1: Product Overview
1.1 Network Cameras
Network cameras are closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras that use the
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to transmit image data over an Ethernet or Wireless
LAN connection. As such, network cameras are also referred to as IP cameras.
IP cameras are primarily used for surveillance applications. A number of IP
cameras are normally deployed together with a digital video recorder (DVR) or
a network video recorder (NVR) to form a video surveillance system. Since
network cameras are equipped with an operating system, they do not require
the presence of a DVR or NVR in order to function. In addition, a network
camera can transmit data in a local network as well as over the Internet.
Access to a network camera is typically achieved with a standard Web browser,
such as MS Internet Explorer or Firefox.

4: Installation
4.1 Connecting to the Camera
Connect the RJ45 network cable from th e camera’s LAN port to your network;
e.g., the router or a LAN switch, then power on the camera . The boot sequence
will take about one minute. You will need to use the camera’s power adapter, or
you can connect the RJ45 cable to a PoE-enabled switch or injector to power
the camera.
By default, the network camera (or video server) searches for a DHCP server
on the network and obtains an IP address automatically. A very common DHCP
server is a router, a device that is found on most networks.
The presence of a DHCP server on your network simplifies the installation and
users with limited knowledge of TCP/IP networks can install the network
camera in minutes. If no DHCP server is found, the network camera will revert
to its default IP address 192.168.1.221.
On Windows systems, you want to use the IP Installer utility t hat finds the
camera on the network and lets you make changes to the configuration.
Once the camera is set up properly, it can be accessed with the computer’s
Web browser. The following sections describe the procedure for Windows,
MacOS and Linux users.

IP Installer for Windows
When the program starts, you are presented with the screen shown below.
Depending on your camera model, the screen may look slightly different, but
the functionality is the same. The IP Installe r utility lists all cameras that can be
found on your network. With this utility you can make changes to the
configuration, perform a firmware upgrade, restore the camera to factory
default values, and reboot the camera. Note: It may take up to three minutes
for IP Installer to show a camera that has been recently (re-)started.
The application has three main tabs: Camera, User and About.
Camera tab
UPnP device list: All cameras that are found on the network are displayed on
this tab. Cameras that are shown in red are currently
configured for a different network and cannot be accessed
with the Web browser before the IP settings of the camera
have been adjusted to your network (see Setup).
Search: The Search button can be used to refresh the view. Typically
it is not required to push the button, as the utility starts
scanning the network as soon as it is started.
Link to IE: Select the camera from the list and click this button to open
the camera with MS Internet Explorer. Note: This function
does not work for other Web browsers; however, you can
open the browser manually and open the URL
http://camera_ip_as_shown_in_list (in the example above,
you would open http://192.168.0.102).

Reboot: This function lets you reboot the camera. The procedure is
identical to the factory default function, except the camera
does not lose the settings.
Camera Tab – Setup Function
When you click on the Setup button, you first need to enter a valid
administrator user name and password (see above). You will then be pres ented
with the first page of the Setup menu. The first page shows so me basic
information about the camera.
Click the Next button to open the next page.
- 17 -
User Account Settings Page
User Name: Enter the user name you wish to use for the new account.
Password: Enter the password for the new user account.
Confirm: Type the password in again.
Mode: There are three possible values to choose from:
1. Admin: User has full access to all camera functions.
2. Operator: User can view the live image and change image
related settings such as brightness, contrast , etc.

