1 Introduction
The network camera supports the network service for a sensor image with progressive scan, which can be
monitored on a real-time screen regardless of distances and locations.
By using its dedicated program, many users are able to have an access to the network camera at once or a
single user can monitor various network cameras at the same time.
It also enables users to play, store and retrieve a monitoring image by using a PC.
All the settings and real-time monitoring screens are also provided through an access to the web.
The network camera is fully featured for security surveillance and remote monitoring needs.
It is based on the DSP compression chip, and makes it available on the network as real-time, full frame rate
Motion JPEG and H.264 video streams.

You can also use a router featuring PoE (Power over Ethernet) to supply power to the camera.
Connecting Alarms
AI(Alarm In): You can use external devices to signal the network camera to react on events. Mechanical or
electrical switches can be wired to the AI (Alarm In) and G (Ground) connectors.
G(Ground): Connect the ground side of the alarm input and/or alarm output to the G (Ground)connector.
AO(Alarm Out): The network camera can activate external devices such as buzzers or lights.
Connect the device to the AO (Alarm Out) and G (Ground) connectors.
Connecting the Power
Connect the power of 12 VDC for the network camera. Connect the positive(+) pole to the „+‟ position and
the negative (-) pole to the „-‟ position for the DC power.
– Be careful not to reverse the polarity when connecting the power cable.
– A router featuring PoE (Power over Ethernet) can also be used to supply power to the camera.
– For the power specifications, refer to the Appendix, Product Specification.
– If PoE and 12 VDC are both applied, the camera will be supplied with power from PoE.
Connecting Audio

2.3 Network Connection and IP assignment
The network camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP address for access. Most
networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected devices. By the
factory default, your camera is set to obtain the IP address automatically via DHCP server. If your network
does not have a DHCP server the network camera will use 192.168.1.100 as the default IP address.
If DHCP is enabled and the product cannot be accessed, run the “Smart Manager” utility on the CD to search
and allocate an IP address to your products, or reset the product to the factory default settings and then
perform the installation again.
1. Connect the network camera to the network and power up.
2. Start SmartManager utility (Start>All Programs>SmartManager>SmartManager); the main window
displays. After a short while any network devices connected to the network will be displayed in the
list.
3. Select the camera on the list and click right button of the mouse. The pop-up menu below displays.
4. Select Assign IP. The Assign IP window displays. Enter the required IP address.
Note: For more information, refer to the SmartManger User‟s Manual.

3 Operation
The network camera can be used with Windows® operating system and browsers. The recommended
browsers are Internet Explorer® , Safari® , Firefox® , Opera® and Google® Chrome® with Windows.
Note: To view streaming video in Microsoft® Internet Explorer, set your browser to allow ActiveX controls.
Note: Some screens may appear different (i.e., color scheme) depending on the firmware version, but the
functionality is the same or similar.
3.1 Access from a Browser
1. Start a browser (i.e., Internet Explorer).
2. Enter the IP address or host name of the network camera in the Location/Address field of the
browser.

5. Click Live View for the network camera‟s Live View page to appear in the browser.
11
3.2 Access from the Internet
Once connected, the network camera is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the network
camera from the Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to the
network camera. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt to automatically configure
the router to allow access to the network camera. This is enabled from Setup > System > Network > NAT.
For more information, refer to section “3.5.6 System>Network>NAT” of this manual.
3.3 Setting the Admin Password Over a Secure Connection
To gain access to the camera, the password for
the default administrator user must be set. This
is done in the “Admin Password” dialog, which
is displayed when the network camera is
accessed for setup the first time. Enter your
admin name and password, set by the
administrator.
Note: The default administrator username is
“ADMIN” and password is “1234”. If the
password is lost, the network camera must be
reset to the factory default settings. See section
“3.8 Resetting to the Factory Default Settings”
for more details.
To prevent network eavesdropping when setting the admin password, it can be done via an encrypted
HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS certificate (see note below).
To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the first dialog shown below. To set
the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, see “3.5.6 System > Security > HTTPS”.
Note: HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt the traffic between web
browsers and servers. The HTTPS certificate controls the encrypted exchange of information.
3.4 Live View Page
