 Connecting Wirelessly 

 The first step is to connect to your  PL8RDR  device via wireless connection. To do so bring up your systems  Network Settings by following the steps below 

 Click on the  Windows Home Button  and start typing  Control Panel .

It should pop up under Best  Match as you are typing.

 Connect to pl8rdr.opscom 

 First make sure  Wi-Fi  is turned on by clicking the network icon at the bottom right of your screen. You will see a list of networks available to you. In this case we are looking for the  pl8rdr.opscom  network. 

 

 Clicking the  pl8rdr.opsom  network will open a screen where you can click on  Connect  to join the network. You can also utilize the  Connect automatically check box do avoid having to connect manually each time. 

 

 Since the network is secured a password/PIN is required to connect. Click on  Connect using a secure key instead to bring up a seperate password entry field. 

 

 Enter the password into the empty field and click on  Next . 

 Note: The password is provided by OPSCOM. If you do not know your password please contact support@ops-com.com 

 

 You will be prompted to allow your PC to be discoverable by other PCs on this network. Click  No  as you do not want this connection to be open to other PC's. 

 

 You will see the connection status below the  pl8rdr.opscom  network appear as  Connected .  

 

 Connect to the Camera 

 Now you can open a browser and enter the IP address of your camera in the go to field. 

 You will also need to follow the IP address with a port number. For mobile cameras the port number is 1080 therefore the URL would look like this: http://[IPAddress][colon][port number] as in the example below you can see the URL as http://10.42.0.140:1080 

 If you do not know the IP address of your camera see  How to Find the IP Address of your Camera found below.

 How to Find the IP Address of your Camera 

 On the handheld unit go to main menu and tap on  LPR Scanning . 

 

 Once in the LPR screen tap on  Status  near the top right of the screen. 

 

 You will see a list of connected devices. The device  Type  should be  Tattile camera wifi.  

 Please note that due to new cameras coming onto the market, your PL8RDR may list a camera as an unknown device. 

 

 In this case the cameras IP address was  10.42.0.140 . Enter the IP address for your device with port  :1080  into the browsers URL and hit  Enter . 

 

 The below screen shot is taken after the cameras have read some plates.  

 Notice the "stats" entry which clearly lists the camera IP addresses. 

 Also note that sometimes the system is not able to determine which device is a camera.
