1. Product Description
This manual applies to the Network Camera.
The Network Camera supports the network service for an existing analog camera. An
analog image entered can be monitored on a real-time screen regardless of distances and
locations. By using its dedicated program, many users are able to have an access to the
Network Camera at once or a single user can monitor various network cameras at the same
time. It also enables users to play, store and retrieve a monitoring image by using a PC. All
the settings and real-time monitoring screens are also provided through an access to the
web.
The Network Camera is a one-port video Camera including two-way audio, fully featured for
security surveillance and remote monitoring needs. It is based on the DSP compression chip,
and can digitize one analog video source and make it available on the network as real-time,
full frame rate Motion JPEG and H.264 (or MPEG-4) video streams.
The alarm input and alarm output can be used to connect various third party devices, such
as, door sensors and alarm bells.

2. Installation
For the operation of the Network Camera, it is necessary to connect a network cable for
data transmission, power connection from supplied power adapter and connect a general
analog camera. Depending on operation methods, it is possible to connect an alarm cable
or audio cable additionally. For its fixation on different locations, please consult with an
installer.
Network Connection
The Network Camera supports the operation through the network. Therefore, it is
necessary to connect a standard RJ-45 cable to it. Generally a cross-over cable is used for
directly connection to PC, while a direct cable is used for connection to a hub.
IP Assignment
When a camera, Encoder or Decoder is first connected to the network it has no IP address.
So, it is necessary to allocate an IP address to the device with the “Smart Manager” utility
on the CD.
1. Connect the Network Camera / device to the network and power up.
2. Start SmartManager utility ( All Programs> NautilusClient16 > SmartManager), the
main window will be displayed, after a short while any network devices connected to
the network will be displayed in the list.

3. Select the camera on the list and click right button of the mouse. You can see the pop-
up menu as below.
