Right-click on the detected camera address to open it in Safari.

An easy way to install and configure your AirSight HD and AirSight SD Camera's (XX39A & XX59A) using an Apple Mac is to use IP Scanner 2.5. IP Scanner is a free tool by an independent publisher.

You can download it for free from this location:

IP Scanner

• Install the program
• Run the program and it automatically displays all the network ip devices running including the AirSight Camera. The AirSight will be listed as “unidentified hidden device”.
• Copy down the AirSight`s IP address, then open Safari. Type in the IP address and hit Enter.

For iOS, there is a similar app, CamScan, which identifies cameras and lets you open them directly in Safari.
