Wanting a step by step guide on how to enable Internet Explorer mode on Edge for Dahua devices web portal? Have a look at this blog post, which shows exactly how enable Edge for configuration using the Dahua Config Tool.

This will show you how to enable Internet Explorer mode on Microsoft Edge for configuring Dahua Devices when using the Dahua Config Tool. You can still use browsers such as Firefox or Google Chrome, but you may find they have limited functionality such as some menus don’t display correctly or there is no live video feed of a camera. This is because of a plugin that is unavailable to these browsers. This could change in the future, but for now if you are going to HTTP into a device we recommend using Internet Explorer or Edge in IE Mode!

To Enable Internet Explorer Mode on Edge, please follow these steps:

  1. Open Microsoft Edge
  2. Click the three dots in the top right hand corner of the browser
  3. Navigate to “Settings”, then left click to open
  4. Find the “Default Browser” tab and click to open the options
  5. The drop down menu will likely be set to “Default” or “Don’t Allow”. Change this to “Allow”
  6. Close Edge to apply these settings

Now whenever you are logging into a device via the Config Tool, the web portal will open in Internet Explorer Mode, allowing full functionality.

  2. For this demonstration we will set up a Tripwire Intrusion rule, which is a simple line that when crossed will notify the end user via the DMSS App
  3. You can set parameters for the rule such as it’s detection area from one direction, the opposite direction, or set it to detect movement from both sides
  4. Click “More” for additional options, such as allowing the Recorder to sound it’s Buzzer or send an Email when thresehold is crossed

  3. You can again set the detection rules, post record time, schedule, etc

Once the Recorder reboots it’s always best practice to always test the rules to make sure the detection thresholds are detecting the movement.
