can select another camera in object settings while keeping all layouts, macros and archive storage parameters.
   To make it happen, follow the steps below:
   1. Add a camera via the ONVIF Generic driver (see Generic Drivers (General device, generic)).
   2. Set archive storage parameters and create macros.
   3. In Camera object settings, specify a new IP address and user credentials (see The Video Camera Object). 
   4. Reset device settings (see Applying and resetting settings).
   5. Load the configuration from the device (see Applying and resetting settings).
      This operation will result in swapping cameras without the need to create a new object and remove the old one.
