Accessing the Camera Live View
Connect the Equipment
To be able to connect to the camera firmware from your PC, both the camera and the PC have to be
connected to each other via Ethernet cable. At the same time, the camera has to have its own power
supply. In case of PoE cameras, you can use a PoE Injector or a PoE Switch between the camera
and the PC. The cameras that have the DC power connectors may be powered on by using a power
adaptor.
The Ethernet port LED or Power LED of the camera will indicate that the power supply for the camera
works normally.
Configure the IP Addresses
In order to be able to communicate with the camera from your PC, both the camera and the PC have
to be within the same network segment. In most cases, it means that they both should have very
similar IP addresses, where only the last number of the IP address is different from each other. There
are 2 different approaches to IP Address management in Local Area Networks –by DHCP Server or
Manually.
Using DHCP server to assign IP addresses:
If you have connected the computer and the camera into the network that has a DHCP server
running, then you do not need to configure the IP addresses at all –both the camera and the PC
would request a unique IP address from DHCP server automatically. In such case, the camera will
immediately be ready for the access from the PC. The user, however, might not know the IP address
of the camera yet. It is necessary to know the IP address of the camera in other to be able to access
it by using a Web browser.

The quickest way to discover the cameras in the network is to use the simplest network search,
built in the Windows system –just by pressing the “Network”icon, all the cameras of the local area
network will be discovered by Windows thanks to the UPnP function support of our cameras.
In the example below, we successfully found the camera model that we had just connected to the
network.
By double-clicking the mouse button on the camera model it is possible to automatically launch the
default browser of the PC with the IP address of the target camera filled in the address bar of the
browser already.

If you work with our cameras regularly, then there is even a better way to discover the cameras in
the network –by using IP Utility. The IP Utility is a light software tool that can not only discover the
cameras, but also list lots of valuable information, such as IP and MAC addresses, serial numbers,
firmware versions, etc, and allows quick configuration of multiple devices at the same time.
The IP Utility can be downloaded for free from:
http://www.inaxsys.com/en/support/downloads/software-downloads.html
With just one click, you can launch the IP Utility and there will be an instant report as follows:
You can quickly notice the camera model in the list. Click on the IP address to automatically launch
the default browser of the PC with the IP address of the target camera filled in the address bar of the
browser already.

Use the default IP address of a camera:
If there is no DHCP server in the given network, the user may have to assign the IP addresses to
both PC and camera manually to make sure they are in the same network segment.
When the camera is plugged into network and it does not detect any DHCP services, it will
automatically assign itself a default IP:
192.168.0.100
Whereas the default port number would be 80. In order to access that camera, the IP address of the
PC has to be configured to match the network segment of the camera.
Manually adjust the IP address of the PC:
In the following example, based on Windows 7, we will configure the IP address to 192.168.0.99 and
set Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.0 by using the steps below:
1
2

Manually adjust the IP addresses of multiple cameras:
If there are more than 1 camera to be used in the same local area network and there is no DHCP
server to assign unique IP addresses to each of them, all of the cameras would then have the initial
IP address of 192.168.0.100, which is not a proper situation for network devices –all the IP
addresses have to be different from each other. The easiest way to assign cameras the IP addresses
is by using IP Utility:
With the procedure shown above, all the cameras will have unique IP addresses, starting from
192.168.0.101. In case there are 20 cameras selected, the last one of the cameras would have the IP
192.168.0.120.
Later, by pressing the “Refresh”button of the IP Utility, you will be able to see the list of cameras with
their new IP addresses.
Please note that it is also possible to change the IP addresses manually by using the Web browser.
In such case, please plug in only one camera at a time, and change its IP address by using the Web
browser before plugging in the next one. This way, the Web browser will not be confused about two
devices having the same IP address at the same time.
