Introduction
The TV-IP512WN Wireless Network Camera transmits live real-time high-quality MPEG-4 video
through an Ethernet network useful for remote monitoring applications. The live video can be
viewed remotely and managed through the network from any computer connected to the network.
Features and Benefits
Easy to use - The Camera is a standalone system with built-in CPU, no special hardware or
software is required. The camera supports DirectX 9.0; therefore, the only requirement you need
is the web browser software such as Internet Explorer 6.0 or above. Once you have a valid IP
Address, just connect it and you can view the picture and receive sound from your camera. In
addition, the camera’s stand allows you to adjust the camera for optimal viewing angle.
Motion detection and event triggered digital image or video recording – Use the Motion
Detection to take a snapshot or digital video record of objects that move through a selected area of
the video display.
Night mode and LED area illumination – Night mode is useful for low light situations. The LED
light on the front of the camera can be turned on remotely to illuminate an area immediately in front
of the camera.
Live audio for listen and speaking – The built-in mic is useful for listening for noise or voices in
front of the camera. The sensitivity can be adjusted to pick up faint noise. An audio output
connection allows use of external speakers for two way communication from the operator’s station.
Supports variety of platforms - The camera supports TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail, HTTP
and other Internet related protocols. It can be utilized in a mixed operating system environment,
including Windows 98SE/ME/ 2000/XP/Vista. Moreover, it can be integrated easily into other www/
Intranet applications.
Web configuration - Applying a standard web browser, the administrator can configure and
manage the camera directly from its own web page via the Intranet or Internet. Up to 20 user
accounts are permitted with privilege settings controlled by the administrator.
Remote Utility - The powerful IPView Pro 2.0 application assigns the administrator with a pre-
defined user ID and password, allowing the administrator to modify the 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.
