Authentication
To access the camera’s live view, open a web browser and enter the IP address of the camera.
A dialog window will pop requesting a username and password. As stated on the previous page,
for the default username and password for the Administrator are assigned as “admin/admin”.
For accounts other than the administrator’s account, the user can choose to remember the
password for future convenience. It is not recommended to check this box when viewing the
camera feed from a public computer.
NOTE – If an error occurred or the plug-in fails to install, it is because the version of the Electronic
Signature is newly released and the VeriSign has not been submitted to Microsoft Windows update
for validation. Therefore, plug-in will not have its root certicate. If IE discovers that there is no root
certicate after the user’s PC connects to the camera, it will automatically redirect to VeriSign Web
site to download and install the latest root certicate to make the installation successfully. If the
user’s computer is able to connect to camera but unable to access the internet, then the installation
will fail because the computer will not be able to download the latest root certicate. This problem
can be resolved if computer can be connect to the internet and the camera at the same time and will
not recur when Windows update patches become available.
Installing the Plug-In
For the initial access to the camera in Windows, the web browser may prompt the administrator
for permission to install a new plug-in for on Internet Explorer. Permission request depends on
the Internet security settings of the user’s PC or notebook. If the highest security level is set, the
computer may prohibit any installation and execution attempt. This plug-in has been registered for
certicate and is used to display the video in the browser. Click on install to proceed. If the web
browser does not allow the administrator to continue the installation, check the Internet security
option and lower the security levels or contact the networking supervisor or IT for help.
