Hardware Reset
The reset button is used to reset the system or to restore the factory default settings. Sometimes
resetting the system can return the camera to normal operation. If the system problems remain
after reset, restore the factory settings and install again.
Reset: Press and release the reset button with a paper clip or thin object. Wait for the Network
Camera to reboot.
Restore: Press and hold the reset button for at least ten seconds to restore system defaults.
Note that all settings will be restored to factory defaults.
SD/SDHC/SDXC Card Capacity
This network camera is compliant with SD/SDHC/SDXC 32GB, 64GB, and other preceding
standard SD cards.
NOTE:
1. This equipment is only to be connected to PoE networks without routing to outside plants.
2. For PoE input, use only UL listed I.T.E. with PoE output.
Tips:
1. 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.
2. If DHCP is enabled in your network, and the camera cannot be accessed, run the IW2 utility
to search the network. If the camera has been congured with a xed IP that does not comply
with your local network, you may see its default IP 169.254.x.x. If you still cannot find the
camera, you can restore the camera to its factory defaults. The factory default is DHCP client.
3. If you change your network parameters, e.g., added a camera via a connection to a LAN card,
re-start the IW2 utility.

3. An external relay can be triggered by using DO+ or by an external power source, depending
on the type of relay you use.
4. In case of using an individual relay (instead of using a relay module), for protection against
voltage or current spikes, a transient voltage suppression diode must be connected in parallel
with the inductive load.

Network Deployment
Setting up the Network Camera over the Internet
There are several ways to set up the Network Camera over the Internet. The rst way is to set
up the Network Camera behind a router. The second way is to utilize a static IP. The third way is
to use PPPoE.
Internet connection via a router
Before setting up the Network Camera over the Internet, make sure you have a router and follow
the steps below.
1. Connect your Network Camera behind a router, the Internet environment is illustrated below.
Regarding how to obtain your IP address, please refer to Software Installation on page 26 for
details.
LAN (Local Area Network)
RouterIPaddress: 192.168.0.1
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.
■ Secondary HTTP port: 8080
■ RTSP port: 554
■ RTP port for audio: 5558
■ RTCP port for audio: 5559
■ RTP port for video: 5556
■ RTCP port for video: 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
User's Manual - 23
VIVOTEK
Internet. Please refer to Network Type on page 72 for details.
For example, your router and IP settings may look like this:
DeviceIP Address: internal
port
IP Address: External Port (Mapped port on the
router)
Public IP of router122.146.57.120
LAN IP of router192.168.2.1
Camera 1192.168.2.10:80122.146.57.120:8000
Camera 2192.168.2.11:80122.146.57.120:8001
.........
Congure the router, virtual server or rewall, so that the router can forward any data coming
into a precongured 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.
FromForward to
122.146.57.120:8000192.168.2.10:80
122.146.57.120:8001192.168.2.11:80
......
When properly congured, 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 conguration page, please open the ports
accordingly on your router. For example, you can open a management session with your router
to congure access through the router to the camera within your local network. Please consult
your network administrator for router conguration if you have troubles with the conguration.
For more information with network conguration options (such as that of streaming ports),
please refer to Conguration > 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.

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 on page 72 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 73 for details.
General Connection
1. Connect the Network Camera's Ethernet cable (CAT5e) to a 802.3at PoE Plus switch.
2. Connect the power wires to an AC or DC 24V power adaptor (user-supplied).
You can connect both power sources for redundancy in power supply.
