Configuration
The Internet Camera contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect and configure it using your Web Browser.
Preparation
Before attempting to connect the Internet Camera, please ensure that:
• The Internet Camera must be installed and powered ON.
• If the Internet Camera’s default IP Address (192.168.0.20) is already used by
another device, the other device must be turned OFF until the Internet Camera
is allocated a new IP Ad-dress during configuration.
• Your PC can establish a physical connection to the Internet Camera. The PC
and the Internet Camera must be directly connected (using the LAN port on
the Internet Camera) or on the same LAN segment. That is, the PC must be
configured to an IP address and subnet mask in 192.168.0.x segment. For
example: IP: 192.168.0.2, subnet mask: 255.255.255.0.
Connecting to the Internet Camera
To establish a connection from your PC to the Internet Camera:
1. Installing the Internet Camera in your LAN.

2. Start WEB browser on one of the PCs in the same LAN segment.
3. In the Address box, enter “http://” and the IP Address of the Internet Cam-
era, as in this example, which uses the Internet Camera’s default IP Address:
http://192.168.0.20
If you have difficulties on entering the web interface by the default IP address, press Internet Camera’s reset button continuously for three
Note:
seconds or till power LED begins to light up. Then the camera will reset to factory default. No password and username are required in default setting. It is strongly suggested that change the password and username for security purpose.

Access to Internet Camera is done through assigning a proper IP
Note:
address. Please make sure to use a vacant IP address when you assign the IP address for Internet Camera. This will prevent errors from occur­ring if the IP address is overlapped.

Manually Assign / Static IP Address
Directly enter the IP address according to local network environment.
The default settings are as follows:
• Default IP – 192.168.0.20
• Subnet Mask – 255.255.255.0
• Default Gateway – 0.0.0.0
Assign Automatically Using
If your network is using DHCP server you can click on “DHCP”. Under this setting Internet Camera will automatically assign an IP address from DHCP server. Each time Internet Camera starts up make sure the DHCP server is setup well to be able to assign a static IP to your Internet Camera. If your application requires direct connection from an ADSL modem then you need to have an ISP Click on “PPPoE” option and enter the User ID and Password into the respective fields. Internet Camera will get an IP address from the ISP each time Internet Camera boots.
PPPoE account.
DNS IP Address:
DNS (Domain Name System) server is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Enter at least one DNS IP address.
Dynamic DNS:
Before using this feature, you have to register an account, password, and DDNS domain name from a DDNS service provider. Then select one DDNS provider from the pull-down menu and fill in information in corresponding fields.
Wireless Interface: (ICA-110W only)
Connection Mode:
Use the Connection Mode to determine the type of wireless communication for ICA­110W. There are two choices of
Infrastructure mode, and Adhoc mode.
ESSID (Extended Service Set ID):
This field is used to setup which wireless network to be connected for ICA-110W communication. The ESSID is a unique identifier shared among all clients in a wireless network environment. The default Network Name is blank space (NULL String), this default setting will let ICA-110W connect to ANY access point under the infrastructure network mode. To connect ICA-110W to a specific access point on the network make sure to set the ESSID of ICA-110W to correspond with the access point’s ESSID for communication. Type any string up to 32 characters long (spaces, symbols, and punctuation are not allowed) in the Network Name box.
To connect ICA-110W to an Ad-hoc wireless workgroup, make sure to set the same wireless channel and ESSID to match with the PC/Notebook’s setting for direct wireless communication under the Ad-hoc wireless workgroup.

Wireless Channel:
The pull down menu provides the wireless channel for commu-nication. A “channel” is a range of frequencies to be used in communication between ICA-110W and Access Point in infra-structure mode or ICA-110W and PC/Notebook in Ad-hoc mode. Select the appropriate channel from the list provided depending on the regulatory region that the unit is sold.
WEP Encryption:
The default setting for the Encryption Key is Disable. Therefore, to secure the wireless transmission, be sure to enable this option.
WEP Key:
