1 Introduction
The network camera supports the network service for a sensor image with progressive scan,
which can be monitored on a real-time screen regardless of distances and locations. By
using its dedicated program, many users are able to have an access to the network camera
at once or a single user can monitor various network cameras at the same time. It also
enables users to play, store and retrieve a monitoring image by using a PC. All the settings
and real-time monitoring screens are also provided through an access to the web.
The network camera is fully featured for security surveillance and remote monitoring needs.
It is based on the DSP compression chip, and makes it available on the network as real-
time, full frame rate Motion JPEG and H.264 video streams.

2.3 Connections
•Connecting the Network
Connect a standard RJ-45 cable to the network port of the camera. Generally a crossover cable
is used for directly connecting to a PC, while a direct cable is used for connection to a hub.
•Connecting Audio
Connect audio output line and audio input line.
•Connecting Alarms
–AL_IN (Alarm Input)
You can use external devices to signal the camera to react on events. Mechanical or electrical
switches can be wired to the A1 (Alarm Input 1) and G (Ground) connectors.
–GND (Ground)
NOTE: All the connectors marked G or GND are common.
Connect the ground side of the alarm input and/or alarm output to the G (Ground) connector.
–AL_OUT (Alarm Output)
The camera can activate external devices such as buzzers or lights. Connect the device to the
AO (Alarm Output) and G (Ground) connectors.
•Connecting the Power
Connect power of 12VDC for the camera.
When using a 12VDC adapter, connect the positive (+) pole to the ‘+’ position and the negative
(-) pole to the ‘-’ position.
Use satisfy clause 2.5 of IEC60950-1/UL60950-1 or Certified/Listed Class 2 power source only.
–Be careful not to reverse the polarity when you connect the power cable.

2.4. Network Connection & IP assignment
The camera supports operation through the network. When a camera is first connected to the network,
it is necessary to allocate an IP address to the device with the SmartManager utility on the CD.
(Default IP 192.168.0.129)
1) Connect the network camera/device to the network and power up.
2) Start SmartManager utility (Start > All programs > SmartManager > SmartManager).
The main window will display, and after a short while any network devices connected to the network
will be displayed in the list.
3) Select the camera on the list and click right mouse button. You can see the pop-up menu as below.
4) Select Assign IP Address. The Assign IP window will display. Enter the required IP address.
NOTE: For more information, refer to the SmartManager User’s Manual.

3 Operation
The network camera can be used with Windows operating system and browsers. The recommended
browsers are Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome with Windows.
NOTE: To view streaming video in Microsoft Internet Explorer, set your browser to allow ActiveX
controls.
3.1 Access from a browser
1. Start a browser (Internet Explorer).
2. Enter the IP address or host name of the network camera in the Location/Address field of your
browser.
3. You can see a starting page. Click Live View, Playback, or Setup to enter web page.
4. The network cameras Live View page appears in your browser.

10
3.2 Access from the internet
Once connected, the network camera is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the network
camera from the Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to
the network camera. To do this, enable the NAT traversal feature, which will attempt to automatically
configure the router to allow access to the network camera. This is enabled from Setup > System >
Network > NAT. For more information, please see “System > Network > NAT” of User’s Manual.
3.3 Setting the admin password over a secure connection
To gain access to the product, the password for the default administrator user must be set. This is done
in the Admin Password dialog, which is displayed when the network camera is accessed for setup at
the first time. Enter your admin name and password, set by the administrator.
NOTE: The default administrator user name and password is admin. If the password is lost, the network
camera must be reset to the factory default settings. Please see Resetting to the factory default
settings.
To prevent network eavesdropping when setting the admin password, this can be done via an
encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS certificate (see NOTE below). To set the
password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the first dialog shown below. To set the
password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, please see “System > Security > HTTPS” of User’s
Manual.
NOTE: HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt the traffic between
web browsers and servers. The HTTPS certificate controls the encrypted exchange of
information.

System Requirement for Web Browser
•Operating System: Microsoft Windows OS Series
•CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz or higher, 1GB RAM or more, 10GB free disk or higher
•VGA: AGP, Video RAM 32MB or higher (1024x768, 24bpp or higher)
General Performance Considerations
When setting up your system, it is important to consider how various settings and situations will affect
performance. Some factors affect the amount of bandwidth (the bit rate) required, others can affect the
frame rate, and some affect both. If the load on the CPU reaches its maximum, this will also affect the
frame rate.
The following factors are among the most important to consider:
•High image resolutions and/or lower compression levels (or high bitrates) result in larger images.
Frame rate and Bandwidth affected.
• Accessing both Motion JPEG and H.264 video streams simultaneously. Frame rate and bandwidth
affected.
•Heavy network utilization due to poor infrastructure. Frame rate and Bandwidth affected.
•Heavy network utilization via wireless router due to poor infrastructure. Frame rate and bandwidth
affected.
•Viewing on poorly performing client PCs lowers perceived performance. Frame rate affected.
