Online Voice Tracking Activation
Online Activation
Use this method when your camera has internet access throughout the setup process.
Step 1: Open the Updater Page
In a web browser, navigate to your camera's IP address followed by /update:
http://[camera-ip]/update
Example:
http://192.168.15.151/update
Step 2: Activate the Device
- On the updater page, click Activate device (online).
- Sign in with your PTZOptics Community / Visionaries Club credentials.
- Select your distributor from the list.
- Click Activate Device.
After activation, two license status indicators will display:
| Validation Type | Positive Activation | Not Activated |
|---|---|---|
| Online License Status | Valid (camera was registered online) | Invalid (not registered online) |
| Offline License Status | Valid (Camera req file was uploaded) | Invalid (req file not uploaded) |
note
These statuses indicate the method by which your license was validated. If either status (Online or Offline) reads valid, Horizon and Voice Tracking will function properly.
Step 3: Install Voice Tracking
- Click Continue to Updater.
- Click Install Updates.
- Wait 3–5 minutes for the installation to complete. Do not navigate away or power off the camera.
- The camera will reboot automatically when finished.
Do Not Interrupt
Interrupting the installation process can leave the camera in an unrecoverable state. Keep the browser tab open and the camera powered on for the full duration.
Step 4: Access Voice Tracking
After the camera reboots, perform a hard reload to clear cached assets:
- Windows / Linux:
Ctrl + Shift + R - macOS:
Cmd + Shift + R
Then navigate to:
http://[camera-ip]/voice-tracking
Or open the Horizon Web UI at http://[camera-ip]/horizon and click Voice Tracking in the left sidebar.
