1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Welcome
This manual explains how to interface with the H.264 codec supporting IP camera series using the Microsoft® Internet Explorer web browser. The Web Page of the product has been implemented with the protocols below:
HTTP API – Parameter configuration commands RTP/RTSP – Video, Audio, and Metadata Streaming Active X program – Image display on client PC
1.2. Getting Started
Before utilizing the web interface, install and connect the camera and other physical devices. Refer to the hardware manual supplied with your SDK for the product installation steps. The installation manual provides detailed information for installation and configuration of the device.
1.3. IP Address Setting
How to find the IP Address of your device:
The product has its unique IP address, and users can identify the address by converting the MAC address’ last two sets of hexadecimal numbers described on the sticker that is attached to the device. Refer to the following figure and check how to convert a MAC address to an IP address. Type the identified IP address in the address bar of the Internet Explorer to access the web page of the product.
MAC address = 00-13-23-01-23-45 → IP address = 192.168.35.69
Convert the last two sets of hexadecimal numbers to decimal numbers.

How to change the default IP address:
IPAdminTool software allows users to search and change the IP address of connected devices. The figure below shows a main UI of the IPAdminTool. The IPAdminTool helps to search multiple devices. Please refer to the ‘IPAdminTool User’s Mangual.pdf’ for the detailed information and its usage.
What is IPAdminTool?
IPAdminTool automatically scans all of the products including encoders and cameras on the network and displays product’s information, including product name, IP address, MAC address, firmware information, and devices’ uptime. The tool also allows user to change the IP address or update the firmware. ‘IPAdminTool User’s Manual.pdf ’is available in the SDK (\DOC) folder, and it is highly recommended for user to review before using this tool for better understanding of the software functions and administration controls.

Limitation of the concurrent clients
Depends on streaming configurations and settings, simultaneous connection might reach the limitation due to system maxed-out capability.
RTSP Streaming, Unicast: Heavily depends on the maximum throughput in a given time.
