How to Setup Panasonic Cameras on a Mac
Fri/29-May-2009 Filed in: camera setup
I got the same question from a number of people asking me now to setup Panasonic cameras on a Mac platform.
As most people that bought these have come to find out, the support for Macs is not really there. That being said, these cameras still work good with a Mac, it's just that the instructions on using them aren't too prevalent.
Keep in mind that audio won't work cause Panasonic uses ActiveX technology - this is a Microsoft technology so only Internet Explorer users benefit from this, but all the other features work.
To set up and run your cam on a Mac, visit IP Camera Learning & Resource Center. This is an excellent tutorial on how to get this cam to work with your Mac.
One other note - You'll need an Ethernet Crossover Cable to do the initial setup.
