1. PRODUCT FEATURES
1.1 Product Introduction
The LAN CAMERA is a state-of-the-art equipment of technological sophistication in its field. It
combines multiple digital technical capabilities with the internal network functions of the network
video camera. The user can immediately connect with a standard network, and the device can
transmit the digital images to a remote browser. The LAN CAMERA is unlike the Web CAMERA,
which connects the USB port or communication port with a personal computer. Since the various
types of the Web CAMERA must initially be connected and installed with a personal computer,
the Web CAMERA is limited regarding some practical applications. Surveillance by remote
control is a principal function of the LAN CAMERA, and this surveillance can be maintained by
digital network recording and direct Internet seeding. By using the LAN CAMERA you can
increase your surveillance capabilities and help yourself monitor your store, your house, factory,
school, public space, and so forth. You can set up different size frames and image quality
categories in accordance with your requirements. Different settings have different picture
qualities and compression ratios to be regulated according to user needs. Connectible
network-attached storages (NAS) are used as digital-mode storages without the problems of
consolidating and supporting different Networks (Windows 95/98/NT/2000, Macintosh, Novell
and Unix). Digital images are more convenient than analogs for search and delivery functions,
and enable you to access the latest status instantly. The user can moreover use multiple modes
of accessing images, such as schedule, time, and alarm.
The LAN CAMERA is a user-friendly product whose simplified installation and setup procedures
make it easy to apply and handle. Additionally it provides all-weather automation-monitored
control. Installation will automatically start up the LAN CAMERA, which further supports by

4.2 Configure Your LAN CAMERA Network Settings
Upon connecting with the network hardware, you need to activate the network function and
configure the proper network settings of the LAN CAMERA.
4.2.1 Enable DHCP Function
This function can only work if the LAN which the unit is connected to has a DHCP server. If the
DHCP server is working, the LAN CAMERA will obtain an IP address automatically from the
DHCP server. In that case please skip section 4.2.2 (Set IP address) and follow section 4.3
(TCP/IP Communication Software).
4.2.2 Set IP Address
You need to set an IP address for the unit if the unit isn’t connected to a DHCP server. Otherwise,
please follow the instructions given below:
Set the IP, MASK and GATEWAY. The following is a sample setting.
IP: 192.168.1.X
MASK: 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY: 0.0.0.0
NOTE: When only one unit of the LAN CAMERA is connected to a computer or LAN, you
can freely assign an IP address for the LAN CAMERA. For example, there is a
range of LAN CAMERA IP addresses from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.255. You can
pick one for use from the range of the IP. It’s not necessary to set the MASK and
GATEWAY; leave the settings as default.
When a LAN CAMERA is connected to a WAN, you must acquire a unique,
permanent IP address and correctly configure the MASK and GATEWAY settings
according to your network architecture. If you have any questions regarding
those settings, please contact a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
NOTE: When connecting to a network, each connected LAN CAMERA must be assigned
a unique IP, which must be in the same class type as your network address. IP
16

addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example,
192.168.1.1 Therefore, if the connected network is identified as Class C, for
example, the first three sets of numbers of the LAN CAMERA IP address must be
the same as the network address. If the connected network is identified as Class
B, the first two sets of numbers of the LAN CAMERA IP address must be the
same as the network address. If you have any questions regarding these settings,
please contact a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
