DDNS Registration

If you have DYNAMIC IP service from your Internet Service Provider (ISP), you will not be able to tell the current IP address of the IP camera. To solve this problem, you may register to our DDNS service.

Check if you are using dynamic addressing for the camera. If so, register your IP Video Server on our DDNS website before you configure, setup, or install the IP Camera.

Even though your IP is not dynamic, you can register your camera to the DDNS server. This allows you to remember a simple URL address instead of complicated series of numbers like http://201.23.4.76:8078.

For more details, contact our Support Center.

To register IP camera to DDNS, the camera’s ‘Serial No.’ is required. The ‘Serial No.’ can be found in section 6 ‘Setup - DDNS’ menu.

To use a public DDNS such as ‘dyndns’ or ‘no-ip’, refer to the detail information on how to use the service. (Visit the web site : http://www.dyndns.com or http://www.no-ip.com for more information).

If prompted for ID and Password, use ‘admin’ for both entries.

Please configure the IP camera at the installation site. Determine your network scenario in order to configure the IP camera with the proper TCP/IP settings. This tutorial will guide you through the process. Before configuring the IP camera, determine what settings need to be applied. Record those settings to be used to configure your IP camera for reference.

When configuring your IP camera, treat the IP camera as any other PC on your network. You will assign it several addresses and other TCP/IP properties to match your current network.

This step-by-step tutorial will teach what IP addresses and network configurations should be assigned based on the network scenario.

The default web port is 80. If port 80 is blocked by the ISP, a value between 1025 ~ 60000 should be used. If TCP port 80 is blocked, consult the ISP.

The following descriptions are several basic network scenarios. Determine which scenario describes your network. If your network does not match one of the scenarios below and you are unsure how to setup your IP camera, contact your network administrator and then call our Support Center.

Before you begin, locate any information and settings received from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). You may need to refer to these IP addresses at a later time during the configuration.

FAQ

My POWER light is not on?

Power is not being supplied to the unit. Please use a proper power supply and verify that a power source is active from the attached power outlet used to connect the adapter. You can test this by plugging in any other electrical device and verify its operation. After making sure the power cable and power supply are working properly, reinsert the power connector into the IP camera. If using a PoE switch, make sure the switch provides the correct amount of power necessary to power the IP camera and that the port is working.

My ACTIVE light is not flashing?

Verify the power supply to the unit. Power off the unit and back on again, wait 1 minute, if the ACTIVE light still does not begin to flash, you will have to set the unit to its factory default (THIS WILL DELETE ANY CONFIGURATION SET MANUALLY). Power on the unit and press the reset button for five (5) seconds.

My LINK light is not flashing or solid?

Verify the cable connection. Try using a different network cable or crossover cable (for PC connection only).

I can access the video server on my LAN, but not from the Internet.

Verify that your router (if applicable) has port forwarding properly configured. If accessing from our DDNS service, verify correct serial number. Check that your Firewall settings are not blocking access to the camera.

I’m accessing my video server remotely over the Internet and the video stream is choppy, is this normal?

Yes. The frames per second received remotely are determined by your bandwidth capabilities both at your site where the IP Camera is installed and your remote location. The lower of the two sites will determine how fast your video stream is received. It is recommended to have at least a 256Kb/sec upstream connection from the site where the IP Camera is installed. Lower speeds will operate properly, but provide poor remote performance. The Faster the Internet connection at both ends, the faster the video stream.
