1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS SOHO Network IP Camera. This Camera sends live video through the Internet to a web browser or camera viewer anywhere in the world! This compact, self-contained unit lets you keep an eye on your home, your kids, and your workplace — whatever is important to you.
How does the Camera do all of this? Unlike standard “web cams” that require an attached PC, the SOHO Network IP Camera can connect directly to a network. The Motion JPEG video compression produces a high quality, high-frame rate, 640 x 480 video stream.
The included Camera Viewer utility lets you record the video stream to your local hard drive, “live” or on a predetermined schedule.
Use the instructions in this User Manual to help you integrate the Camera into your network. These instructions should be all you need to get the most out of the SOHO Network IP Camera.
