Preparation
Search and Set up by IPWizard II
When you installed the camera on a LAN environment, you have two ways to search your cameras ─
IPWizard II or UPnP™ discovery. Here is the way to execute IPWizard II to discover camera‟s IP address and
set up related parameter of the camera.
Search
After launched the IPWizard II, a searching window will pop up. IPWizard II is starting to search Network
Cameras on the LAN. The existed devices will be listed as below.
[Note] The factory default IP address is 192.168.10.30.
8
View
If IPWizard II finds network devices, View button will be available. Please select the device you want to view
and click the View button. Then you could see the video from camera directly. Furthermore you could double
click the left button of mouse to link to the network device by browser.
LAN
In case you want to change the IP related parameters of wired interface, please select the device you want to
configure and click the LAN button. Relative settings will be carried out as below.
9
You could modify the relative settings of the selected device. Click “<<” button will quit the LAN setting
procedure and click “>>” button will move to next page as below.
In case, you do not want to change username and/or password, then just click Submit button to perform your
setting accordingly. Click “<<” button will go back to previous page. If you like to change username and/or
password of the device, just click the check button. Then, the related fields will show up as below.
After keying in new username and password, click Submit button to perform your setting accordingly. Click
“<<” button will go back to previous page.
10
Wireless (For wireless model only)
I In case you want to change the wireless related parameters, please select the device you want to configure
and click the WIRELESS button. The wireless settings will be carried out as above.
Click SSID to select your wireless AP or router and type WEP / WPA key.
Click >> to go next step.
11
Double check the wireless setting and click the submit button.
Click OK to confirm these parameters, then IPWizard II will start to configure this camera with specified
information.
12
Once this step finished, IPWizard II will ask you to unplug the Ethernet cable and press TEST to check the
wireless settings or press Finish to complete the wireless setting procedure.
13
Using UPnP of Windows® XP or Vista
UPnP™ is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking architecture that provides compatibility
among networking equipment, software, and peripherals. This device is an UPnP enabled device. If the
operating system, Windows XP or Vista, of your PC is UPnP enabled, the Network Camera will be very easy to
be found.
Please refer to Appendix J to enable UPnP settings only if your operating system of PC is running Windows
XP.
[Note] Windows 2000 does not support UPnP feature.
To discover your device, go to your Desktop and click My Network Places.
Click the targeted Device. Then Internet Explorer will connect to this Network Camera automatically.
14
Install the Device behind a NAT Router
Once installed, the device is accessible to your LAN. To access the device from the Internet you must
configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to the device. If the device is installed on the
LAN with a router, then it may get a dynamic IP address from the DHCP server. However, if the device wants
to be accessed from the WAN, its IP address needs to be setup as fixed IP, also the port forwarding or Virtual
Server function of router needs to be setup.
If your NAT router supports UPnP feature, just enable the NAT-traversal feature, then it can be very easy to
achieve NAT traversal automatically.
3 steps to install the device with an UPnP router on your network:
(1) Enable UPnP option of your NAT router
(2) Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the Network Camera (default)
(3) Enter Setting/Network/UPnP/External IP Address stream(ext:http://192.168.121.80:32768) on your web
browser
(1) Enable UPnP option of your NAT router
To use UPnP IGD function (NAT traversal), you need to make sure the UPnP function is enabled in your router.
Most new home routers should support this function. Some of routers are default enable and others are not.
Please check user‟s manual of your NAT router for detail.
(2) Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the Network Camera
Refer to Setting Network UPnP page for detail NAT traversal setting. Note that this option is default
enabled.
(3) Typing IP camera IP address on web browser
Refer to Setting/Network/UPnP/External IP Address(ex. :http://192.168.121.80:32768), than enter stream on
your web browser
15
Using Browser to Access the Device for the First Time
1. Start the web browser on the computer and type the IP address of the Network Camera (Default IP
address is 192.168.10.30) you want to monitor.
2. The Login Window of the Camera is prompted:
3. Type in your login name and password under “USERNAME” and “PASSWORD” textbox.
For the first time use (default value), input the
User Name: admin
Password: admin
Click “OK” button to start the main menu.
4. According to your browser‟s security setting, the IE webpage may pop-up the “Security Warning” window.
If so, select “Yes” to install and run the ActiveX control into your PC. Otherwise, the system will load the
ActiveX silently.
5. After the ActiveX control was installed, the first image will be displayed.
16
