V Web-Based Management Interface

When you are using the same local network as your camera, you can use the
web-based management interface to view or configure the camera.

You can access the web-based management interface with a web browser on
a smartphone or computer. For smartphone users, the appearance of the
interface will vary slightly to what is displayed here, though the menu
functions described from V-1 Basic onwards are essentially the same.

1. Enter the network camera’s IP address into the URL bar of a web

browser. The camera’s IP address can be found by opening EdiView

Finder, as displayed below:

Internet Explorer is recommended.

2. You may be prompted to allow a Java add-on to run. Please click the

message where it says “click here” and then click “Run Add-on”.

If any other security warnings/prompts appear, please select “Run”
or “Allow” or similar, depending on your browser.

Mac users need to configure these settings manually since EdiView Finder on

Mac will not set up your camera’s wireless connection. A quick guide to set up
your network camera’s wireless connection using a smartphone or a

computer is included below.

Mac users setting their network camera’s wireless connection for

the first time please ensure your network camera is connected to
your router/access point/switch via Ethernet cable.

You can also use the “wireless” page for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS): to
either activate push-button WPS (the same effect as physically pushing the
hardware WPS button built into the camera), or PIN code WPS (using a PIN
code for verification between the two wireless devices for additional security.)

defined as an “event” and the camera will record for a specified length of time.

You can set the camera to send this recording as a notification via email or
FTP, and/or to local storage such as a NAS or MicroSD card inside the camera.

You can also set the camera to send a push notification for each event to a
smartphone with EdiLife installed. You can view a 10 second recording of the

event, which is automatically stored in the network camera’s memory, from
the app’s “Events” menu.

Recordings stored automatically in the network camera are limited
to 10 seconds and only a limited quantity can be stored. These
recordings are separate from any recordings saved to local storage
or sent via email/FTP, and will be overwritten as new recordings are
created.

Detection

network camera.

Interval Time
To Detect

After motion is detected, the network camera will not detect
motion again for this length of time. For example, using an

“Interval Time To Detect” of 20 seconds means that after

motion is detected, the camera will not detect any further
motion for 20 seconds. Then after 20 seconds, the camera will
detect motion again.

Upload Event
File to FTP

A video recording of a detected event can be sent to a

designated FTP server. Select “Enable” or “Disable” for this

function. When enabled, you need to configure the FTP server
information on the “FTP” page of the “Events  Notification”

sensitivity level if you receive unnecessary event notifications.

V-3-1-2 Detection Region

When using the network camera’s motion detection function, you can specify
the area in the video where the network camera should be sensitive to
motion. Motion outside of the detection region will be ignored by the

Night Mode. A higher value will trigger the alarm for large
objects in the video; a lower value will trigger the alarm for
smaller objects.

Save

Save your settings.

1 Day mode and night mode have separate Sensitivity and Threshold

settings.

2 All 3 regions use the same Sensitivity and Threshold settings.
3 If Auto Switch of Night Vision is enabled, the light sensor will determine

whether to switch to Day mode or IR-based Night Mode.

4 If Night vision’s Auto Switch is disabled, the sensitive and threshold will

follow Day mode’s setting.
