IP-CAM can be connected through LAN or WAN. Here only take IE browser (6.0) for
example. The details are as follows:
2.1 LAN
In LAN, there are two ways to access IP-CAM: 1. Access through IP-Tool; 2. Directly access
through IE browser.
2.1.1 Access through IP-Tool
① Make sure the PC and IP-CAM are connected to the LAN and the IP-Tool is installed in
the PC from the CD.
② Double click the IP-Tool icon on the desktop to run this software as shown below:
③ Modify the IP address. The default IP address of this camera is 192.168.226.201. Click the
information of the camera listed in the above table to show the network information on the
right hand. Modify the IP address and gateway of the camera and make sure its network
address is in the same local area network segment as the computer’s. Please modify the IP
address of your device according to the practical situation.
For example, the IP address of your computer is 192.168.13.4. So the IP address of the camera

storage room will be taken up.
Bitrate type: Including CBR and VBR. CBR means that no matter how changeable the video
resources are, the compression bitrate keeps constant. This will not only facilitate the image
quality better in a constant bitrate but also help to calculate the capacity of the recording.
VBR means that the compression bitrate can be adjustable according to the change of the
video resources. This will help to optimize the network bandwidth.
Video Quality: When VBR is selected, you need to choose image quality. The higher the
image quality you choose, the more bitrate will be required.
Bitrate: Please choose it according to the actual network situation.
I Frame interval: It is recommended to use the default value. If the value is over high, the
read speed of the group of pictures will be slow resulting in the quality loss of the video.
