spot. Thus Fish-Eye Camera is very suitable to view a wide area with single camera such as
hallway, store, office, etc.
The H.264-AVC video compression enables to lower bandwidth and storage requirements without
compromising image quality; Motion JPEG is supported for increased flexibility, as well as
multiple independent video streaming.
The hardware based panorama video processing ability can provide user multiple video modes
including source image, double broad view, triple mode view and quad view. , and it is support
Wall, Ceiling, Table, Wall 720P high performances many mounts.
NB670 offers the Keystone Correction function, and it can adjust image to the best display mode
The e-PTZ function, including preset point without moving parts, can replace part of traditional
PTZ camera and thus save lost of traditional mechanical Pan/Tilt maintain cost.
The camera offers optional POE and POE (NB670E) type for installation; the PoE (IEEE802.03af)
feature provides an easy installation through a single Ethernet cable, lessening the installation of
power plugs or extensions. Further functions include two-way audio and micro SD card support for

2. Software Installation
The following software is necessary for the proper display and use of the Fish-eye camera
from the Web site. The software will be taken from the Software Package CD.
IPInstaller
The IP Installer is used to locate and configure network cameras and video servers on the LAN.
This utility is useful for conveniently configuring the network settings of the device, or for
finding a device once the network settings have been modified.
To install the IP Installer, from the Software Package CD UI, select IP installer, then follow the
on screen instructions.
XVID Codec
An H.264 codec is applied for displaying the video stream and playing the recoded AVI files.

3. Network Configuration
IP Installer is a utility that provides an easier, more efficient way to configure the IP address
and network settings of the devices. It even provides a convenient way to set the network
settings for multiple devices simultaneously using the batch setting function. Moreover, IP
Installer can save the network settings for all devices as a backup and restore them when
necessary.
Preparation before IPAssignment
1. Always consult your network administrator before assigning an IP address to your server in
order to avoid using a previously assigned IP address.
2. Ensure the camera is powered on and correctly connected to the network.
3. MAC Address: Each device has a unique Ethernet address (MAC address) shown on the label
of the device as the serial number (S/N) with 12 digits (e.g. 000429-XXXXXX).
4. Although the IP Installer is able to find and configure any device on the LAN except those that
are behind a router, it is a good idea to set the host PC to the same subnet. In order to connect
to the Web-based user interface of the camera, the host PC must be in the same subnet. For
more information about subnets, please consult your network administrator.
Using IP Installer to Assign an IP Address to NB670
1. Once IP Installer has been successfully installed on the PC, double click the IP Installer icon
on the desktop,
2. Click the [Device Search] to search the device in the LAN.
