MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
1. Introduction
The IP Camera is designed with the “user-friendly” idea deep in mind. The user
can install the IP Camera easily on his/her home network and then access the IP
Camera anywhere in the world through the accompanied video management software
- CamView program without setting some complicated DNS name or changing the
router’s settings. It’s just a plug & play action.
With 3GPP/ISMA support, users can see the video of the IP camera on any 3G
mobile phone anywhere, anytime. The big difference is that there is software for
downloading to the mobile phone so that the fixed IP address is not needed for the IP
camera. The video settings including frame rate, resolution and bandwidth could be
different for PC monitoring and mobile viewing.
For indoor surveillance and remote monitoring, the IP Camera provides the best
image quality in its class, and excellent performance. The IP Camera also provides
the best bandwidth efficiency, it offers 640x480 resolution, 30 fps frame rate, real
MPEG4 image compression ability. The built-in microphone enables remote users to
not only view, but also listen for additional monitoring options.
The NAS storage function can easily turn any NAS device to a NVR device. The
schedule function provides full scheduling of email/ftp sending, motion detection and
NAS recording event. With the built-in Web server, the IP Camera can also be
managed from a standard web browser on a Windows computer.
The IP Camera provides both wireless IEEE 802.11 b/g and wired Ethernet
network interfaces for flexible installation. It supports the WEP and WPA (Wi-Fi
Protected Access) security modes to provide the best security for wireless networks.
(IP Cam model only support wired Ethernet interface)
The IP Camera provides motion detection function. Users can easily setup this
function and receive the notification with the snapshot images through email and/or ftp
when some motion events are detected.
The IP Camera is ideal for securing small businesses, home offices and
residences over a local area network and/or the Internet.
The differences
It’s very easy to see the video of the IP Camera, you only need to key in the
ID/Password of the IP Camera any where in the world, you do not need to remember
the IP address or domain name or DDNS name or port number. And you do not need
to modify the settings(like port mapping, fixed IP, DDNS, virtual server) of the
NAT/router devices, it’s just a plug & play usage.

MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
So, the differences are the followings:
♦ Public IP address needed ? No
♦ Dynamic DNS needed ? No
♦ Port mapping in router? No
♦ Virtual server in router ? No
♦ UPnP support in router ? No
♦ What’s needed ? ID and Password

2. Hardware description and quick installation/usage
The IP Camera is designed to be very easy to install and use. First, let’s see the
major components of the IP Camera products.
2.1. Major hardware components.
The major components on the front panel of the IP Camera products are the
built-in microphone, lens and LEDs :
1. Microphone – for receiving the audio/voice. Effective distance is about 5 meters.
2. Lens – the focus of the lens is fixed, you do not need to spend time to adjust the
focus, the effective focus range is from 30cm to infinity.
3. Status indication LED (red) – this LED is to indicate the Internet connection status.
When the Internet connection is connected, the LED will be constant red light. If
there is any Internet connection problem, the LED will be blinking red light.
4. Ethernet indication LED (blue) – this LED is to indicate if the Ethernet link is ok
and packet traffic is sending/receiving. When the Ethernet cable is connected, the
LED is constant blue light. When there is packet sending/receiving, the LED is
blinking blue light.
Figure 2-1: Major components in the front panel
The major components on the back panel of the IP Camera products are the
bracket screw jack, power jack, Ethernet jack and reset button:
1. Bracket screw jack – this is the position to screw in the bracket of the IP Camera.
With the bracket, you can put the IP Camera on the desk, on the wall or on the
ceiling.
2. Power jack – this is the place to plug in the power adaptor. The power needed for
this IP Camera is 5V/1.0A, please make sure you are using the correct power
adaptor.
3. Ethernet jack – this is the place to plug in the RJ45 Ethernet cable. When the
8
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
Ethernet link is ok, the Ethernet indication LED on the front side will be blue light.
