Installation

Hardware installation

All necessary accessories can be found in the product package except for the Ethernet cable that depends on the user’s environment. The Ethernet cable should meet UTP category 5 tha t cannot exceed 100 meters.

Connect the jack of the power adapter to MiniAVServer

prior to plugging the utility end into the utility power socket. It will reduce accidental electric surge shock.

Intellisystem Technologies - http://www.intellisystem.it

As soon as the power adapter is plugged into the utility socket, the front L ED will switch between green and red for several times. After passing the self-test, the LED will shut off and the IT150W Network Camera will standby for software installation. Otherwise refer to Appendix A for troubleshooting.

To install in Ethernet,

Make sure the Ethernet is firmly connected to a switch hub. After attaching the Ethernet cable plug in the power adapter. If the LED turns out to be steady green after self-test, go to next paragraph “Software installation”. If the Ethernet is not available, the IT150W Network Camera will switch to wireless LAN mode.

To install in wireless LAN,

If the Ethernet is not available while power on,the IT150W Network Camera will search for an y access point with the SSID “default”. Once any access point is found, the LED will turn green to wait for installation. If the network environmen t cannot meet the default settings, install the I T150W Network Camera in Ethernet to proceed with wireless LAN configuration.

The IT150W Network Camera will automatically detect and operate in the available network interface with the priority of Ethernet than WLAN. Operating in either network mode, the LED will flash every second as heartbeat to indicate alive.

The IT150W Network Camera provides a general I/O terminal block with one digital input and one relay switch for device control. Pin 1 and pin 2 can be connected to an exter nal sensor and the sta te of voltage will be monitored from the initial state 'LOW'. The relay switch of pin 3 and pin 4 ca n be used to turn on or off the external device.

Consult with the dealer of the peripherals for correct installation.

Software installation

In the following content, "user" refers to those who can access the IT150W Network Camera and "administrator" refers to the supervisor who can configure the IT150W Network Camera and grant users access.

When completing the hardware installation, administrators need to run the Installer program included in the product CDROM to locate the newly installed IT150W Network Camera. Any IT150W Network Camera standby for software installation will be captured by the Installer program. Therefore there may be several entries shown in the window. Administrators may differentiate the IT150W Network Camera with the serial number and click on the entry with "Assigned" field labeled "No" to perform software installation. The serial number is printed on the labels on the carton and the rear panel of the IT150W Network Camera’s body.

To install the IT150W Network Camera for wirele ss usa ge, it is rec omme nded to ins tall in Ethernet first. After successfully entering the network configuration page, input the correct

WLAN settings, remove the Ethernet cable and recycle the power to work in WLAN.

The IP address shown in " Cur re nt IP Address" field depends on the local network. It may get from the DHCP server for the administrator's reference. If ther e is no DHCP server, administrators can choose any neighbor IP address of the PC. The Installer program will check the IP address automatically; there will be a warning message if it conflicts with others.

IT150W User’s Manual

Intellisystem Technologies - http://www.intellisystem.it

If administrators want to use another IP address, modify the IP address text field. If the administrator wants to fix the IP address of the unit, check the option "Use this IP whenever system boots" to skip future installation procedures. Otherwise the unit will need installation whenever it is restarted.

Click on “Set IP Address” button to proceed.

Enter the wireless LAN settin gs accordin g to the access point in infrastructure or Ad Hoc master. The connection mode, SSID, WEP settings are required. If th e setting s are not sure at this stage, click “Skip” to continue installation in Ethernet. All the settings can be entered later from the web configur ati on page.

After clicking on “Save”, a progressive bar will indicate the installatio n proc ess.

Congratulations! Now the IT150W Network Camera is ready for access. After clicking on

in the successful dialog, the "Assigned" field will be labeled "Yes". Administrators should keep the address information for users’ request.

If there is any error dialog rather than “Set IP OK”, please follow the next page.

Administrators may click directly on

to access the newly

installed server in the default browser.

