only if you are connecting the IP camera directly to your cable/DSL/Broadband modem and your Internet Service Provider is supplying a dynamic address.

10.

Configure the IP camera’s TCP/IP settings as you normally do any other PCs on your network by providing a proper IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server.

11.

The IP Camera utilizes five TCP ports - Web Port, Video Port, Control Server Port, and Audio ports. A Web Port utilizes Internet Explorer, a Video Server port supports the streaming video, a Control Server Port transmits control commands to the camera and Audio Ports transmit and receive Audio data. If the IP camera is directly attached to a cable/DSL/Broadband modem or it has been assigned a static IP from your ISP, do not change the default port settings. If you are installing the IP camera on a network, you must define a Web Port other than 80 as some ISP block port 80. The other ports can remain unchanged.

12.

If the IP camera is connected to a network utilizing a router, you must have Port Forwarding configured on your personal router to forward all ports to the IP address you have assigned the IP Camera. (See your Network Administrator for more information).

13.

After configuring Port Forwarding on your router (if necessary), you may access your IP camera on your local network by opening Internet Explorer and typing the camera’s IP address and Web Port.

14.

Access your IP Camera via the Internet :

If you use a static IP address assigned by your ISP

1) Open Internet Explorer.

2) Type the IP of the IP camera.

3) If you use a router, type the routers’ static IP and the web port number of the IP Camera.

If you have a dynamic address provided by your ISP

1) Open Internet Explorer and visit the DDNS website.

2) Register the IP camera.

3) Reboot the IP camera.

4) Give the DDNS server up to 10 minutes to locate your IP camera’s IP information.

5) Click the refresh button in Internet Explore.

DDNS R

istration

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).

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.

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

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.

5. 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.

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.

1. 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.

•

Control Port

•

VideoPort

•

Audio Transmit Port

•

Audio Receive Port

All the ports will be forwarded to the IP address you assigned to the IP Camera.

In the example above, you would forward:

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.

How do I open an MS-DOS or Command Prompt?

•

Windows 98 / ME Users :

Start > Programs > Accessories > MS-DOS prompt

•

Windows 2000 / XP Users :

How do I find out my IP address information if my settings were automatically detected?

Windows 98 / ME Users

1) Open an MS-DOS Prompt

2) At the prompt type: “winipcfg” (without the quotation marks)

3) Use the drop down list to select your 10/100 Ethernet Adapter (not a PPP adapter)

4) Now you will see your IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway information

5) For DNS information contact your Internet Service Provider

7. I can’t connect!!

In case of a connection failure. Modem Reboot > Modem Reboot Finished > Router Reboot > Router Reboot Finished > IP Camera Reboot > IP Camera Reboot Finish > Verify DDNS and IP Camera connection, if applicable.

8. How do I “PING” an IP address?

1) Open an MS-DOS (or Command) prompt

2) At the prompt type - “ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” (without the quotes and replace the “x”s with an IP address)

3) Press Enter

9. 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.

How do I enable or check ActiveX on my browser

10.

Open Internet Explorer > Tools on the menu bar > Internet Options > Security Tab > Custom Level > Scroll down and verify that you are prompted or have enabled ActiveX controls and plug-ins to be downloaded and executed. > click OK > restart browser.

How do I reset the unit to factory defaults?

11.

On the underside of the unit you will find a recessed opening located near the top-left side of the label. Power on the unit and use a paper clip to push the reset button in. The ACTIVE light in the camera module will turn off and after a few seconds the ACTIVE light will begin to flash, signifying a successful reboot. If the ACTIVE light does not turn off after pressing the reset button, please try holding the button in for a few seconds and releasing. Please note: YOU WILL LOSE ALL DATA THAT HAS BEEN ENTERED PREVIOUSLY AND THE IP CAMERA WILL BE SET TO ITS FACTORY SETTINGS.

Windows 2000 / XP Users

1) Open a Command Prompt

2) At the prompt type - “ipconfig /all” (without the quotes)

3) Near the end of the information supplied, should be your current IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS servers