4. Reset button – this is the button to reset the IP Camera to default factory settings.
You need to use a small stick like pencil or tooth stick to press the reset button for
more than 3 seconds to enable the reset function. Usually when you forgot the
administrator account, you will probably need to do this reset action to reset to the
default factory settings. Please refer to section 3.15 for more details.
5. Antenna jack(for Cam(w)) – this is the place to hold the wireless antenna. The
antenna must be plugged to let the 802.11 b/g wireless work.
Figure 2-2: Major components in the back panel
2.2. Quick installation and usage
There are only three things that you need to do to see the video from the IP Camera.
1. Connect the IP Camera to the home/office network.
2. Install the CamView software on the notebook/PC.
3. Key in the ID/password of the IP Camera(from the ID/Password card) on the
CamView, and then you can see the video.
First, Connect the IP Camera to the home/office network
Please connect the IP Camera accessaries to the IP Camera body correctly,
including the antenna, bracket, power adapter and Ethernet cable, as shown in Figure
2-3. And connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the home network or office
network. Usually, this Ethernet cable is plugged into a home NAT/router device or an
Ethernet switch if in the office, as shown in Figure 2-4. Since the default settings of the
IP Camera use DHCP function and very often there is a DHCP server on most of the
Home/office network, the IP Camera should be connected to the Internet immediately.
The Internet status LED is constant red light to indicate this good connection status. If
the LED is blinking, please refer to section 3.3~3.5 to try other network settings.

2.3 Wireless connection (for Cam(w))
The IP Camera can also be connected to the home/office network through the
802.11 b/g wireless connection. There are only three things that you need to do to
have the wireless connection:
1. Set the WiFi security settings on the web configuration page.
2. Test if the WiFi settings are correct.
3. Unplug the Ethernet cable.
First, set the WiFi security settings on the web configuration page.
Make sure there is a WiFi router or AP on your home or office network. Write
down the WiFi security parameters used in this WiFi AP/router, including the SSID ,
security mode, encryption protocols and the “key” values. The supported WiFi security
mode of the IP Camera is WEP(64 bits and 128 bits) and WPA-PSK(TKIP and AES).
In most of the home/office WiFi environment, this is quite enough.
The easiest way to set the WiFi settings on the IP Camera is through CamView
software. Right-click the searched IP Camera in the “Auto Search” list and click the
“Web Configure” to open the login window of the IP Camera. Fill in all the WiFi
security parameters you have written down. The WiFi configuration is complete now.
Please refer to section 3.4 for more detailed description if needed
.
Second, test if the WiFi settings are correct
You can now test if the above WiFi settings are correct. Click the “WiFi test” on
the “WiFi Security” settings web page. The testing result will be displayed in less than
60 seconds. If the test is failed, please check the WiFi security parameters and test
again.
Third, unplug the Ethernet cable
If the WiFi test is successful, you can then enable the WiFi connection by
unplugging the Ethernet cable from the IP Camera. The IP Camera will detect the
Ethernet cable unplugged condition and start the WiFi connection. After the WiFi is
connected, the IP Camera will connect to the Internet immediately.
Notice :
1. Please remember that the WiFi connection will use a different IP address, you will
need to do the “Auto Search” function in the CamView again to find the IP Camera
again after the WiFi is connected.
2. If you want to switch back to the wired Ethernet connection, just plug in the
Ethernet cable into the IP Camera again. Do not need to disable the WiFi function
on the web pages.

3.3. Network
The Network page allows you to modify the network settings of the wired
Ethernet. The default settings use DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. In
most of the home and office network environment, there is a DHCP server running. In
this situation, by using this default settings, the IP Camera can work immediately in
most of the time.
If the Ethernet cable is unplugged, the IP Camera will lose connection. But as
soon as the Ethernet cable is plugged in again, the IP Camera will obtain a new IP
address immediately.
