LS-PTC300 CAMERA MANUAL
Hardware Installation
1) Insert the power cable and the Wi-Fi antenna into their respective ports on the camera. Tighten the
Wi-Fi antenna until it is secure and not loose.
2) Insert one end of the Ethernet cable into the camera’s Ethernet port and insert the other end into an
open port on your router.
Please note: Initial installation requires an Ethernet cable to be used to configure the camera to your
wireless network. After the camera is configured, the Ethernet cable can be removed from the camera to
only use the wireless connection (power cycle required). If the wireless network’s credentials change then
the device will need to be reconfigured using the Ethernet cable.
3) Plug the AC adaptor into a compatible wall outlet for power.
4) The “audio output” port is for external speakers and is optional.
Camera Provisioning –UPnP method
If Universal Plug and Play is enabled on the connected router, the web portal can setup the camera’s
wireless settings as well as the necessary IP information.
Please note: If this method does not work and you receive a message stating “Camera Information
Received, But Cannot Configure Camera”, then proceed to the “Camera Provisioning – Port Forwarding
method”.
1) Navigate to https://connect.devicewebmanager.com and sign in to the administrator account. If no
account has been created, please create one via the “Sign Up” link on the login page.
2) Navigate to the camera tab on the dashboard and select “New Camera”.
3) Complete the name, MAC address (found on the bottom of the camera), model, and property fields.
Once completed, select “Create Camera”.
4) Follow the on screen prompts to complete camera installation and setup.
5) If a message comes up stating “Camera Information Received, But Cannot Configure Camera” then
proceed to the Non-UPnP method below.

Camera Provisioning –Port forwarding method (non-UPnP)
If Universal Plug and Play is disabled or not an option on the connected router, then port forwarding will
need to be setup on the router to allow the camera to connect outside of the local network.
1) Forward the camera’s port in the router. The default port for the camera is 8080. The port number
will be the same for all fields requiring a port. Choose one of the following methods.
Please note: If multiple cameras will be installed on this network, or if the default port interferes
with another device’s port, proceed to method “C” to change the internal port setting on the camera
and then follow method “A” or “B”. Otherwise follow only method “A” or “B”.
A. Port forwarding and maintaining internet connection via Ethernet.
1. Sign into the router’s web setup page.
2. Instructions on how to setup port forwarding for the specific make/model of the
connected router can be found here: http://portforward.com/
3. Proceed to the “Advanced Camera Setup” section.
B. Port forwarding and transferring to Wi-Fi connection.
1. Sign into the camera’s web setup page. The sign in page can be access by entering
the camera’s internal/private IP address followed by a colon and then the port
number. For example 192.168.1.25:8080
2. Select the appropriate browser mode.
i. “Active X Mode” is for Internet Explorer only and requires a certain level of

Network Type, and Encryption are auto-populated once a network is selected and
should not be changed.
6. Enter in the wireless network password in the “Share Key” field and then click
“Submit”.
7. After the camera resets, remove the Ethernet cable and then power cycle the
camera by unplugging the power cable and reinserting.
8. Sign into the router’s web setup page.
9. Instructions on how to setup port forwarding for the specific make/model of the
connected router can be found here: http://portforward.com/
10. Proceed to the “Advanced Camera Setup” section.

C. Changing camera port to not interfere with other device’s forwarded ports.
1. Sign into the camera’s web setup page. The sign in page can be access by entering
the camera’s internal/private IP address followed by a colon and then the port
number. For example 192.168.1.25:8080
i. The default username is “admin” and the default password is “password”.
2. Select the appropriate browser mode.
i. “Active X Mode” is for Internet Explorer only and requires a certain level of
permissions (for advanced users).
ii. “Server Push Mode” is for alternative browsers such as Firefox, Safari, and