IT150W User’s Manual

Intellisystem Technologies - http://www.intellisystem.it

When administrators choose “Use this IP whenever system boots” or fill any wireless network settings, the local FTP server port and root password of the IT150W Network Camera will be utilize d. If they have been changed prior to the installation, a confirmation window will pop out to request correct settings. After entering the correct settings, press “Retry”.

If the “Server FTP Port” or “Server Root Password” is lost, click “Cancel” to exit. In this ca se, the IP address of the IT150W Network Camera will still be installed though it is not fixed for further reboot. If the root password is correct, administrator can log in to browse the cor rect local FTP server port in the network settings. Otherwise refer to Appendix A Troubleshooting to restore factory default settings and then u se the i nstaller to in stall ag ain.

Once installation is complete, administrators should proceed to the next section "First access to the IT150W Network Camera" for necessary checks and configurations.

First access to the IT150W Network Camera

Check network settings even if connected already

Although the IT150W Network Camera already can be connected after software installation from Local Area Network, administrators should complete the network settings in the configuration page including the correct subnet mask and IP address of gateway and DNS. Ask for the network administrator or Internet service provider for the detail informati on. By default the IT150W Network Camera will need administrator's installation e very time i t reboots. I f the network settings are sure to work all the time, disable the install option. Refer to “Network settings” in system configuration page for details. Once any setting is entered incorrectly and thus hangs the IT150W Network Camera, restore the factory settings according to the steps in troubleshooting.

Add password to protect from offense from strangers

Since the administrator’s password is blank by default, the IT150W Network Camera will not ask for any password. However the administrator should change the password as soon as possible to protect from network intruders. Once the administrator’s password is saved, the IT150W Network Camera always needs user name and password before access. The administrator can setup at most twenty user accounts. Each user is able to access the IT150W Network Camera except for system configuration. Some critical func tions are lim ited only for administrators such as system configuration, user administration and software upgrade. The user name of the administrator is assigned to “root” permanently. Once the password is changed, the browser will display an authentication window to ask for the new password. There is no way to discover administrator’s password. If the password is forgotten, only restoring factory defaults can help.

Installing plug-in

If it is initial access to the IT150W Network Camera in Windows, the web browser may prompt for permission to install a new plug-in that is provided by the IT150W Network Camera. Prompt or not and the prompt message depend on the Internet security settings of user’s PC or notebook. The highest security level may prohibit any installation and execution attempt even the plug-in is safe. This plug-in has been registered for certificate and is used to display the

motioned pictures in the browser. Users may click on

to proceed. If the web browser

does not allow the user to install, check the Internet security option to lower secu rity levels or contact network supervisors.

Connection type

If it is the first access to “Connection type” page in Windows, the web browser will ask to install a new plug-in that is provided by the IT150W Network Camera. This plug-in has been registered for certificate and is used to change the parameters at the client side. Users may

click on

to install the plug-in. If the web browser does not allow the user to install,

check the Internet security to lower the security level or contact network supervisors. There are two settings for the client side. One is “Medi a Option” fo r users to de termine if t he audio should be muted. The other is “Protocol Option” to choose the connection protocol between client and server. There are three protocols to optimize your usage - UDP, TCP and HTTP. With UDP protocol, audio and video streams ca n be mo re rea l-time . But some packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images will be obscure. If TCP protocol is selected, packet loss would not occur and video display will more accurate. But the real -time effect is worse than UDP protocol. If th e networ k is protected by a firew all and it o pens HT TP p ort (80) only , HT TP protoc ol must be selected. I n this m ode, audi o will not be sent an d you c an see the video only. If you have no special needs and no idea to choose one among them, simply choose UDP. Generally the client will automatically try these protocols by the following order, UDP → TCP → HTTP. After the client connects to the IT150W Network Camera successfully, “Protocol Option” will show the working protocol. The chosen protocol will be recorded in the user's PC and used for next connection. If the network environment is changed or users want to let web browser detect again, select UDP manually to save and then return HOME to connect again.