Figure 3-5: Network settings page for DHCP function
If the network environment does not support DHCP function, you will need to set
the network settings of the IP Camera manually. Please fill all the fields including “IP
address”, “Subnet mask”, “Default gateway” and “DNS server” to let the network work.
All these settings must be correct for your network environment, otherwise the IP
Camera can not work.
The default setting is “Obtain an IP address automatically”.

MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
3.5. Advanced Network
In some special situation, your network environment only provides PPPoE
connection(ADSL service), there is no NAT/router available. You will then need to set
the PPPoE settings in the “Advanced Network” page. Only the PPPoE username and
password are needed to let PPPoE work. After the “Save&Apply” button is pressed,
the PPPoE function will work immediately. You can check the “Registration status” in
the “Information” page to see if the IP Camera is registered using the PPPoE
connection.
Please be noticed that the DHCP or static IP settings in the “Network” page can
work together with the PPPoE connection. Only that the PPPoE has higher priority, so,
if the PPPoE is working, the IP Camera will use PPPoE to connect to the Internet.
The default setting is “Disable PPPoE”.
Figure 3-10: Advanced network settings page

MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
3.6. Video Settings
The IP Camera is designed to provide high quality video for viewing from
CamView software. In this page, you cam modify some settings related to the video
viewing:
1. Password(play video) – this is the password needed for viewing the video from the
CamView software. Together with the IP CAM ID, you can view the video of this IP
Camera anywhere in the world through the Internet.
2. Internet speed – this is the Internet bandwidth of your network environment.
Higher value will generate higher video quality. But if your internet connection can
not provide more bandwidth than the specified value, the video quality could
degrade. So, please key in a value that is lower than your internet bandwidth.
3. Select resolution & frame rate automatically – you can let the system select the
suitable video resolution and frame rate automatically for you. The selection is
based on the “Internet speed” value. This is the recommended default setting.
4. Resolution – there are three choices : 160x120, 320x240 and 640x480. If you
decide to choose the value manually, you can choose one of the three values. But,
please be noticed that if the Internet speed is slow(low value), high
resolution(640x480) or frame rate could cause very bad video quality.
5. Frame rate – the video frame display rate. Higher value means faster movement
and continuity in the video display.
6. Favor/Preference – choose between “Video motion” and “Image quality”. When
the real bandwidth is not enough for the selected “Internet speed”, the system will
need to degrade the video motion or image quality. This selection will decide if the
user want to maintain the “video motion” or “image quality” when the internet
speed is not good enough.
7. Brightness – the brightness of the video, lower value means darker display.
8. Sharpness – the sharpness of the video, higher value means sharper video.
9. Low light sensitivity – The low light sensitivity could be normal, high or very high.
When the low light sensitivity is high, the system could see better video clearance
under low light situation, but the moving object will not be very clear under this low
light environment. Under very dark environment, set to “very high” will get better
video clearance. The default value of this setting is “high”.
10. Video color – choose between “colored” and “black&white”.
11. Video flip – can do “normal” or “flip” video displa y, this is needed if the ip camera is
hung on the ceiling or wall.
12. Outdoor/Indoor video – for better video display quality, modify this setting when
taking indoor or outdoor video. The default setting is “Outdoor video”, in most
cases, this is also ok for indoor usage. Under some special cases, there could be
24
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
some strip lines on the video display when the IP camera is taking indoor video. In
this situation, change the setting to “Indoor video” will solve the problem. Please
also be noticed that in “Indoor video” setting, the video display of outdoor view is
very vague. For indoor usage, if there is strong sun light into the room, please
select the “Indoor+sun light” choice.
13. Enable/disable audio microphone – you can enable or disable the audio
microphone on the IP Camera. If disable, there will be no voice on the CamView
video viewing.
14. Enable/disable time display on video – if enabled, the date/time of the system will
be displayed on the left-upper corner of the video.
When this modification is “Save&Apply”ed, it works immediately, but all the
connected video viewing users will be disconnected.
