Use only the power adapter supplied with the iCanView220/220W. Use of
third party power supplies will void the factor warranty.
Some Cities, States, Provinces, Local and Federal Governments have laws
regulating the use of surveillance equipment. Make sure to understand
all local laws.
This Camera Uses Microsoft ActiveX
Do this first!
Before attempting to connect and view video from the iCanView220/220W,
install i-NVR on the PC. Greatly simplifying the ActiveX installation process, iNVR will
automatically install the ActiveX component needed for a direct connection with IE
Explorer! For more detailed information on using “i-NVR” see the i-NVR User Guide.
iCanView220 series network cameras are designed for indoor use only.
When using iCanView220 outdoors, or in an environment that exceeds
specifications, use an additional outdoor rated, water-resistant housing.
The iCanview 220 is not a vandal resistant product, thus use care to avoid
physical damage. With safety in mind, keep out of children’s reach.
Disassembly, or modifications void the factory warranty.

1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
The iCanView220/220W is a state-of-the-art network camera which transmits synchronized video
and audio data in real time at D1 resolution and at full frame rates. Depending on which model
you purchased the iCanView220/220W is offered with either a standard Ethernet interface (220), or
an embedded WiFi transciever(220W).
Using MPEG4 CODEC technology, the 220/220W delivers high quality video via highly compressed
data streams. Using TCP/IP based connections from remote locations, the iCanView220/220W
may be monitored and/or controlled via the internet, or intranet. Unlike analog CCTV equipment,
or DVRs, the iCanView220/220W is easy to install. Often one can often take advantage of existing
network infrastructure saving valuable installation labor and equipment costs. Based on iCanTek’s
Embedded Software Solution (Embedded Web Server, Embedded Streaming Server & Network
Protocol), the iCanView 220/220W delivers unprecedented performance and stability. Weather
your application is basic, or scaling to the enterprise, iCanTek Network Video Recording Applications
(iNVR & NVRPRO) offer highly reliable methods of managing your security video.
