Wireless Installation Considerations

The DCS-2670L connects to your network using a wireless connection from anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. However, the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between your camera and other network devices (such as your Network Camera) - each wall or ceiling can reduce your camera’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters).
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle, it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick. Position your devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may weaken the wireless signal. Try to position your access points, wireless routers, and other networking devices where the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters away from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or other radio frequency sources (such as microwave ovens), your wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use.

Mounting the Camera

To mount your camera on a wall or ceiling, please follow the steps below. It is recommended that you congure the camera before mounting.
Step 1:
Place the baseplate where you want to position the camera and use a pencil to mark the holes. You can use the large holes for a removable installation, or the small holes for a xed one. Make sure the lock arrow on the plate is pointing down.
Step 2:
Depending on the material of the wall or ceiling, use proper tools to drill holes 25 mm deep with a 6 mm drill bit where you marked. If the wall is made out of concrete, drill the holes rst, then insert the plastic anchors to support the screws.
Step 3:
Place the baseplate over the holes that are in the wall. Make sure to align the baseplate holes with the holes in the wall. Use the supplied screws to attach the baseplate to the surface of the wall.

Frame size determines the total capture resolution the camera will use when viewing and recording video. Higher resolutions provide better video quality, but will require more bandwidth.
A higher frame rate provides smoother motion for videos, and requires more bandwidth. Lower frame rates will result in stuttering motion, and require less bandwidth. Please note that if 1920 x 1080 is selected as your frame size, your maximum frame rate will be 30 frames per second.
This limits the maximum frame rate, which can be combined with the Fixed quality option to optimize the bandwidth utilization and video quality. If xed bandwidth utilization is desired regardless of the video quality, choose Constant bit rate and select the desired bandwidth.

53D-Link DCS-2670L User Manual
Section 4: Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

1. What can I do if I forget the password for my camera’s web conguration interface?
If you forget your password, you will need to perform a factory reset of your camera. This process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults. It is therefore recommended that you make a record of the password for future reference.
To reset your camera, please use an unfolded paperclip to press and hold the RESET button for at least 10 seconds while your camera is plugged in.
2. Why don’t the LEDs light up?
The power supply might be faulty. Conrm that you are using the provided DC 5 V power supply for this network camera. Verify that the power supply is correctly connected. If the camera is functioning normally, the LEDs may have been disabled. See Admin on page 48 for information about how to enable the LEDs.
3. Why is the camera’s network connection unreliable?
There might be a problem with the network cable. To conrm that the cables are working, PING the address of a known device on the network. If the cabling is OK and your network is reachable, you should receive a reply similar to the following (…bytes = 32 time = 2 ms).
Another possible problem may be that the network device such as a hub or switch utilized by the Network Camera is not functioning properly. Please conrm the power for the devices are well connected and functioning properly.
If you are using a wireless connection to connect the camera, be aware of the range limitations of the wireless N standard. Most wireless N devices have a maximum indoor range of around 70 metres (230 feet). Also be aware that obstacles such as walls, oors, doors and other solid objects can have an adverse eect on signal range.
4. Why does a series of broad vertical white lines appear through out the image?
It could be that the image sensor has become overloaded when it has been exposed to bright light such as direct exposure to sunlight or halogen lights. Reposition the camera into a more shaded area immediately, as prolonged exposure to bright lights will damage the sensor.
54D-Link DCS-2670L User Manual
Section 4: Troubleshooting
5. The camera is producing noisy images. How can I solve the problem?
The video images might be noisy if the camera is used in a very low light environment. Try switching to night mode if you are consistently monitoring a low light area.
6. The images are poor quality, how can I improve the image quality?
You may also need to check your image settings to make sure the brightness, contrast, and other settings are set properly. For more, refer to Image Setup on page 31.
7. Why are no images available through the Web browser?
ActiveX might be disabled. If you are viewing the images from Internet Explorer make sure ActiveX has been enabled in the Internet Options menu. You may also need to change the security settings on your browser to allow the ActiveX plug-in to be installed. Also, check that you have the latest version of Java installed. Java can be downloaded from http://www.java.com
If you are using Internet Explorer with a version number 6 or lower, then you will need to upgrade your Web browser software in order to view the streaming video transmitted by the Network Camera.