Figure 3-11: Video settings page
25
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
3.7. 3GPP/RTSP settings
The IP Camera is able to be viewed from a 3G mobile phone, for detailed
settings on the 3G mobile phone, please refer to Appendix E.
Users can disable the 3G mobile access ability in this page. After the
3GPP/RTSP feature is disabled, no 3G mobile phone is allowed to access the video
of the IP camera. When this is disabled, the rtsp stream with MPEG2 audio is still
working, please refer to Appendix F for more details about rtsp stream with MPEG2
audio.
When the 3GPP is enabled, the video frame rate, resolution and bandwidth for
3G mobile access could be set independently from the video settings for
CamView(PC) access. The maximum allowed resolution is 352x255 and maximum
allowed bandwidth is 256 kbps. When the audio is enabled for both 3GPP and
CamView(PC) and the video/audio is displayed in CamView, the audio will be
disabled in 3G mobile display.
The “Access URL” line is the url address for 3G mobile phone to input for seeing
the video of the IP camera. Different 3G mobile may need to input this url in different
way, detailed information could be found in the user manual of different 3G mobiles.
Please be noticed that usually public IP address is needed for the IP camera, so that
the 3G mobile could access the IP camera’s video.
The default setting is “Enable 3GPP/RTSP”.
Figure 3-12: 3GPP/RTSP enabled page

MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
3.8. Email/ftp alarm
The IP Camera provides the Email/ftp function, you can enable or schedule the
Email/ftp ability in this page, the IP Camera product will then send out an email with a
jpeg picture attached in the email and/or send out the jpeg picture file to a ftp server.
The related settings are explained below:
1. Email/FTP trigger – choose between “motion”, “schedule” and “disable”
A. If “motion” is selected, it means that when there is a motion detected, the
system will send out the email and/or ftp with the captured video snapshot.
B. If “schedule” is selected, it means that the email/ftp alarm detection and
triggering will be scheduled by the “scheduling” in section 3.10.
C. “disable” will disable the email/ftp alarm.
2. Motion sensitivity – there are three possible choices in this field.
“High” means high sensitivity, i.e., the motion detection is triggered by a very
small movement in the video image. If “High” is selected and the size of the
moving object is larger than about 1% of the whole video area, it is detected.
Please be noticed that the real size of the object could be large or small, anyway,
the detection is only based on the relative size of the object. Probably a small
pencil moving near the IP Camera could be detected, but a moving car far away
from the IP Camera could not be detected.
“Low” means low sensitivity, i.e., the motion detection is triggered by a very large
movement. If the size of the moving object is larger than about 10% of the whole
video area, it is detected. “Median” means 3% to trigger the detection.
3. Send email message – if this item is enabled, the IP Camera will send out an
email message with the jpeg picture attached to the specified email account.
4. Email recipient – this is the email address to receive the detection notice message.
An email message with the jpeg picture file named by the date/time of the
triggered moment will reach this address.
5. SMTP server – this is the SMTP server that will help to transfer the email message.
This server is irrelevant to the “Email recipient” address.
6. SMTP username/password – this is the account to use the SMTP server to
transfer the email message. The SMTP server and username/password account
are only for transfer the email message to the “Email recipient”, the “Email
recipient” could be on another email server or any reachable email address. The
username and password fields could be left empty if no authentication is needed
for the SMTP server.
7. SMTP server test – after the settings are filled, you could press “SMTP server test”
to check if all the settings are correct.
27
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
8. Send FTP message – if this item is enabled, the IP Camera will send out a jpeg
picture file to the specified ftp account.
9. FTP server – this is the FTP server address to receive the jpeg file.
10. FTP username/password – this is the username/password to login into the FTP
server, so, this triggered jpeg file will be allowed to reach this FTP server.
11. Remote folder – the jpeg file will be put under this folder of the FTP server.
When this modification is “Save&Apply”ed, it works immediately, but all the
connected video viewing users will be disconnected.
