Overview

The IB9360 and IB9380 is an outdoor bullet network camera capable of 1920 x 1080 at 30 fps, or 2560 x 1920 resolution at 20 fps. At the 5MP resolution and with the WDR function enabled, the frame rate is slightly reduced to 20fps. The firmware comes with another 4MP resolution mode with a 30fps frame rate. With the most updated VIVOTEK WDR Pro technology, the camera series is capable of capturing the highest quality images in both low light and high contrast environments.
The onboard IR can provide illumination in total darkness. With the Smart IR feature, the
rmware automatically adjust the IR intensity for objects that came too close, in order to
avoid over-exposure.
The camera also offers the best in night time surveillance technology. By adopting Smart IR II technology from VIVOTEK speed domes, the camera’s IR illuminators now align with the remote focus lens’ focus angle to provide the best IR image quality at any lens setting. This feature optimizes IR intensity, reduces IR hotspots, and increases the IR effective range up to 30 meters.

2. In this case, if the Local Area Network (LAN) IP address of your Network Camera is
192.168.0.3, please forward the following ports for the Network Camera on the router.
■ HTTP port: default is 80
■ RTSP port: default is 554
■ RTP port for video: default is 5556
■ RTCP port for video: default is 5557
If you have changed the port numbers on the Network page, please open the ports accordingly on your router. For information on how to forward ports on the router, please refer to your router’s user’s manual.
3. Find out the public IP address of your router provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
Use the public IP and the secondary HTTP port to access the Network Camera from the Internet. Please refer to Network Type on page 78 for details.
Internet connection with static IP
Choose this connection type if you are required to use a static IP for the Network Camera.
Please refer to LAN setting on page 77 for details.
Internet connection via PPPoE (Point-to-Point over Ethernet)
Choose this connection type if you are connected to the Internet via a DSL Line. Please refer to PPPoE on page 78 for details.
User's Manual - 23
For example, your router and IP settings may look like this:
Device IP Address: internal port IP Address: External Port (Mapped
port on the router) Public IP of router 122.146.57.120 LAN IP of router 192.168.2.1 Camera 1 192.168.2.10:80 122.146.57.120:8000 Camera 2 192.168.2.11:80 122.146.57.120:8001
... ... ...
Congure the router, virtual server or rewall, so that the router can forward any data com­ing into a precongured port number to a network camera on the private network, and
allow data from the camera to be transmitted to the outside of the network over the same path.
From Forward to
122.146.57.120:8000 192.168.2.10:80
122.146.57.120:8001 192.168.2.11:80
... ...
When properly congured, you can access a camera behind the router using the HTTP request as follows: http://122.146.57.120:8000
If you change the port numbers on the Network conguration page, please open the ports
accordingly on your router. For example, you can open a management session with your
router to congure access through the router to the camera within your local network. Please consult your network administrator for router conguration if you have troubles with the conguration.
For more information with network conguration options (such as that of streaming ports), please refer to Conguration > Network Settings. VIVOTEK also provides the automatic
port forwarding feature as an NAT traversal function with the precondition that your router must support the UPnP port forwarding feature.

opened.
Tips:
1. The onscreen Java control can malfunction under the following situations: A PC con-
nects to different cameras that are using the same IP address (or the same camera running different rmware versions). Removing your browser cookies will solve this
problem.
2. If you encounter problems with displaying the conguration menus or UI items, try dis-
able the Compatibility View on IE8 or IE9.
You may also press the F12 key to open the developer tools utility, and then change the Browser Mode to the genuine IE8 or IE9 mode.

folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Camera Stream Controller\.
2. If you forget the root (administrator) password for the camera, you can restore the camera
defaults by pressing the reset button for longer than 5 seconds.
3. If DHCP is enabled in your network, and the camera cannot be accessed, run the Shepherd
utility to search the network. If the camera has been congured with xed IP that does not comply with your local network, you may see its default IP 169.254.x.x. If you still cannot nd
the camera, you can restore the camera to its factory defaults.
4. If you change your network parameters, e.g., added a connection to a LAN card, re-start the
Shepherd utility.
