Accessing the PTZ / PT Camera

System Requirement

To access GV-PTZ010D / GV-PT110D camera through the Web browser,
ensure your PC connects to the network properly and meets the system
requirement below:

• Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x or later

Note: For the users of Internet Explorer 8, additional settings are
required. For details, see Appendix B in GV-IPCam H.264 User’s
Manual on the software CD.

Connecting the Cables

Connect GV-PTZ010D / GV-PT110D camera with a standard network cable
and the supplied power adaptor. Alternatively, you can connect a Power
over Ethernet (PoE) adaptor and the power will be supplied over the
network cable.

Assigning an IP Address

Designed for use on the network, assign an IP address to make the
GV-PTZ010D / GV-PT110D camera accessible:

1. Open your web browser, and type the default IP address
http://192.168.0.10

2. In both the Login and Password fields, type the default value admin
and click Apply.

.

3. In the left menu, select Network and then LAN to configure the
network settings.

4. Select Static IP address. Type the IP Address, Subnet Mask,
Router/Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS in the Configure
connection parameters section.

5. Click Apply. The camera is now accessible by entering the assigned
IP address on the Web browser.

Important:

1. Dynamic IP Address and PPPoE should only be enabled if you
know which IP address the camera will get from the DHCP server or
ISP. Otherwise you must use the Dynamic DNS service to obtain a
domain name linked to the camera’s changing IP address first.

2. If Dynamic IP Address or PPPoE is enabled and you cannot
access the camera, you may have to reset the camera to its factory
default and then perform the network settings again. To restore
factory settings, see 10. Restoring to Default Settings in the Quick
Start Guide.
