192.168.10.117. Connecting the computer requires setting the IPv4 settings of the
Ethernet port to a static IP address in the same “Class C.” We suggest applying
192.168.10.110 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. There is no need to set a
gateway as this is a direct connection from the computer to the cameras with
no router.
Be sure the static IP address is set by doing the following:
1. Click on Windows icon.
2. Click on Settings.
3. Click on Network and Internet.
4. Click on Ethernet.
5. Click on Change Adapter Settings.
6. Right click on Ethernet and choose properties.
7.
8. The IP address should read 192.168.10.110. If it does not, click in the box and
fill in the correct number.
9. The Subnet Mask should read 255.255.255.0. If it does not, click in the box

Do not use corrosive chemicals on the optical glass components. Dust,
grease, and fingerprints will produce harmful substances and lead to a decline
in performance, or cause scratches. If dirt is found, please use the following
methods:
1. Use a blown balloon or a soft brush to clean the lens surface to avoid dust
particles scratching the anti-reflection film on lens surface during the
wiping process.
2. Use a soft cotton or microfiber cloth or lens wiping paper and dip in distilled
water. Gently wipe the lens surface from the middle to the edge, paying
attention to not crack the lens, or use too much liquid. If the lens is still not
clean, replace the cloth and repeat the wiping process.
Do not use corrosive cleaning solutions on the optical glass components. It is
recommended to disinfect the camera surface regularly with a non-corrosive
sanitizing product. Follow the directions provided by the manufacturer of the
cleaning solution. Adhere to the sanitation protocols and cleaning schedule set
forth by the employer.
It is recommended to have the device(s) re-calibrated annually. Contact
customer service to schedule maintenance.
When the equipment is not in use, the device should be placed in a dust-free
and moisture-free environment with a stable temperature and humidity.
