unauthorized parties. The default setting for this
option is Disable.
• WEP Key Format: To enable WEP Encryption, you
should decide the encryption format first by selecting the ASCII or HEX option, and then input the WEP key (in the following Key 1~4 box).
ASCII input format:
ASCII format causes each character you type to be interpreted as an eight-bit value. All unaccented upper- and lower-case Western European characters that can be input through your keyboard's typing zone are valid. To setup a 64­bit WEP key, input 5 ASCII characters. For example, ‘12345’. To setup an 128-bit WEP key, input 13 ASCII characters. For example, ‘1234567890123’. These character counts result in bit counts of 40 and 104 respectively; the camera will automatically pad your input to a bit count of 64 or 128.
HEX input format:
Hex format causes each pair of characters you type to be interpreted as an eight-bit value in hexadecimal (base 16) notation. Only the digits 0 through 9 and the letters A through F (in upper or lower case) are valid. To setup a 64-bit WEP key, input 10 HEX format. For example, ‘3132333435’, which is the same with ASCII input ‘12345’. To setup an 128-bit WEP key, input 26 HEX format. For example, ‘31323334353637383930313233’, which is the same with ASCII input ‘1234567890123’. These character counts result in bit counts of 40 and 104, respectively; the IPCam SECURE300W will automatically pad your input to a bit count of 64 or 128.
• Encrypt Data Transmissions Using: Use this pull-down
menu to decide to use Key 1, 2, 3 or 4 for encryption).
• WPA-PSK: This item is used to secure your wireless
network in pre-shared key mode (8-63 ASCII or 64

HEX characters). If you enable this function, each user must enter a pass phrase to access the network.
- Advanced Setting: In this field, you can setup more
advanced configuration.
• Beacon Interval: This option defines time interval
between two images sent.
• Preamble: A preamble is a signal used in wireless
environment to synchronize the transmitting timing including Synchronization and Start frame delimiter. Please NOTE that if you want to change the Preamble type into Long or Short, please check the setting of access point.

Dynamic Address (DHCP) – If your network uses the DHCP server, select this option. According to this setting, the camera will be assigned an IP address from the DHCP server automatically. Every time when the camera starts up, please make sure that the DHCP server is set to assign a static IP address to your camera. PPPoE – If your application requires a direct connection from an ADSL modem through the camera’s RJ-45 LAN port, click this option and enter the User ID and Password into the respective boxes. (You should have an ISP PPPoE account.) The camera will get an IP address from the ISP as starting up.
• DNS IP Address: DNS (Domain Name System) server
is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Enter at least one DNS IP Address in this field.
• Dynamic DNS:
Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Service) is a method of keeping a domain name linked to a changing (dynamic) IP address. With most Cable and DSL connections, you are assigned a dynamic IP address and that address is used only for the duration of that specific connection. With the IPCam SECURE300W, you can set up your DDNS service and the IPCam SECURE300W will automatically update your DDNS server every time it receives a different IP address. Depending on the service, this update may take a few hours. If you are using a DDNS connection, click the Enable button and enter in your User Name, Password, and Domain Name. Second HTTP Port: The default port for communication is via port 80, and you can change it according to your
Page 42
KYE Systems Corp. 41
network configuration. Select Enable from the option and enter the desired port number in the following box.
By default, port 80 (Web server port) is open. If these ports are available for use, you DO NOT have to open a second port and can proceed to the next section. If port 80 is not available (for example, if you are already using port 80 to run a Web server or your ISP blocks access on port 80*) you MUST open a second port and designate a new Web server port (800, 801, 802,…etc)
Please note that some ISPs block traffic on commonly used ports like port 80 to disallow consumers from putting a server on their network. Be sure to check with your ISP so that you can open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the Web server port the camera uses from 80 to something else, like 800. If you are behind a residential gateway, you will need to open a corresponding port on your gateway as well. Not all gateways are the same, please refer to your gateway’s user’s manual for specific instructions on how to forward ports.
• UPnP:
The built-in UPnP support allows computers
running Windows® XP/Me to recognize the IPCam SECURE300W and automatically add it to your network. The IPCam SECURE300W can be instantly accessed and viewed from “My Network Places” as a device on the network. You can configure the IPCam SECURE300W directly. Check the Enable option to enable the function of your camera.