wants to change camera-related settings. By setting the
Viewer authentication to off, you allow any user to view the
camera’s live image.
Click the Next button to open the next configuration page.
- 18 -
Date/Time Settings Page
The network camera is equipped with an internal clock. You can display the
current date and time information on the video, so that when you look at
recorded video material or images you can easily tell when the recording was
made. Before you can use this function, you need to defin e how the camera
obtains the time.
Current Setting: Displays the current date and time.
PC clock: Displays the time of the PC that you are using right now.
Adjust: Keep curre nt setting – no changes are made.
Synchronize with PC – instructs the camera to retrieve the
current date and time from the PC.
Manual setting - allows you to set up the date and time
yourself.
Synchronize with NTP – The camera will obtain the time from
an NTP server. Normally it is no t required to change the NTP
server, as the default server “pool.ntp.org” is always
available. You can, however, manually overwrite the NTP
server by un-checking the option “auto.”
Interval: Define how often the camera should re-synchronize
the time with the NTP server’s time.
Time Zone: Select the correct time zone for the camera to display the
correct date and time.
Click the Next button to open the next configuration page.
- 19 -
Network Settings Page
The default configuration is shown above, and for most users there should be
no need to change these settings. Advanced users can change the following
values:
HTTP Port: This is the Web server port of the camera. The default value
is 80. You can change the value from 80 to a value between
1024 and 65535. Note that when you change the HTTP port,
you need to append the new port to the address of the
camera; e.g., http://192.168.0.102:1024.
IP Address: By default the camera obtains the IP address from a DHCP
server in the network. You can set up the camera with a static
IP address as well by activating the option “Use the follow ing
IP.” If you are not familiar with IP addresses in general or the
IP address setup of your network, you should contact your
network administrator for the correct values.
DNS Setting: A DNS Server (DNS stands for Domain Name System) allows
the camera to contact an e-mail, FTP or NTP server using its
proper domain name (e.g., mail.mydomain.com) rather than
its IP address. If you set up the camera with a static IP
address, chances are that you will need to provide the DNS
server settings yourself as well.
Click the Next button to open the next configuration page.
- 20 -
PPPoE Settings Page
This page allows defining of the PPPoE settings of the camera. This function is
not required for the vast majority of users, and if you are not planning on
connecting the camera directly to a DSL modem (no network present, just the
camera connects directly to the modem) you can safely skip this pa ge.
PPPoE is a common connection method for ADSL Internet services. It is not
required for cable modem service, or newer DSL services that operate with
dynamic IP addresses.
PPPoE connections require a user ID and password that are typically provided
by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). If there is no router in your network,
and you connect the camera straight to the DSL modem, you need to enter the
user ID and password here, so that the camera can connect to the Internet.
Note: The camera does not support idle timeout, meaning, it stays connected
to the Internet indefinitely. Users of time- or volume-based Internet services
need to be aware of this as the camera can cause significant usage charges for
the service. It is always a better option to have the router handle the PPPoE
connection to the Internet Service Provider, instead of the camera.
Click the Next button to open the next configuration page.
- 21 -
DDNS Settings Page
DDNS stands for “Dynamic DNS.” DDNS is useful for all users who have an
Internet service with a dynamic IP address. Most DSL services u tilize IP
addresses that are highly dynamic and change as often as once every 24 hours.
Cable modem services typically keep the IP address assigned to a user for a
longer period of time; e.g., up to 30 days. In any case, after a certain amount
of time the IP address of your network will change unless you have a more
business-type Internet service that provides a permanent, static IP address.
Why does it matter if the IP address that the ISP assigns to you changes? If
you never want to access the camera remotely over the Internet, it wouldn’t
and you can skip this section.
If you want to connect to your camera from outside y o ur network, the changing
IP addresses will make this task very complicated, as you never know under
which IP address you can reach your camera. DDNS is the solution to the
problem. Services like DYNDNS.ORG allow signing up for a free account and
setting up domain names like “mycamera.dyndns.org.” T he DDNS service
assigns the current IP address that your ISP has assigned to you to the domain
name you have set up, so that you can always reach your camera at
http://mycamera.dyndns.org (example).
Note: We recommend using the DDNS client that is integrated in your router for
the DDNS service instead of the camera’s DDNS cli ent.
The network camera supports three DDNS providers:
DYNDNS.ORG, DHS.ORG and TZO.ORG.
Server name: Select the service (e.g., DYNDNS.O RG)
User ID: Enter your DDNS user account password here.
Password: Enter the password of your DDNS account here.
Confirm: Repeat the DDNS account password here.
Hostname: Enter the dynamic host name (e.g., “mycamera.dynsns.org”
here. Do not enter http://
Click the Next button to open the next configuration page.

Language Settings Page
The Intellinet network camera pr ovides a multi-language user interface for
Web-browser access. In order to use this function, you first need to install the
additional languages by uploading them to the camera. The default language is
English. Additional languages can be found on the Installation CD, or you can
download them from the Intellinet Web site at www.networkipcamera.com.
In order to install an additional language, activ ate the option “Upload language
pack” and click Browse. Then select the folder where the language files are
located. The image below shows the available file s.
Select the file of choice and click Open to get back to the language settings
page. Note the file location has been entered in the field in front of the Browse
button.
Click the Next button to open the final configuration page.
- 23 -
Apply Settings Page
This is the last page of the Setup.
All configuration changes you have mad e on the previous screens will be saved
when you click the Apply button. If you have selected an additional language to
be installed on the previous page, cl icking Apply will install that language as
well.
After you click Apply, the main screen of IP Installer shows up, and after a
period of 60 to 180 seconds, the camera will show up in the UPnP device list.
You may need to click the Search button to get the camera to show up again.
Camera tab – Upgrade function
The firmware is basically the operating system of the camera. New functions
are introduced from time to time, and compatibility patches and fixes are
released to make your Intellinet camera an even better product. A firmware
upgrade replaces the internal camera software with a new version.
Note: A failed firmware upgrade can render your camera inoperable.
Before you start with the firmware upgrade, ask yourself a few questions:
1. Has Technical Support instructed me to upgrade, or is my camera operating
erratically or do certain functions in the camera not work as they should?
2. Am I absolutely sure that I downloaded the correct firmware file for my
camera from the Intellinet Web site?
3. Can I be reasonably certain that the power will not go out during the next 10
minutes?
4. Are all unnecessary programs on my computer closed?
