Surveillance Application

2 Network Connection
Connect IP-Cam via LAN or WAN. Here only take IE browser for example. The details
are as follows:
2.1 LAN
In LAN, there are twoways to access IP-Cam: 1.access through IP-Tool; 2. directly
access through IEbrowser.
2.1.1 Access through IP-Tool
Network connection:
①Make sure the PC and IP-Cam are connected to the LAN and the IP-Tool is
installed in the PC from the CD.
②Double click the IP-Tool icon on the desktop to run this software as shown below:
③Modify the IP address. The default IP address of this camera is 192.168.226.201.
Click the information of the camera listed in the above table to show the network
information on the right hand. Modify the IP address and gateway of the camera
and make sure its network address is in the same local network segment as the
computer’s. Please modify the IP address of your device according to the practical

situation.
For example, the IP address of your computer is 192.168.1.4. So, the IP address of the
camera shall be changed to 192.168.1.X. After modification, please enter the
password of the administrator and click the “Modify” button to modify the setting.

④Double click the IP address and then the system will pop up the IE browser to
connect IP-CAM. Follow directions to download, install and run the Active X control.

the same as the default settings of the IP camera. Open the network and share
center. Click “Local Area Connection” to pop up the following window.

Select “Properties” and then select internet protocol according to the actual
situation (for example: IPv4). Next, click the “Properties” button to set the network
of the PC.