Administrator’s capability

Tune the best performance

The best performance means the image refresh rate should be the fastest as possible and the video quality should be the best as possible at the lowest network bandwidth as possible. Three factors, “Maximum frame rate”, “Fix bit rate”, and “Fix quality” in the Video configura tion page, are correlative to the performance.

My priority is real-time motioned images

To achieve the real-time visual effect, the network bandwidth should be large enough to transmit 20 image fr ame s or more. I f you are in th e broadb and networ k over 1 Mbps, you can fix the bit rate to 1000Kbps or 1200Kbps, or fix t he quality to ac hieve the maximum frames. The maximum frame rate is 25 in 50Hz system and 30 in 60Hz system. If your network bandwidth is more than 384Kbps, you can fix the bit rate according to your bandwidth and set the maximum frame rate to 25 or 30. If the images vary dramatically in your environment, you may slow down the maximum frame rate to 20 to decrease the transmitted data for better video quality since human could not e asily te ll the d iffer ence betw een 20 and 25 or 30 fr a mes per second. If your network bandwidth is below 384 Kbps, you should fix the bit rate according to your bandwidth and try out the best performa nce by tuning the maximum frame rate. The larger frame rat e in slow network will blur th e images. Y ou may also tr y to choose “Half” in size option for better image s or “Hal fx2” for larger im age siz e. Note that even you ha ve well tuned

the parameters, the performance may still vary from perso n to person when multiple users view at the same time. Because the network has burst constraint and everyone’s environment is not the same, any poor connection will drop the normal per formance.

My priority is clear identification for each image

To have the best video qualit y, you should fix the quality to det ailed or ex ce ll ent and t un e th e maximum frame rate to suit for your netwo rk bandwidth. If you get some broken pictures in slow network, you can choose TCP protocol in “Connection type” for more accurate transmission but the received images may have certain time delay. Note that any slow connection in multiple users wil l drop the proper performance.

I want to compromise between real-time and clear images

If you have a broadband network, choose fix quality to normal or better rather than fix bandwidth. Otherw ise fix the ba ndwidth a ccording to your actual netwo rk speed and s et the frame rate to 30. If the images look bad, select the lower frame rate above 15. If the images are not improved, select the lower bandwidth.

Q What if I forget my password? A After the administrat or's password i s assigned, every access to the IT 150W Network Camera needs authentication. If you are one of the managed users, you have to ask the administrator for the password. If you are the administrator, there is no way to recover the root password except for restoring factory default. Refer to Appendix A for the procedures.

Q Why can I not watch video from the IT150W Network Camera after it is authenticated? A There are many possible scenarios regarding this proble m,

1. If you have just installe d t he IT150 W Netwo rk Camera and are unable to watch the video, check if the heartbeat LED is blinking or the lens cap is removed. If the heartbeat LED is dim, perform the softwar e inst a ll at ion ag ain .

2. If the IT150W Network C amer a is well in stalled an d you are acces sing the I T150W Ne twork Camera for the first time using Internet Explorer , adjust th e securit y lev el of Int ernet E xplorer to allow installation of plug-ins.

3. If the problem still exists after adjusting, and the message over the image window is showing "connecting", the network traffic may be too crowded.

Q What is the plug-in for? A The plug-in provided by the IT150W Networ k Camera i s used to displ ay motion p ictures an d audio in Internet Explorer. If your system does not allow installation of any plug-in software, the security level of the web browser may need to be lowered. It is recommended that you consult your net work supervisors in you r office regarding adjustment of the security level. Software installation may be regulated in some offices.

Q Why is the timestamp different from the system time of my PC or notebook? A The timestamp is based on the system time of the IT150W Network Camera. It is maintained by a real-time clock inside and can be automatically synchronized with the time server if the IT150W Network Camera is connected to the Internet and the function is enabled. Differences of several hours may result from the time zone se tting.

Q Can I install it on ceiling? A Yes. There are flip and mirror options in video configuration page to correct the images for upside down installation.
