1.4 The USB function
The DDK-1700 can provide two separate functions by connecting the DDK-1700 with a PC via the
USB connector
1. Using an SD card as a card reader.
Insert an SD card into the DDK-1700 and then connect to a computer. You may then transfer files
between the SD card and the PC. Once you've connected your DDK-1700 to your computer
Windows will detect the connection and ask you what you want to do with the SD card.
2. Using an SD card as a configuration tool.
Before using the USB configuration setting page remember to remove the SD card or the
computer won’t show this window.
DHCP ON
DHCP OFF
(default)
NOTE: After changing the settings, click the “Apply” button. All changes will be effective
after removing the USB connector.
NOTE: After the IP address has been changed or reset, unplug the network cable and
then plug it in again to make sure the network connection is in normal mode.

2. INSTALLATION
Follow the instructions and the diagram below to set up the system.
NOTE: The DDK-1700’s Video Out connector can be connected to a monitor via RCA
connection. When connected you will see information on the monitor screen,
including the DDK-1700’s factory default IP address (192.168.1.168). The DDK-1700’s
IP address will only appear if there is a connection between the DDK-1700 and
another device.
2.1 Hardware Installation
1. If using external power, connect power adapter to DDK-1700.
2. Connect network cable to DDK-1700’s RJ45 connection.
3. Confirm the correct network connection status.
4. Enter DDK-1700’s IP address into your browser.
NOTE: The red light power indicator of the DDK-1700 flashes when the power supply is on.
Two-color network indicator:
1. Indicator is off when the network is disconnected.
2. The green light illuminates when the network is connected. The flashing orange light
flashes indicates network connection.

2.2 Updating System Software
If the system software of the DDK-1700 needs to be upgraded, follow these steps
Important: Before carrying out this procedure, please ensure the SD card is working and the
file of the system firmware is intact
1. Create a directory with the name DDK-1700 on the SD card if it does not already exist.
2. Copy the file UPDATE.BIN to the DDK-1700 -directory.
3. Shut down DDK-1700’s power.
4. Insert the SD CARD into the DDK-1700.
5. Remove the Ethernet cable from the RJ-45 port and then power on camera.
6. Within 5 to 10 seconds a message reading "UPDATE PROCESSING" will show up on the
screen in a blue background. DO NOT power off the DDK-1700 while update process is
running until the message "UPDATE OK RESET PLEASE" appears on the screen. This may
take 15 to 30 seconds to appear.
7. If the message "UPDATE NG RESET PLEASE" appears, write down the error messages
shown on the screen and contact manufacturer. Power off the DDK-1700 when the update
process is finished and then remove the SD card from the camera.
8. Reconnect the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port. Power ON the IP camera.
9. Verify the version of the system software.
WARNING:
If the power of the DDK-1700 is suddenly lost in step 7, remove the SD card first and
then power the camera on. If the DDK-1700 operates normally repeat step 3. Otherwise
contact the manufacturer.
If the message "CSUM ERROR" appears in step 7, there is a problem with the
UPDATE.BIN file. .

3.2 Network Settings Configuration
3.2.1 Enabling DHCP Function
The DDK-1700’s default setting is DHCP OFF. Users can build the camera’s working environment
with a static IP address. The default static IP is 192.168.1.168.
3.2.2 Setting an IP Address
You need to set an IP address for the unit if DHCP is not supported on the network. Otherwise,
please follow the instructions given below:
Note: The default static IP is 192.168.1.168.
Set the IP, MASK and GATEWAY settings to the following:.
IP: 192.168.1.X
MASK: 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY: 0.0.0.0
NOTE:
NOTE: When connecting to a network, each connected DDK-1700 must be assigned a
When a DDK-1700 is connected to a WAN, you must acquire a unique, permanent IP
address and correctly configure the MASK and G ATEWAY settings according to
your network architecture. If you have any questions regarding those settings,
please consult a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
unique IP address which must be in the same class type as your network address.
IP addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example,
192.168.1.1 Therefore, if the connected network is identified as Class C, for example,
the first three sets of numbers of the DDK-1700 IP address must be the same as the
network address. If the connected network is identified as Class B, the first two sets
of numbers of the DDK-1700 IP address must be the same as the network address. If
you have any questions regarding these settings, please consult a q ualified MIS
professional or your ISP.

The metering method determines the exposure. Different metering
methods measure the subject brightness differently.
Center-weighted: The metering is weighted at the center and then
averaged for the entire scene.
Spot: This is for metering the central part of the entire scene.
Exposure Mode controls a camera by shutter speed and the lens aperture.
Indoor: The optimum exposure setting is pre-programmed for the indoor
environment. The default shutter time is 1/30~1/120 (1/25~1/100)
and the maximum gain is 36 dB.
Outdoor: The optimum exposure setting is pre-programmed for the
outdoor environment. The default shutter time is 1/30~1/750
(1/25~1/750) and the maximum gain is 36 dB.
Night: The optimum exposure setting is pre-programmed for the night
environment. The default shutter time is 1/30~1/750 (1/25~1/500)
and the maximum gain is 12 dB.
Moving: The optimum exposure setting is pre-programmed for moving
subjects. The default shutter time is 1/120~1/1,000
(1/100~1/1,000) and the maximum gain is 36 dB.
Low noise: The optimum exposure setting is pre-programmed to reduce
the noise. The default shutter time is 1/8~1/30 (1/7.5~1/25) and
the maximum gain is 36 dB.
Customize 1-3: You can customize an exposure mode by adjusting
individual parameters like Gain and Shutter.
Schedule: In the Schedule mode, you can set the customize schedule.
Select a schedule and set the time period. You can assign one
of the exposure modes to be the function mode of the
Remaining time. Check and press to Save.
Note: The period of the schedule can’t be set across midnight. For
example, if you want to set a schedule of Night mode from
22:00 to 04:00, you have to (1) check a schedule and select the
Night mode and set the period from 22:00 to 24:00, then (2)
enable the next schedule and set it to Night mode and se t the
period from 00:00 to 04:00. Remember to click Save to activate.
