The ZS Series features a "Plug and Play" function with a PoE Switch. The “Plug and Play” functionality requires the IP Camera to be in DHCP mode. The ZS automatically assigns an IP Address to the IP Camera. (192.168.78.11 ~ 254) The ZS models will automatically map the camera on the PoE Port to the corresponding ZS
channel number.
Figure 2.5.2. Incorrect connection with the PoE Ports
With the ZS Models, it is prohibited to connect a router to the POE Ports to connect the IP Camera,
the ZS will not be able to find and connect to the camera. The LAN Port can be connected to a router, but not the PoE Ports.
2-6 . IP Camera SETUP (through SpecoTech Web Viewer)
ZS Series allows remote access to the IP Cameras through "IP Camera Setup" menu in SpecoTech Web Viewer.
Click the mouse right button Select IP Camera Setup. Select Channel Number. It launches the cameras web setup page.
In order for the web pages to launch from the “IP Camera Setup” menu when accessed from the WAN, Ports 59011 to
59254 on the router must be port forwarded to the ZS. The local address of the ZS can be found in the system information.
