Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the DCS-1110 Internet Camera! The DCS-1110 is a versatile and unique solution
for your small office or home. Unlike a PC Camera, the DCS-1110 is a stand-alone system with a built-in CPU and Web
server that transmits high quality video images for monitoring. The DCS-1110 can be accessed remotely, and controlled
from any PC/Notebook over the Intranet or Internet via a web browser. The simple installation procedure and intuitive
web-based interface offer easy integration with your Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network. The DCS-1110 also comes
with remote monitoring capability for a complete and cost-effective solution.

Section 1 - Product Overview
Features
• Simple to Use - The DCS-1110 is a stand-alone system with a built-in CPU, requiring no special hardware
or software such as PC frame grabber cards. The DCS-1110 supports ActiveX mode for Internet Explorer. All
that is required is a computer with Internet Explorer 6.0 or above.
• Supports a Variety of Platforms - Supporting TCP/IP networking, HTTP, and other Internet related protocols.
It can also be integrated easily into other Internet/Intranet applications because of its standards-based
features.
• Remote Snapshot Images and Recording - Using the snapshot and recording features, you can save
snapshots and record video and audio directly from the Web browser to a local hard drive without installing
any software, making it convenient to instantly capture any moment from a remote location.
• Record Directly to a NAS - The DCS-1110 allows you to record directly to a local network area storage
device without the use of a dedicated PC for storing recorded video.
• Low Light Recording - The DCS-1110’s 0.5 lux light sensitivity allows you to capture video in rooms with
minimal lighting, making it ideal for use at night time.
• PoE Support - The DCS-1110 supports traditional wired transmission, making the DCS-1110 easy to
integrate into your existing network environment. The DCS-1110 works with a 10Mbps Ethernet based
network or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet based network. With support for 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE),
the DCS-1110 works with a compatible PoE power injector or PoE switch. This eliminates the need for
mounting the camera near a power supply.
• Web Configuration - Using a standard Web browser, Administrators can configure and manage the Internet
Camera directly from its own Web page via the Intranet or Internet. This means you can access your DCS-1110
at anytime from anywhere in the world!

Section 1 - Product Overview
• Remote Monitioring Utility - The IPView SE application adds enhanced features and functionality for the
Internet Camera and allows administrators to configure and access the Internet Camera from a remote site
via Intranet or Internet. Other features include image monitoring, recording images to a hard drive, viewing up
to 4 cameras on one screen, and taking snapshots.
• Broad Range of Applications - With today’s high-speed Internet services, the Internet Camera can provide the
ideal solution for live video images over the Intranet and Internet for remote monitoring. The Internet Camera
allows remote access from a Web browser for live image viewing and allows the administrator to manage and
control the Internet Camera at anytime, from anywhere in the world. Many applications exist, including industrial
and public monitoring of homes, offices, banks, hospitals, child-care centers, and amusement parks.

Hardware Overview
Connections
Reset Button
Reset will be initiated when the reset button is pressed once and Power LED begins to
flash. Factory Reset will be initiated when the reset button is pressed continuously for
ten seconds. Release the reset button and the Power LED will begin to flash indicating
that the DCS-1110’s settings are reverting back to the factory settings. The IP address
will also return to the default settings with DHCP selected.
Ethernet Cable Connector
The DCS-1110 features an RJ-45 connector for connections to
10Base-T Ethernet cabling or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling.
The port supports 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) and the NWay
protocol, allowing the DCS-1110 to automatically detect or negotiate
the transmission speed of the network. The port also supports MDI/X,
which allows the use of either straight through or cross-over cables.
DC Power Connector
The DC power input connector is labeled
DC 5V with a single jack socket to supply
power to the DCS-1110. The power supply
is optional if PoE is used.

will begin to flash to indicate that the DCS-1110 is
receiving/transceiving from/to the LAN network.
Power LED
The Power LED is positioned on the right side of
the DCS-1110 lens. Steady blue confirms that the

Attach the external power supply to the DC power input connector located on the rear panel of the DCS-1110 and
connect it to your local power supply. Note: Power source is confirmed when the blue LED Power Indicator located to
the right of the lens on the DCS-1110 is illuminated.
Note: The power supply is optional if the
PoE (Power over Ethernet) is used.
Connect the Ethernet Cable
Connect the included Ethernet cable to the network cable connector located on the back panel of the DCS-1110 and
attach it to the network. Network Connectivity is confirmed when the orange LED Indicator on the DCS-1110 located

Section 2 - Installation
Security
To ensure the highest security and prevent unauthorized usage of the DCS-1110, the Administrator has the exclusive
privilege to authorize all users. The DCS-1110 supports multi-level password protection/access that can be restricted
by the Administrator for defined users who have a User Name and User Password.
The Administrator can release a public User Name and Password so that when remote users access the DCS-1110
they will be allowed to view the images transmitted by the DCS-1110.
Note: When the DCS-1110 is used for the first time, it is highly recommended that the Administrator set the Admin
ID and Admin Password to constrain user access to the DCS-1110 since the Default settings for the Admin ID and
Admin Password are both “admin.” Once the ID and Password are defined, only the Administrator has access to the
management of the DCS-1110. This procedure should be done as soon as possible.
