INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Internet Camera, a camera device
that can be connected directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet
network. Compared to the conventional PC Camera, the Internet
Camera features a built-in CPU and web-based solutions that can
provide a cost-effective solution to transmit real-time high-quality
video images and sounds for monitoring. The Internet Camera
can be managed remotely, accessed and controlled from any
PC/Notebook over the Intranet or Internet via a web browser.
The simple installation procedures and web-based interface allow
you to integrate it into your network easily. With comprehensive
applications supported, the Internet Camera is your best solution
for remote monitor, high quality, and high performance video
images.

Features and Benefits
Simple to Use
The Internet Camera is a stand alone system with built-in CPU
requiring no special hardware or software such as PC frame
grabber cards. The Internet Camera supports both ActiveX mode
(for Internet Explorer users) and Java mode (for Internet Explorer
and Netscape Navigator users). Therefore, all that is required is a
web browser software such as Internet Explorer 5.0 or above or
Netscape 6.0 or above. Just plug and view the picture from your
Internet Camera with a valid IP Address.
Support Variety of Platforms
The Internet Camera supports TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail,
HTTP and other Internet related protocols, and can be utilized in
a mixed operating system environment such as Windows, Unix,
and Mac. It can be integrated easily into other www/Intranet
applications.
Web Configuration
Applying a standard web browser, the administrator can configure
and manage the Internet Camera directly from its own web page
via the Intranet or Internet. Up to 64 users name and password
are permitted with privilege setting controlled by the
administrator.

6
Remote Utility
The powerful IPView SE application assigns the administrator
with a pre-defined user ID and password, allowing the
administrator to modify the Internet Camera settings from the
remote site via Intranet or Internet. When new firmware is
available, you can also upgrade remotely over the network for
added convenience. Users are also allowed to monitor the image,
and take snapshots.
Broad Range of Applications
With today’s high-speed Internet services, the Internet Camera
can provide the ideal solution for live video images over the
Intranet and Internet for remote monitoring. The Internet Camera
allows remote access from a web browser for live image viewing
and allows administrator to manage and control the Internet
Camera anywhere and any time in the world. Apply the Internet
Camera to monitor various objects and places such as homes,
offices, banks, hospitals, child-care centers, amusement parks and
other varieties of industrial and public monitoring. The Internet
Camera can also be used for intruder detection; in addition, it can
capture still images for archiving and many more applications.

SECURITY
To ensure the highest security and prevent unauthorized usage of
the Internet Camera the Administrator has the exclusive privilege
to access the System Administration for settings and control
requirements to allow users the level of entry and authorize the
privileges for all users. The Internet Camera supports multi-level
password protection and access to the Internet Camera is strictly
restricted to define the user who has a “User Name” and “User
Password” that is assigned by the Administrator.
The administrator can release a public user name and password so
when remote users access the Internet Camera they will have the
right to view the image transmitted by the Internet Camera.
NOTE: Since the default settings are Null String, it is highly
recommended to set the "Admin ID" and "Admin Password"
when you are the first time to use the Internet Camera. Once
the ID and Password are defined, only the administrator has
the access to management the Internet Camera. This
procedure should be done as soon as possible since the
security features with the Internet Camera will not be enabled
until the "Admin ID" and "Admin Password" is defined.

APPLICATION OF
THE CAMERA

quality video images and sounds for monitoring purposes. It can
be managed remotely, accessed and controlled from any PC
desktop over the Intranet or Internet via a web browser. With the
easy installation procedure, real-time live images will be
available. In addition, once the Internet Camera is installed
coupled with the IPView SE application, you can further expand
the scope of the Internet Camera.
The following section will provide the typical applications for the
Internet Camera along with the IPView SE application, and also
includes some basic knowledge to assist in the installation and
configuration of the Internet Camera.
