3.3 Connecting Process
3.3.1 Default IP address
Since this is a network-based camera, an IP address must be assigned. The camera’s default IP address is
obtained automatically through a DHCP server in your network; be sure to enable DHCP in "Network
Settings." If DHCP is not available, the camera will use APIPA (link-local address); IPv4 link-local addresses
are assigned from address block 169.254.0.0/16 (169.254.0.0 through 169.254.255.255).
3.3.2 Connecting from a computer & Viewing Preparation
Connecting from a computer
1. Make sure the camera and your computer are in the same subnet.
2. Check whether the network available between the camera and the computer by executing ping the
default IP address. To do this, simply start a command prompt (Windows: from the “Start Menu”, select
“Program”. Then select “Accessories” and choose “Command Prompt”), and type “Ping” and then type in
your IP address. If the message “Reply from…” appears, it means the connection is available.
3. Start a browser, e.g., Internet Explorer, and enter IP address. A login window as shown below should
pop up. In the window, enter the default user name: ADMIN; it is required to change the password when
you login for the first time for added security, which requires at least 8 characters including 1 uppercase
letter, 1 special character, alphanumeric characters to log in.
Further administration on the unit can be found in “User Manual".
