Upon installation completion, restart computer. The IP Camera Tool icon will appear on the
desktop automatically.
NOTE: If you use Windows 7 and there is no icon on desktop after installation of the IP Camera Tool,
check the camera software installation path. For example, if the path reads
C:\Windows\System32\IPCamera.exe, then edit the shortcut to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\IPCamera.exe.
CAUTION: Use only the power adapter attached with the product. Using an unauthorized power
adapter may cause damage to your Camera. The IP Camera should be installed indoors only.

1) Screw in WiFi antenna and adjust it so it points straight up
2) Plug network cable into camera and into your router
3) Plug power adapter into the camera and then into the power outlet.
CAUTION: Make sure to only use the power adapter supplied with the camera. Using a
non-approved power adapter may damage the camera.

LED will turn on and the small yellow LAN port LED will flash. Network light will blink and power light

2.0 SOFTWARE OPERATION
2.1 IP Camera Tool
When camera has been installed, open IP Camera Tool program on your computer. It will
automatically begin searching for your camera over the LAN.

There are three possible scenarios:
1) If no camera is found on the LAN: after about one minute of searching, the field will display “IP
Server not found” and automatically shut down IP Camera Tool program. Check if DHCP is enabled on
your router, or disable MAC address filtering if on WiFi. Also, make sure that your firewall (if used) isn’t
blocking access to the camera.
2) If cameras are found on the LAN: all of the cameras will be listed and the total number will be
displayed in the result field (as shown above).
3) If cameras found on the LAN do not share the same subnet with the computer: a prompt will be
displayed. Click right mouse button to choose “Network Configuration.” This will set the IP address of
the camera to the same subnet as the LAN. You can also choose “Obtain IP from DHCP server” or “set a
static IP for the camera.”
NOTE: If you could not find the camera’s IP on the IP Camera Tool, check that DHCP is enabled on your
router, that your MAC address filter is disabled and that a firewall or antivirus software isn’t blocking
the camera.
Setup Options
Right-click the IP camera to display six options: Basic Properties, Network Configuration, Upgrade
Firmware, Refresh Camera List, Flush Arp Buffer and About IP Camera Tool:
•Basic Properties: Find device information such as device ID, the system firmware version and
web UI version
If there are several cameras on the list, then choose Basic Properties to check the device ID and find
that camera’s specific IP address. For example, if device ID is 00606E8C5058, it will have the same MAC
address as found on the sticker on the bottom/back of the camera.
Each camera has its own MAC address. Sometimes, if a camera’s IP address is not found on the IP
Camera Tool, the firewall may be blocking it. In that case, you can either add the MAC address to your
router and give it a fixed IP, or add the MAC address as a trusted site. There are two MAC addresses:

one is a wired MAC, and the other is a WiFi MAC.
•Network Configuration: Configure network parameters
•Obtain IP from DHCP server: If checked, camera will obtain its IP address from your DHCP server
•IP Address: Fill in the assigned IP address. Make sure you are using an address that is on the same
subnet as your PC.
•Subnet Mask: Use the subnet mask that matches your LAN

•Gateway: This is your internet gateway and usually the address of your router
•DNS Servers: Either use the DNS server address assigned by your ISP or one from a third party like
Google (8.8.8.8) or OpenDNS (x.x.x.x)
•HTTP Port: The default port is 80. You can set another port number, such as port 8005, 85, 8100,
etc. for port forwarding.
•User: Default administrator user name is “admin”
•Password: There is no default password
NOTE: If the prompt “Subnet doesn’t match, dbclick to change!” appears, enable DHCP and choose
obtain IP from DHCP server, or set camera’s IP address and gateway once again.
•Upgrade Firmware: for latest firmware updates, visit the Wireless IP Camera product page on
INSTEON.com

INSTEON iOS/Android smartphone and tablet app (requires SmartLinc Hub, sold separately).
