1. Introduction
The IP Camera is designed for all day video surveillance on your iPhone/iPad
and Android mobiles/pads. The setup is truly 1-2-3 :
1. Connect the camera to the network
2. Download the app YesCam View into your iPhone/iPad or Android
3. View video by the camera ID/password
The push notification is supported, so that you will get the notification from your
iPhone/iPad and Android once there is any events detected through the PIR body
sensor or sound detector on the camera, even when your mobile is on sleep mode.
The SD card recording is supported, and you could playback the recorded video
on your iPhone/iPad and Android. You could also do the SD card recording only when
there is PIR or sound detection to save the SD card storage size. The PIR and sound
detected recording has a 5 seconds pre-recording, so that you will always catch the
critical moment.
The NAS and cloud storage is supported. You can record the video files into any
normal NAS devices or to your Dropbox account. And you can playback those
recorded video files remotely on your mobile devices or computers.
For day & night usage, there are two video sensors/lens on the camera, one for
day and one for night. The day lens and night lens focus are separately tuned for day
light and Infra Red light for best video quality. No ICR, no mechanical problem.
Two-way audio is supported. You can monitor the synchronized video/audio and
talk to or warn the people around the camera from your iPhone/iPad and Android once
you got the push notification. There is a built-in speaker and a speaker jack is
provided so that you could connect any high power speaker to the camera for your
needs.
The WPS(WiFi Protected Setup) is supported. You could set up the WiFi
connection of the camera with the router by clicking the WPS button on the camera
and on the router at the same time. No more complicated WiFi configuration.
An infrared thermometer is provided. You could monitor the temperature of the

environment of the camera.And you could setup the camera to trigger alarm when the
environment temperature is out of a specified range.
The IP camera is ideal for securing small businesses, home offices and
residences. The IP Camera is a perfect replacement of the alarm system and baby
monitor in your house and shop. .
The differences
It’s very easy to see the video of the IP Camera, you only need to key in the
ID/Password of the IP CAM any where in the world, you do not need to remember the
IP address or domain name or DDNS name or port number.And you do not need to
modify the settings(like port mapping, fixed IP, DDNS, virtual server) of the NAT/router
devices, it’s just a plug & play usage.
So, the differences are the followings:
Public IP address needed ? No
Dynamic DNS needed ? No
Port mapping in router? No
Virtual server in router ? No
UPnP support in router ? No
What’s needed ? ID and Password

2. Hardware description and quick installation/usage
The IP CAM is designed to be very easy to install and use. First, let’s see the
major components of the IP CAM products.
2.1. Major hardware components.
The major components on the front panel of the IP CAM products are the
followings :
1. Lens –the lens is inside the camera body and the focus of the lens is fixed, you do
not need to spend time to adjust the focus, the effective focus range is from 30cm
to infinity. There are two lens for day and night usage separately.
2. IR led –there Is an IR led for the night mode usage.
3. PIR –passive infrared sensor for body detection
4. Microphone –for receiving the audio/voice. Effective distance is about 5 meters.
5. Infrared thermometer –for measuring the environment temperature and alarm if
out of some temperature range.
6. Status indication led (red) –this led is to indicate the Internet connection status.
When the Internet connection is connected, the led will be constant red light. If
there is any Internet connection problem, the led will be blinking red light.
7. Ethernet indication led (blue) –this led is to indicate if the Ethernet link is ok and
packet traffic is sending/receiving. When the Ethernet cable is connected, the led
is constant blue light. When there is packet sending/receiving, the led is blinking
blue light.
8. SD card led –for the indication of the SD card activity( recording ).
9. Micro-SD card slot –for inserting the micro SD-Card. (support up to 32G bytes)
10. Internal speaker –there is an internal speaker inside.
11. External speaker jack –for connecting external speaker.
12. WPS button –for the setup of the WiFi connection with WPS function.
13. Light detector –for switching between day time and night time automatically.

Figure 2-1: Major components in the front panel
The major components on the back panel and bottom of the IP CAM products are
the followings:
1. Bracket screw jack –this is the position to screw in the bracket of the IP CAM.
With the bracket, you can put the IP CAM on the desk, on the wall or on the ceiling.
(Bracket not provided)
2. Power jack –this is the place to plug in the power adaptor. The power needed for
this IP CAM is 12V/1.0A, please make sure you are using the correct power
adaptor.
3. Ethernet jack –this is the place to plug in the RJ45 Ethernet cable. When the
Ethernet link is ok, the Ethernet indication led on the front side will be blue light.
4. Reset button –this is the button to reset the IP CAM to default factory settings.
You need to use a small stick like pencil or tooth stick to press the reset button for
more than 3 seconds to enable the reset function. Usually when you forgot the
administrator account, you will probably need to do this reset action to reset to the
default factory settings. Please refer to section 3.19 for more details.

2.2. Quick installation and usage
There are only three things that you need to do to see the video from the IP CAM.
1. Connect the IP CAM to the home/office network.
2. Install the YesCam View/app software on the notebook/PC/mobiles.
3. Key in the ID/password of the IP CAM(from the ID/Password card) on the YesCam
View, and then you can see the video.
First, Connect the IP CAM to the home/office network
Please connect the IP CAM accessaries to the IP CAM body correctly, including the
power adapter and Ethernet cable, as shown in Figure 2-3. And connect the other end
of the Ethernet cable to the home network or office network. Usually, this Ethernet
cable is plugged into a home NAT/router device or an Ethernet switch if in the office,
as shown in Figure 2-4. Since the default settings of the IP CAM use DHCP function
and very often there is a DHCP server on most of the Home/office network, the IP
CAM should be connected to the Internet immediately. The Internet status led is
constant red light to indicate this good connection status. If the led is blinking, please
refer to section 3.3~3.5 to try other network settings.
