Appendix Frequently Asked Questions
Internet Camera Features
Q: What is a Internet Camera? A: DCS-1000 is a standalone system connecting directly to an Ethernet or
Fast Ethernet network. It is dif ferent from the conventional PC Camera, the DCS-1000 is an all-in-one system with built -in CPU and web-based solutions providing a low cost solution that can transmit high quality video images for monitoring. The DCS-1000 can be managed remotely, accessed and controlled from any PC/Notebook over the Intranet or Internet via a web browser.
Q: What is the maximum number of users that can be allowed to access DCS­1000 simultaneously? A: Maximum number of users that can log onto DCS-1000 at the same time is
64. Please keep in mind the overall performance of the transmission speed will slow down when many users are logged on.
Q: What algorithm is used to compress the digital image? A: DCS-1000 utilizes the JPEG image compression technology providing
high quality images for users. JPEG is adopted since it is a standard for image compression and can be applied to various web browser and application software without the need to install extra software.
Q: Can I capture and record images from DCS-1000? A: Yes you are able to capture images both snapshot of a single image or
video image from the IPView application supplied with DCS-1000 CD-ROM. Please refer to the User’s Guide for detailed information.
Internet Camera Installation
Q: Can the Internet Camera be used out-doors? A: DCS-1000 is not weatherproof. It needs to be equipped with a
weatherproof case to be used outdoors and it is not recommended.
63
Q: What network cabling is required for DCS-1000? A: DCS-1000 uses Category 5 UTP cable allowing 10 Base -T and 100 Base-
T networking.
Q: Can DCS-1000 be setup as a PC-cam on the computer? A: No, DCS-1000 is an Internet Camera used only on Ethernet and Fast
Ethernet network. Q: Can DCS-1000 be connected on the network if it consists of only private
IP addresses?
A: DCS-1000 can be connected to LAN with private IP addresses. Q: Can DCS-1000 be installed and work if a firewall exists on the network?
A: If a firewall exists on the network, port 80 is open for ordinary data
communication. However, since DCS-1000 transmits image data, the default port 8481 is also required. Therefore, it is necessary to open port 8481 of the network for remote users to access DCS-1000.
64
PING Your IP Address
The PING (Packet Internet Groper) command can determine whether a specific IP address is accessible by sending a packet to the specific address and waiting for a reply. It can also provide a very useful tool to confirm if the IP address conflicts with DCS-1000 over the network.
Follow the step-by-step procedure below to utilize the PING command but first you must disconnect DCS-1000 from the network.
Start a DOS window. Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the DCS-1000.
The succeeding replies as illustrated below will provide useful explanation to the cause of the problem with DCS-1000 IP address.
65
Trouble Shooting
Q: I cannot access DCS-1000 from a web browser? A1: The possible cause might be the IP Address for the DCS-1000 is already
being used by another device. To correct the possible problem, you need to first disconnect DCS-1000 from the network. Then run the PING utility (follow the instructions in Appendix B - PING Your IP Address).
A2: Another possible reason is the IP Address is located on a different subnet. To fix the problem, run the PING utility (follow the instructions in Appendix B - PING Your IP Address). If the utility returns “no response” or similar, the finding is probably correct, then you should proceed as follows:-
In Windows 95/98/2000 and Windows NT, double check the IP Address of the DCS-1000 is within the same subnet as your workstation.
Click “Start”, “Setting”, “Control Panel”, and the “Network” icon. Select TCP/IP from the “Network” dialog box and from the “TCP/IP Properties” dialog box click on “Specify an IP address”. If the DCS-1000 is situated on a different subnet than your workstation, you will not be able to set the IP address from this workstation. To verify make sure the first 3 sections of the IP address of the DCS-1000 corresponds to the first 3 sections of the workstation. Therefore the IP address of the DCS-1000 must be set from a workstation on the same subnet.
A3: Other possible problems might be due to the network cable. Try replacing your network cable. Test the network interface of the product by connecting a local computer to the unit, utilizing a standard Crossover (hub to hub) Cable. If the problem is not solved the DCS-1000 might be faulty.
Q: Why does the Power LED not light up constantly? A: The power supply used might be at fault. Confirm that you are using the
provided power supply DC 5V for the DCS-1000 and verify that the power supply is well connected.
Q: Why does the LAN LED not light up properly? A1: There might be a problem with the network cable. To confirm that the
cables are working, PING the address of a know device on the network. If the
66
cabling is OK and your network is reachable, you should receive a reply similar to the following (…bytes = 32 time = 2 ms).
A2: The network device utilized by the DCS-1000 is not functioning properly such as hubs or switches. Confirm the power for the devices are well connected and functioning.
Q: Why does the DCS-1000 work locally but not externally? A1: Might be caused from the firewall protection. Need to check the Internet
firewall with your system administrator. A2: The default router setting might be a possible reason. Need to double
check if the configuration of the default router settings is required. Q: Why does a series of broad vertical white line appears through out the
image? A: A likely issue is that the CMOS sensor becomes overloaded when the light source is too bright such as direct exposure to sunlight or halogen light. You need to reposition the DCS-1000 into a more shaded area immedia tely as this will damage the CMOS sensor.
Q: There is bad focus on the DCS-1000, what should be done? A1: The focus might not be correctly adjusted for the line of sight. You need
to adjust the DCS-1000 focus manually as described in Adjust Internet Camera Focus.
A2: There is no adaptor fitted with your C-type lens. If you have previously changed the supplied CS-type lens, you may have unintentionally installed a C-type lens without fitting the adaptor first.
Q: Noisy images occur how can I solve the problem? A1: The video images might be noisy if the DCS-1000 is used is a very low
light environment. To solve this issue you need more lighting.
Q: There is poor image quality, how can I improve the image? A1: A probable cause might be the incor rect display properties configuration
for your desktop. You need to open the Display Properties on your desktop and configure your display to show at least 65’000 colors for example at least 16-bit.
67
Note:
Applying only 16 or 256 colors on your computer will produce dithering artifacts in the image.
A2: The configuration on the DCS-1000 image display is incorrect. Through the Web Configuration Image section you need to adjust the image related parameter for improve images such as brightness, contrast, hue and light frequency. Please refer to the Web Configuration section for detail information.
Q: There are no images available through the web browser? A: The ActiveX might be disabled. If you are viewing the images from
Internet Explorer make sure ActiveX has been enabled in the Internet Options menu. Alternatively, you can use the Java Applet for viewing the required images.