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 the IPCam SECURE300W over the network.
Follow the step-by-step procedure below to utilize the PING command. However, you must disconnect the IPCam SECURE300W from the network first.
Page 83
IPCam SECURE300W User’s Manual
KYE Systems Corp. 82
Start a DOS window. Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the IPCam SECURE300W.
The succeeding replies as illustrated below will provide useful explanation to the cause of the problem with the IPCam SECURE300W IP address.
Trouble Shooting
Q: I cannot access the IPCam SECURE300W from a web browser. A1: The possible cause might be the IP Address for the IPCam
SECURE300W is already being used by another device. To correct the possible problem, you need to first disconnect the IPCam SECURE300W from the network. Then run the PING utility (follow the instructions in the section of “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 the section of “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 IPCam SECURE300W 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 “Specify an IP address”.
Page 84
KYE Systems Corp. 83
If the IPCam SECURE300W 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 IPCam SECURE300W corresponds to the first 3 sections of the workstation. Therefore the IP address of the IPCam SECURE300W 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 IPCam SECURE300W 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 IPCam SECURE300W and verify that the power supply is well connected.
Q: Why does the Link 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 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).
A2: The network device utilized by the IPCam SECURE300W is not functioning properly such as hubs or switches. Confirm the power for the devices are well connected and functioning.
A3: The wireless connection might be at fault. In ad-hoc mode make sure the IPCam SECURE300W wireless channel and SSID is set to
Page 85
IPCam SECURE300W User’s Manual
KYE Systems Corp. 84
match the PC/Notebook wireless channel and SSID for direct communication.
Under infrastructure mode make sure the SSID on the PC/Notebook and the IPCam SECURE300W must match with the access point’s SSID.
Q: Why does the IPCam SECURE300W 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 IPCam SECURE300W into a more shaded area immediately as this will damage the CMOS sensor.
Q: There is bad focus on the IPCam SECURE300W, what should be done? A1: The focus might not be correctly adjusted for the line of sight. You need to adjust the IPCam SECURE300W focus manually as described in Adjust Internet Camera Focus.
Page 86
KYE Systems Corp. 85
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 IPCam SECURE300W
is used is a very low light environment. To solve this issue you need more lighting.
A2: There might be wireless transmission interference. Make sure there are no other wireless devices on the network that will affect the wireless transmission.
Q: There is poor image quality, how can I improve the image? A1: A probable cause might be the incorrect 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.
NOTE: Applying only 16 or 256 colors on your computer will produce dithering artifacts in the image.
A2: The configuration on the IPCam SECURE300W 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
Page 87
IPCam SECURE300W User’s Manual
Internet Options menu. Alternatively, you can use the Java Applet for viewing the required images.

Glossary of Terms
NUMBERS
10BASE-T
10BASE-T is Ethernet over UTP Category III,IV, or V unshielded twisted-pair media.
100BASE-TX
The two-pair twisted-media implementation of 100BASE­T is called 100BASE-TX.
802.11g
An IEEE standard for wireless local area networks. It offers transmissions speeds at up to 54 Mbps in the 2.4­GHz band.
A
Access point
It is the hardware interface between a wireless LAN and a wired LAN. The access point attaches to the wired LAN through an Ethernet connection.
Applet
Applets are small Java programs that can be embedded in an HTML page. The rule at the moment is that an applet can only make an Internet connection to the computer from that the applet was sent.
ASCII
American Standard Code For Information Interchange, it is the standard method for encoding characters as 8-
b
it sequences of binary numbers, allowing a maximum of 256 characters.
ARP
Address Resolution Protocol. ARP is a protocol that resides at the TCP/IP Internet layer that delivers data on

the same network by translating an IP address to a physical address.
AVI
Audio Video Interleave, it is a Windows platform audio and video file type, a common format for small movies and videos.
B
BOOTP
Bootstrap Protocol is an Internet protocol that can automatically configure a network device in a diskless workstation to give its own IP address.
C
Communication
Communication has four components: sender, receiver, message, and medium. In networks, devices and application tasks and processes communicate messages to each other over media. They represent the sender and receivers. The data they send is the message. The cabling or transmission method they use is the medium.
Connection
In networking, two devices establish a connection to communicate with each other.
D
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol was developed by Microsoft for assigning
dynamic IP addresses to devices

on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. This simplifies the task for network administrators because the software keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage the task. This means a new computer can be added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address. DHCP allows the specification for the service provided by a router, gateway, or other network device that automatically assigns an IP address to any device that requests one
DNS
Domain Name System is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Since domain names are alphabetic, they're easier to remember. The Internet however, is really based on IP addresses every time you use a domain name the DNS will translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.network_camera.com might translate to
192.167.222.8.
E
Enterprise network
An enterprise network consists of collections of networks connected to each other over a geographically dispersed area. The enterprise network serves the needs of a widely distributed company and operates the company’s mission­critical applications.
Ethernet
The most popular LAN communication technology. There are a variety of types of Ethernet, including 10 Mbps

(traditional Ethernet), 100 Mbps (Fast Ethernet), and 1,000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet). Most Ethernet networks use Category 5 cabling to carry information, in the form of electrical signals, between devices. Ethernet is an implementation of CSMA/CD that operates in a bus or star topology.
F
Fast Ethernet
Fast Ethernet, also called 100BASE-T, operates at 10 or 100Mbps per second over UTP, STP, or fiber-optic media.
Firewall
Firewall is considered the first line of defense in protecting private information. For better security, data can be encrypted. A system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network
. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially Intranets all messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the firewall, which examines each message and blocks those that do not meet the specified security criteria.
G
Gateway
A gateway links computers that use different data formats together.
Group
Groups consist of several user machines that have similar characteristics such as being in the same department.

HEX
Short for hexadecimal refers to the base-16 number system, which consists of 16 unique symbols: the numbers 0 to 9 and the letters A to F. For example, the decimal number 15 is represented as F in the hexadecimal numbering system. The hexadecimal system is useful because it can represent every byte (8 bits) as two consecutive hexadecimal digits. It is easier for humans to read hexadecimal numbers than binary numbers.
I
IEEE
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers.
Intranet
This is a private network, inside an organization or company, that uses the same software you will find on the public Internet. The only difference is that an Intranet is used for internal usage only.
Internet
The Internet is a globally linked system of computers that are logically connected based on the Internet Protocol (IP). The Internet provides different ways to access private and public information worldwide.
Internet address
To participate in Internet communications and on Internet Protocol-based networks, a node must have an Internet address that identifies it to the other nodes. All Internet addresses are IP addresses
IP
Internet Protocol is the standard that describes the layout of the basic unit of information on the Internet (the packet) and also details the numerical addressing format used to
