1.4 The USB function

The DDK-1700D can provide two separate functions by connecting the DDK-1700D with a PC via the USB connector

1. Using an SD card as a card reader.

Insert an SD card into the DDK-1700D and then connect to the PC. You may then transfer files between the SD card and the PC. Once you've connected your DDK-1700D 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 PC 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-1700D’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-1700D’s factory default IP address (192.168.1.168). The DDK-1700D’s IP address will only appear if there is a connection between the DDK-1700D and another device.

2.1 Hardware Installation

1. If using external power, connect power adapter to DDK-1700D.

2. Connect network cable to DDK-1700Ds RJ45 connection.

3. Confirm the correct network connection status.

4. Enter DDK-1700D’s IP address into your browser.

Step 6. The dome is now attached to the

ceiling.

2.3 Placing a Desiccant Pack Inside the DDK-1700D

The DDK-1700D comes with a desiccant pack which should be placed inside the camera using two-sided adhesive tape. The desiccant pack is for reducing the moisture and humidity inside the camera and prevents moisture from condensing on the lens or its cover.

If the user decides to remove the DDK-1700D cover after more than a few months of use, the used desiccant pack should be removed and place a replacement pack inside the camera.

1. Adhere the desiccant pack to the inner side of the DDK-1700D.

2. Use two-sided adhesive tape to attach the desiccant pack.

3. Reattach the cover of the DDK-1700D.

DDK-1700D:

2.4 Updating System Software

If the system software of the DDK-1700D 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 UPGRADE on the SD card if it does not already exist.

2. Copy the file UPDATE.BIN to the UPGRADE -directory.

3. Shut down DDK-1700D’s power.

4. Insert the SD CARD into the DDK-1700D.

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-1700D 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-1700D 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-1700D is suddenly lost in step 7, remove the SD card first and

then power the camera on. If the DDK-1700D 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-1700D’s default setting is DHCP ON. An IP address can be obtained automatically from a

DHCP server. This function will only work if the LAN has a DHCP server.

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-1700D must be assigned a

When a DDK-1700D is connected to a WAN, you must acquire a unique, permanent IP address and correctly configure the MASK and GATEWAY 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-1700D 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-1700D IP address must be the same as the network address. If you have any questions regarding these settings, please consult a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.

3.3 TCP/IP Communication Software

Follow the procedure below to install the TCP/IP communication program on your computer.

1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.

2. Double click the Network Connections icon

3. Right-click your network connection and then click Properties.

4. On the General tab, check if the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is included in the list. If the TCP/IP is included, proceed to section 3.5. If it is not included, please follow section 3.4 to install the TCP/IP.

3.4 TCP/IP Installation

On the General tab of Connection Properties, under “This connection uses the following items”, click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). Then click Install. Select Protocol from the network component type then click Add. Select Microsoft TCP/IP from the network protocol then click OK. Click Close to return to the Network Connections window.

3.5 TCP/IP configuration setting

Click Start > Control Panel > Network Connections. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties. Before completing installation to the LAN, make sure the Internet connection works properly.

If you are using a DHCP server, select Obtain an IP address automatically. Any assigned IP address for the connected DDK-1700D must be in the same class type as the server. If there is no DHCP server, please select specify an IP address and enter the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway of your choosing to your PC. This IP address must be different from other network IP devices but in the same class type.

3.6 Connection Testing

With the previous settings, follow the instructions below to ensure whether you have established the connection successfully.

1. Click Start > All Programs > Command Prompt.

2. Enter ping XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (the DDK-1700D’s IP address), then enter. (See the sample

screen below). ** This is the IP address for a DDK-1700D that is assigned for the connected camera.

If you receive a response as in the screen below, the connection hasn’t been successfully established. Please re-check all the hardware and software installations by repeating sections

3.4 and 3.5. If you still can’t establish the connection after rechecking, please contact your

dealer.

If you receive a response as in the screen below, you have successfully made the connection.
