2.2 Product Description
An IP camera is a digital surveillance camera combined with a Web server and capable of independent operation,
giving the user access to real-time monitoring through a web browser or client software from any place across the
world.
These IP cameras are based on the latest technologies, an integrated media processing platform for audio/video
acquisition, compression and network transmission on a single board and are fully compliant with H.264/H.265
Main and High-Profile encoding standards. Any remote user can have access to real-time monitoring by entering
the IP address or domain name of the IP camera in a web browser and providing credentials to authenticate their
access.
The device supports several users with different authorization levels for added security.
IP cameras allow mobile access and can send e-mails and snapshots taken in case of an emergency and store
the image or video snapshot in an SD card for retrieval. (SD Card slot available on selected models)
Smart analytics are built into the device for a variety of powerful on-the-edge alarm events and powerful
functions, such as Line crossing, face detection and more.
2.3 Operation Environment for Remote Access
Operating system: Windows 7/Windows 8/Windows 2008/Windows 10
CPU: Intel Core Duo II dual-core processor or higher
Memory: 1G or more Video memory: 256M or more
Display: 1280 × 1024 or higher resolution to support HD camera resolutions
IE: IE 9.0 or higher version; the camera can also connect to an NVR for full configuration.

Device Connection
IP cameras are connected in one of two ways:
3.1 Connection to PC
Connect the IP camera to the PC via a straight-through network cable, with the power input connected to a
DC 12V adaptor and set the IP addresses of the PC and IP camera to one network segment. The IP camera
will communicate with PC within one minute after being powered on if the network operates normally.
3.2 Connection through router/switch
The more commonly used configuration connects the IP cameras to local area networks and the Internet,
where the camera and PC are connected to the LAN ports of a router/switch, with the gateway in the camera
set to the IP address of the router.

Device Operation Instructions
4.1 Check Connection
1. The default factory IP address for the IP camera in the absence of DHCP services is 192.168.1.88, and
the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. Allocate to your computer an IP address in the same network
segment as the IP camera, for example, 192.168.1.69, and the same subnet mask as that of the IP camera.
Test, whether the IP camera is correctly connected and running normally by clicking on Start,> Run and enter
"cmd" and pressing ENTER; then enter "ping 192.168.1.88" in the command line window to check whether
the IP camera is accessible. A reply from the IP address of the camera indicates that the IP camera network
is appropriately connected and is operating normally. If the PING command fails, check IP address and
gateway setting of the PC and connectivity of the LAN.
If DHCP is used, to find out the camera’s IP address see the process below.

4.3 Searching Devices
Tips: IPC Device Search may be used to detect devices across network segments. Before running the IPC
Device Search click on the local connection icon at the lower right corner of the desktop;
1. Add IP addresses of any reachable network segments the TCP/IP settings for local connection (as shown
below). By running the searching tool, you can search any device with IP address in the same network segment.
If your PC is connected to a physical LAN that carries traffic from several logical LANs not otherwise on your
primary subnet, including IP addresses for those other subnets so they will also be searched.
Note:
IPC Device Search uses multicast protocol for device searching across segments, but any firewall forbids
traffic of multicast data packets, so any firewall must be disabled so that network the information on
equipment can be acquired.
Online device searching procedure
1. Run IPC Device Search by double-clicking the icon . It will search and display any online IPC and
their IP address, port number, device type, and version, subnet mask, gateway, MAC address, and
connection P2P details.

2. Upgrade: you can choose one or more IP cameras to upgrade. Please choose the IP camera you want to
upgrade using the left tick box. Use the “Open” icon to select the firmware file, enter the username and
password for the IPC, then press the “Upgrade” button in the right corner to update.
3. Config: Double-click on the line to select a camera in the search page, which switches to the Config page
with the IP information filled in.

Manually enter the details for device and Login. You can then select from Reboot, User, Default options.
4. Import/Export: Will allow a device configuration to be saved as a backup.
Additionally, you can deploy a configuration file to multiple device(s) which are of the same model and firmware
version. The software will not only allow multiple devices to be selected unless are matching the same details.
Use the tick box and password details for the selected device:
1. Export will save a .txt file to select user location.
2. Import will allow selection of saving the .txt backup to be sent to the device.
After an Import the device will reset.