The default setting is “Disable”.

3.9. NAS settings
The IP Camera provides the recording of the video files into a standard NAS
( Network Access Storage ) device. The IP camera connects to the NAS device using
the standard LMX_NS/CIFS/SSN protocols that are the same as the Microsoft
Windows network neighborhood protocols. This makes the IP camera easily record
the video files to all the standard NAS devices in the market. Since there are a lot of
different choices, including prices and scales, users can decide by themselves which
is best for their needs. By using this function, the standard NAS device is becoming a
NVR ( Network Video Recorder ) device.
Notice : when the IP camera is doing NAS recording, this is counted as one video
user. Please refer to appendix B about allowed maximum video users.
1. If the “Always Recording” is selected, the system will start to record to the NAS
storage device immediately and keep recording always. If the “Schedule
Recording” is selected, the system will do the NAS recording according to the
“scheduling” in section 3.10. “Disable Recording” will disable this NAS recording.
2. When doing the NAS recording, the system will check the free disk space of the
NAS device. If the free disk space is less than the specified number, the system
will do “Circular recording”( overwrite the oldest recorded files of this ip camera in
the NAS device ) or “Stop recording” as selected. If the “keep recorded video for
xx days” is selected, the system will do circular recording and over write the
recorded video files older than xx days ago.
3. The IP camera can connect to the NAS device by using the “NAS name” or “NAS
IP address”. If the NAS device and the IP camera are in the same local area
network, the IP camera can automatically locate and connect to the NAS device
by the “NAS name”. If the NAS device uses a fixed IP address( either in the local
area network or in the public internet), the IP camera can connect to it b y the “NAS
IP address”.
4. The “Shared folder name” is the folder in the NAS device that will record the video
files of the IP camera.
5. The “NAS access account” and “NAS access password” are the username and
password to login into the specified “Shared folder name” of the NAS device.
6. NAS Scan – use this to scan for some specific NAS devices in the same network.
Not all the NAS devices are supported for this scan function.
7. NAS Info – display the NAS storage capacity and available disk space.
8. Configure NAS(web) – click this to connect to the web configuration page of the
NAS device. Need to key in the login username/password of the NAS device.
9. Access NAS files – on the Microsoft Windows platform, click this to access the
29
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
files on the NAS devices.
In the Microsoft Windows environment, you can access to the NAS device by
keying the URL address \\”NAS
name”\”shared folder name” or \\”NAS IP
address”\”shared folder name” in the windows Internet Explorer, and then key in the
“NAS access account” and “NAS access password” to the prompted login window.
The video files are recorded under the subfolder IPCamRecordFiles/Recording/ID-ID,
where ID is the ID of this IP camera. All the recorded files are with the name of
hhmmss.crf format, where hh is the hour, mm is the minute, ss is the second of the
starting time of the recording video. The files are segmented every five minutes. Users
can use the free bundled CamPlay software to play back the video files.

3.10. Scheduling
The IP Camera provides the scheduling function for the motion detection
triggered email/ftp sending and/or the NAS recording with the individual parameters
set in the . “Email/ftp alarm” settings and the “NAS settings” page. Totally 12 schedule
list items are allowed. There is no conflict check for the scheduling, it means that the
scheduling time could be overlapped, and the IP camera will do all the scheduled
events during the overlapped time period. For the scheduling of the Email/ftp sending
and/or NAS recording, the “Schedule” option must enabled in the “Email/ftp alarm”
settings and/or the “NAS settings”.
1. Schedule list – all the scheduling are listed in this area. Each listed item can be
modified or deleted by pressing the “Edit” or “Delete” button.
2. Email/f tp Alarm – for each scheduling, if this is selected and the “Motion triggered”
is enabled, the IP camera will trigger the email/ftp sending in the scheduled time
period when the video motion is detected.
