Applying Changes
Normally, the changes in the Configuration view take effect when you type or select the new value. The changes made here are not automatically adopted because they could potentially cause problems with the Network Settings. Instead, the Apply Changes icon in the Command bar turns red, indicating that the change is not yet in effect. To apply your changes, click on .

Storing the Configuration
If parameter values are changed, the Store Configuration icon turns red in the Command bar. Changes to the configuration are always stored in the camera temporarily. To ensure that the current settings are also used after the next restart, the changes must be saved permanently.

1. Click on Store Configuration . The program opens a system prompt. In the prompt, click on Store.
2. If you do not want to keep the changes, click on Discard. This discards the changes and restores the last permanently saved overall configuration.

Resetting to Factory Settings
The parameter values of the opened tab can be reset to the factory default settings. Click on  to do so.

Undoing or Repeating Changes
Click on to undo the last change. Click on to repeat the last change.

The Configuration bar on the right margin offers the possibility to change the settings of several cameras of a group without having to change the camera or the camera group.

Changing the Value for a Camera

1. If the Configuration bar is not already open, open it by clicking on the right margin in the application.
2. Click on the desired parameter name in the Basic Settings. It turns yellow and the Configuration bar shows all values associated with this parameter for this group. The cameras for which this value is set are assigned to the individual values.
3. Highlight the desired camera and drag it onto the parameter value you want to set. The destination area turns yellow.

Changing a Value for Multiple Cameras

If the same value is set for several cameras and you want to change this value, click on the parameter selection field in the Configuration bar. Then change the parameter value for the cameras configured the same way at once.
