INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the MPEG-4 (Wireless) Pan/Tilt Internet Camera, a standalone system that can be connected directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet, and also supported by the wireless transmission based on the IEEE 802.11g standard*. With support for latest MPEG-4 technology, you can record streaming video that utilizes high quality MPEG-4 images to your hard drive, enable motion detection and setup automated email alerts for security. The built-in microphone provides you with the audio function, allowing you to “watch” and “listen” from the camera. Compared to the conventional PC Camera, the camera features a built-in CPU and web-based solutions that can provide a cost-effective solution to transmit the real-time high-quality video images and sounds synchronously for monitoring.

The camera can be managed remotely, so that you can use a web browser to access and control it from any notebook/desktop PC over the Intranet or Internet. The simple installation procedures and web-based interface allow you to integrate it into your network easily. With comprehensive applications supported, the Internet camera is your best solution for remote monitor, high quality, and high performance video images.

* For wireless model.

Features and Benefits

Simple to Use

The MPEG-4 (Wireless) Pan/Tilt Internet Camera is a standalone system with built-in CPU, no special hardware (such as a PC frame capture card) or software required. The camera supports DirectX 9.0; therefore, the only requirement you need is the web browser software such as Internet Explorer 5.0 or above. Once you have a valid IP Address, just connect it and you can view the picture and receive sound from your camera. In addition, the camera’s stand allows you to adjust the camera for optimal viewing angle. You can tilt the camera right or left (up to 170/ 170 degrees), forward or backward (up to 45/90 degrees).

Support Variety of Platforms

The camera supports TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail, HTTP and other Internet related protocols. It can be utilized in a mixed operating system environment, including Windows 98SE/ME/ 2000/XP. Moreover, it can be integrated easily into other www/ Intranet applications.

Web Configuration

Applying a standard web browser, the administrator can configure and manage the camera directly from its own web page via the Intranet or Internet. Up to 64 users name and password are permitted with privilege setting controlled by the administrator.

Remote Utility

The powerful IPView Pro application assigns the administrator with a pre-defined user ID and password, allowing the administrator to modify the camera settings from the remote site via Intranet or Internet. When new firmware is available, you can also upgrade remotely over the network for added convenience. Users are also allowed to monitor the image, and take snapshots.

Broad Range of Applications

With today’s high-speed Internet services, the camera can provide the ideal solution for live video images over the Intranet or Internet for remote monitoring. The camera allows remote access from a web browser for live image viewing, and allows the administrator to manage and control the camera anywhere and anytime in the world. Apply the camera to monitor various objects and places such as homes, offices, banks, hospitals, childcare centers, amusement parks and other varieties of industrial and public monitoring. The camera can also be used for intruder detection; in addition, it can capture still images for archiving and many more applications.

Physical Description

This section describes the externally visible features of the camera.

Front Panel

There are two LED indicators on the front panel of the camera: Power LED and Link LED.

1. Power LED

The Power LED is positioned on the right side of the two LEDs. A steady light confirms that the camera is powered on.

2. Link LED

The Link LED is positioned on the left side of the two LEDs. A steady light confirms that the camera has good connection to LAN connectivity.

Dependent on the data traffic, the LED will begin to flash to indicate that the camera is receiving/sending data from/to the network.

3. Internal MIC

The built-in omni-directional microphone allows the camera to receive sound and voice.

Rear Panel

4 Antenna

1 DC Power Connector 3 Network Cable Connector

1. DC Power Connector

The DC power input connector is located on the camera’s rear panel, and is labeled DC5V 2.5A with a single jack socket to supply power to the camera. Power will be generated when the power supply is connected to a wall outlet.

2 Reset Button

2. Reset Button

Factory Reset will be initiated when the reset button is pressed continuously for three seconds; meanwhile, the Link LED lights up or blinks. Release the reset button and the Link LED will turn off, indicating that the camera restores the factory default settings.

When factory reset is completed, the configuration of camera will return to the defaults as:

- IP address: 192.168.1.2

- Administrator’s login name: admin

- Password: admin

- Wireless status (for wireless model): disabled

3. Network Cable Connector

The camera’s rear panel features an RJ-45 connector for connections to 10Base-T Ethernet cabling or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling (which should be Category 5 twisted-pair cable). The port supports the N-Way protocol and “AutoMDIX” function, allowing the camera to automatically detect or negotiate the transmission speed of the network.

4. Antenna (for wireless model)

The rotatable external antenna allows you to adjust its position to obtain the maximum signal.

HARDWARE

INSTALLATION

Attaching the Metal Clip

Wall screw

Ear

To attach the metal clip, remove the two rubber pads under the base of the camera firstly. Place the metal clip onto the camera base, and align the two holes of metal clip with two screw holes on the camera base. Then, secure the metal clip with two screws (provided in the package). There are two ears on each side of the metal clip, allowing the camera to be mounted on the ceiling or wall using two wall screws (provided in the package).

Connecting the Ethernet cable

Connect an Ethernet cable to the network cable connector located on the camera’s rear panel, and then attach it to the network.

Attaching the Power Supply

Attach the external power supply to the DC power input connector located on camera’s rear panel, and then connect it to your local power supply.

TIP: You can confirm power source is supplied from the Power LED on the camera is illuminated.

SECURITY

To ensure the highest security and prevent unauthorized usage of the camera the Administrator has the exclusive privilege to access the System Administration for settings and control requirements to allow users the level of entry and authorize the privileges for all users. The camera supports multi-level password protection and access to the camera is strictly restricted to defined the user who has a “User Name” and “User Password” that is assigned by the Administrator.

The administrator can release a public user name and password so when remote users access the camera they will have the right to view the image transmitted by the camera.

NOTE: The default settings of Administrator’s login name/password are admin/admin, which are easily to be known by unauthorized users. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to change the login name and password when you are the first time to use the camera.

APPLICATION OF

THE CAMERA

The camera can be applied in wide variety of applications. With the built-in CPU, it can work as a standalone system that provides a web-based solution transmitting high quality video images and sounds for monitoring purposes. It can be managed remotely, accessed and controlled from any PC desktop over the Intranet or Internet via a web browser. With the easy installation procedure, real-time live images will be available.

The following section will provide the typical applications for the camera, and also includes some basic knowledge to assist in the installation and configuration of the camera.