3. NAS Record – for each scheduling, if this is selected, either “Continuous” or
“Motion triggered” could be enabled. For “Continuous”, it means that the IP
camera will do the video recording to the NAS device during the whole scheduled
period. For “Motion triggered”, it means that the IP camera will do the video
recording to the NAS device for 30 seconds during the scheduled period each
time when the video motion is detected.
4. For the scheduling period, can choose between “Every week”, “Every day” or
“Fixed time” :
A. For “Every week”, can choose week days of the week and set the time
duration of each day.
B. For “Every day”, can set the time duration of every day for the scheduling.
C. For “Fixed time”, can set the starting date/time and the end date/time of the
scheduling period.

Appendix C. Performance Information
1. Video Performance Information
The video quality is dependent on the video parameter settings and the network
quality. If you want to have a better video quality, you will usually set higher resolution
and higher frame rate. This is fine when you are viewing the video locally in the same
network. But when you want to see the video remotely through the Internet, you need
to know the Internet speed (bandwidth) connected to your home network. If the
“Internet speed” setting of your IP camera is very large, but your real Internet speed
(bandwidth) is relatively low, the video quality could be very bad. In some worst case,
the video display could be disconnected. In order to have the best video quality, you
better have broadband service from your ISP and set the “Internet speed” of the IP
camera a little lower than the real Internet speed provided by your ISP.
Also need to notice that when multiple users are displaying the videos from the
same IP camera at the same time, the video bandwidth times number of users will be
needed for the Internet speed.
2. WiFi Performance Information
The WiFi performance is dependent on the distance between the IP camera and
the AP (Access Point) / router and dependent on the number of devices connected to
the AP/router. Also need to consider that if there are any barriers like wall or floor
between the IP camera and the AP/router. IF there are some open space between the
IP camera and the AP/router, you also need to know that the performance will be
interfered in rainy day. The antenna gain and it’s direction in the AP/router will also
affect the WiFi performance. In general case, when the IP camera is set to the default
video setting ( 256k bps) and there are no other interferences between the IP camera
and the AP/router, the working straight distance is about 100 meters between IP
camera and the AP/router.
47
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
Appendix D. Trouble shooting
1. What’s going on when the red led light on the IP camera is flashing?
A: When the IP Cam is connected to the Internet and working correctly, the red led
light will be on constantly. If the red led light is flashing, it’s probably because there
is some network connecting problem. Please check the network connection again
and follow the instructions on the user manual to set it up again.
2. When the IP Cam is connected to the network through wireless connection,
the video quality is not good, how could I fix this problem?
A: When the IP Cam is connected using wireless network and the video quality is not
good, it’s probably because the distance of the IP Cam is too far away from the
wireless AP(Access Point) or WiFi router, or there are too many devices
connected to the AP, or maybe because the WiFi antenna is not in the best
position. Please try to figure out which one is the cause of the problem and you
can then fix this problem.
3. Could I adjust the effective focus of the IP Cam?
A: The effective focus of the IP Cam is from 30cm to infinity, so, in almost all
circumstances you can see the video clearly. There is no need to adjust the
effective focus.
4. What’s the viewing angle of the IP Cam?
A: The viewing angle of the IP Cam is about 60 degrees.
5. What’s the longest distance using the IP Cam to see the video?
A: When using the IP Cam to see a long-distance object, whether it’s clear or not
depends on the size of the object. Usually when your eyes can see something
clearly in that distance, the IP Cam can also see that object clearly in about the
same distance.
6. What should I do if the password is forgotten, and the ID/password card is
missing?
A: The easiest way to solve this problem is to reset the IP Cam to the factory default.
Please stick on the reset button on the rear panel of the IP Cam for more than 3
seconds and release it. The IP Cam will then restart to the factory default. The
default administrator account is “admin”, administrator password is empty. The
default video-play password is “ipcam”. You can adjust these account and
passwords by using the browser to login into the IP Cam and do the needed
modifications.
7. What should I do if I can not hear the audio sound from the IP Cam?
A: There is a microphone inside the IP Cam. If you can see the video from the
accompanied CamView software, but can not hear the audio sound, please check
the followings:
(1). Check if the speaker of the computer is turned on, you can try to play an audio
file on the computer to verify this.
(2). Check if the microphone on the IP Cam is enabled. Please login into the web
configuration page of the IP Cam or open the “video settings” from CamView,
select the “video” settings, click the “Enable audio microphone” choice.
8. I can see the video in a remote place, but the video quality is not good and
sometimes the video will disconnect and then the video will reconnect again
by itself.
48
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
A: It’s probably because the internet bandwidth (internet speed) is not big enough.
Please try to apply for a better internet connection from your Internet Service
Provider or decrease the bandwidth settings of the IP Cam. You can adjust the
bandwidth requirement of the IP Cam either from the CamView software or login
into the web configuration page of the IP Cam to do the modification.
9. Does the IP Cam provide the recording function?
A: You can do the recording of the video/audio of the IP Cam from the CamView
software with the CamView software. You can also do the video/audio recording
to the standard NAS storage device. Another software CamPlay is needed to
playback the recorded vide/audio files.
10. The video seems a little dark when the IP Cam is used inside the house, how
could I improve this?
A: You can increase the “Low light sensitivity” in the “video settings” page either
through web configuration or through CamView settings to “High” or “Very high”.
This will tremendously improve the video quality in dark environment. Another
model of our IP Cam products IC212w with IR led inside could help on some of
the very tough environment even in wholly darkness. But please be noticed that
when the IR led is turned on in the dark room, the video will be black and white
only.
11. Can I connect the IP camera directly to my PC/notebook with an Ethernet
cable?
A: If the IP camera is directly connected to your PC/notebook computer using an
Ethernet cable, the IP camera will automatically use an IP address called “auto
IP” with IP address 169.254.xxx.xxx. If your PC/notebook computer is configured
to DHCP, it will also use an “auto IP” address. But this will take about one minute
after the IP camera is connected to the computer and you need to make sure that
the WiFi interface on your PC/notebook computer is disabled. After about one
minute, you can run the CamView software to access the IP camera, the CAM ID
should be displayed on the “auto-search” list. You can then see the video by
double clicking the CAM ID icon. But you need to know that in this situation, other
local or remote computer can not see the video.
49
MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
Appendix E. 3GPP/ISMA operation
3GPP/ISMA is using RTSP protocol for 3G mobile phone to display the video
stream from some network devices, including IP camera. The IP Camera support the
RTSP protocol and video/audio codec needed by 3GPP/ISMA. Users only need to
access the address rtsp://ip_cam_address/CAM_ID.password on the 3G mobile
phone to access the video of the IP camera. No other extra configuration is needed on
the IP camera. Where ip_cam_address is the public IP address of the IP camera.
CAM_ID is the unique Camera ID of the specific IP camera. Password is the video
play password of the specific IP camera(detailed in section 3.6). Different 3G mobile
phone may need different operation to be able to key in the rtsp address, please
contact the 3G mobile phone customer service for more details.
The video quality and resolution is the same value as set on the “video settings”
page. Since the bandwidth provided by the 3G service is under 256k bps, better to
configure the “Internet speed” of the IP camera to 128k or 64k bps.
Notice 1: when the audio microphone is enabled on the IP camera, if the “Internet
speed” in “video settings” page is bigger than 256k or the resolution is 640x480, the
audio will be disabled for 3GPP/ISMA access. In all other cases, the 3G mobile phone
will be able to hear the audio from the IP camera.
Notice 2 : when the audio microphone is enabled on the IP camera, if there is any
3G mobile access to the IP camera( the mobile will hear the audio ), in this same time,
there will be no audio on the CamView playing window for this IP camera.
For more information about operation on different 3G mobile phones, please
contact us for detailed document.
For iPhone users please download software mCamView from App Store.
