Connections and Outlook
LAN Socket
The LAN socket is a RJ-45 connector for connections to 10Base-T Ethernet or
100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling. This Ethernet port built N-Way protocol can detect or
negotiate the transmission speed of the network automatically. Please use Category 5
“straight through” cable to connect the Network Camera to a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet
network switch or hub. Note that, in case you need to connect the device to PC or
notebook directly, you should use “cross-over” cable instead.
Audio Output Jack
Audio-out Jack allows this device to output audio or alerting sound.
DC Power Jack
The DC Power Jack is located on the Network Camera’s bottom. The input power is
5VDC. Note that supply the power to the Network Camera with the power adapter
included in package. Otherwise, the improper power adapter may damage the unit and
result in danger.
Factory Default Reset
This button is hidden in the pinhole beside the DC Power Jack. Please refer to the
Appendix A in this manual for more information.

light source for image sensor.
Network Accessing Type LED
This LED is used to indicate the network type of Network Camera. The green LED
means the Network Camera under wired Ethernet mode (LAN) and orange LED means
Camera under wireless mode (WLAN).

4. Connect the external power supply to Camera
Connect the attached power adapter to the DC power jack of the Network Camera. Note:
Use the power adapter, 5VDC, included in the package and connect it to wall outlet for
AC power.
Once you have installed the Network Camera well and powered it on, the network
accessing type LED will turn on. It means the system is booting up successfully.
Furthermore, if you have a proper network connection, and access to the Network
Camera, the LED will flash green under wired mode or orange under wireless mode.

Preparation
Search and Set up by IPWizard
When you installed the Camera on a LAN environment, you have two easy ways to
search your Cameras by IPWizard or UPnP discovery. Here is the way to execute
IPWizard to discover Camera’s IP address and set up related parameter in a Camera.
Search
When click Search button, a searching window will pop up. IPWizard is starting to
search Network Cameras on the LAN. The message “No Network Camera Is Found” will
appear on this window if IPWizard can not find any device on the LAN. Otherwise,
existed devices will be listed as below.

Network Camera User’s Guide
14/84
If IPWizard finds network devices, Wizard button will be available. Please select the
device you want to set-up or connect and click the left button of the mouse on the
Information Box. The words on the Information Box will turn from white to yellow which
means this device is selected. Or you could double click the left button to connect to the
network device. Relative settings will be carried out after you press Installation Wizard.
Details of Installation Wizard will be specified as below.
Wizard
When Wizard button is available, you can proceed to set up relative settings on the

Network Camera User’s Guide

selected device. Further procedures can be carried out when device is available on the
LAN.
After pressing Installation Wizard, please key in authorized username of the device and
password when login dialog box appears on the screen. You can login the setting page if
authorized name and password is approved.
Wizard page 1: Username and Password
This page is about the change of the authorized name and password of the selected
device. If you don’t want to change them for the time being, please click on “Next” to
move to the next page. Press “Exit” button if you don’t want to set up right now. If you
want to change authorized username or password, you have to click on the box.
Authorized username should contain at least 5~20 characters and password should
contain at least 4~8 characters.

Using UPnP of Windows®XP or Vista
UPnP™ is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking architecture that
provides compatibility among networking equipment, software, and peripherals. This
device is an UPnP enabled device. If the operating system, Windows XP or Vista, of
your PC is UPnP enabled, the Network Camera will be very easy to be found.
Please refer to Appendix J to enable UPnP settings only if your operating system of PC
is running Windows XP.
Note: Windows 2000 does not support UPnP feature.
To discover your device, go to your Desktop and click My Network Places.
Click the targeted Device. Then Internet Explorer will connect to this Network Camera
automatically.

Install the Device behind a NAT
Router
Once installed, the device is accessible on your LAN. To access the device from the
Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to the
device. If the device is installed on the LAN with a router, then it may get a dynamic IP
address from the DHCP server. However, if the device wants to be accessed from the
WAN, its IP address needs to be setup as fixed IP, also the port forwarding or Virtual
Server function of router needs to be setup.
However, if your NAT router supports UPnP feature, it can be very easy to achieve NAT
traversal automatically. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt
to automatically configure the router to allow access to the camera.
Installing the device with an UPnP router on your network is an easy 3–step procedure:
(1) Enable UPnP option of your NAT router
(2) Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the Network Camera
(3) Access your Network Camera by DIPS
(1) Enable UPnP option of your NAT router
To use UPnP IGD function (NAT traversal), you need to make sure the UPnP function is
enabled in your router. Most new home routers should support this function. Some of
routers are default enable and others are not. Please check user’s manual of your NAT
router for detail.
(2) Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the Network Camera
Refer to Setting ÎNetwork ÎUPnP page for detail NAT traversal setting.
(3) Access your Network Camera by DIPS
Refer to Setting ÎSystem ÎSystem page for detail DIPS information.

3. According your browser’s security setting, the IE Web Page may prompt the
“Security Warning” window. If so, select “Yes” to install and run the ActiveX control into
your PC. Otherwise, the system will load the ActiveX silently.
4.After the ActiveX control was installed and ran, the first image will be displayed.
Logging in as an User
If you log in the Network Camera as an ordinary User, “Setting” function will be not
accessible.
Logging in as an Administrator
If you log in the Network Camera as the Administrator, you can perform all the settings
provided by the device.
