2. INSTALLATION AND SETTINGS
System Requirement:
Operating System: Windows 2000 / XP / Vista / 7
Network Protocol: TCP/IP
Network Structure: Applies to all network connections 10/100M LAN platform
Browser: Internet Explorer 6.0 or above. Firefox, Google, Safari, or Chrome.
2.1 Network Connection
Intranet and Extranet Connection Reference:
Extranet means public IP (i.e. The Internet), Intranet means private IP. If your IP belongs to the follow range,
then it’s a private IP :
Category A: 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
Category B: 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
Category C: 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
Intranet Connection: The IP camera and your computer (device) should be under the same network
environment, and both of the IPs should be under the same subnet, pictured as below:
Figure 1.0
Extranet Connection: there are 2 ways as below:
(1). IP camera connects to the Internet via a router, here camera’s IP is a private IP, client needs to connect
to the IP camera through a router, with port forwarding to be connected correctly, as below:
Figure 1.1
(2). IP camera connects to the Internet directly, if it’s a fixed IP provided by your ISP, just input it. If it’s a
floating IP, then input the account and password provided by your ISP to dial-up connection.

2.2 Browser Settings (For IE only)
OCX will be downloaded automatically when you login to the IP Camera, but you might have to set the IE
browser to enable the OCX to be downloaded automatically after signing in. Steps as below:
1. Close the firewall of your computer.
2. Change the ActiveX settings, “IE” browser > “Tool” > “Internet Options” > “Security”> “Custom Level” >
“ActiveX control and Plug-ins”, all the ActiveX options set to be “Enable”:
Especially:
Enable: Download unsigned ActiveX controls

Panel” ->“Internet Explorer”, to access Security settings.
NOTE: Make sure that your firewall or anti-virus software doesn’t block the software or ActiveX. If you couldn’t
see live video, please close your firewall or anti-virus software, and try again.
2.3 UPnP Service
UPnP could help you to find your camera’s IP more quickly. For Window XP, from “Control Panel” > “Add or
remove applications” > “Add or remove Windows component” > “Network service” > “Detailed data” >
“UPnP users interface”, the factory default settings is disabled. Enable it, then it can allow your operating
system to support UPnP.
Alternatively, you can also click “Start” menu>“Internet Explorer”, and choose “Internet attributes”, or via
“Control Panel” >“Internet Explorer”, enter to Security settings.
