1 Introduction
IP cameras are a new generation of product that combines analog and IP
video technology. IP cameras can compress and encrypt video and audio
signals and then send it to remote terminals through the Internet with its built-in
processor and web server. With an IP address, users can use the standard
Internet Explorer browser to view the cameras in real-time, monitor targets,
manage and store video & audio, as well as control a PTZ camera remotely.
As a new generation of products in security, IP cameras share the same
function as analog cameras, such as auto white balance, auto shutter speed,
AGC, auto backlight compensation, etc. On the other hand, IP cameras also
support remote access through the internet, and they support multi-user
viewing functions. Some IP cameras are even able to extend to both analog
and digital signals.
The core of the IP camera series is the 32Bit RSIC with standard MJPEG
compression format, CMOS image sensors, auto white balance and backlight
balance, Internet Explorer compatibility, smart phone accessibility, and
centralized monitor interface management. In general, these cameras host a
variety of functions that can serve a number of users depending on their usage
requirements and conditions.
2Features
2.1 High-Quality Monitoring Via Network
You can monitor a high-quality live image from the camera using a Web
browser on a computer connected to a Wi-Fi network. The maximum frame
rate is 20 fps. The number of users that can view live videos from one camera
at the same time is limited by the internet connection where the camera is
located. The camera supports MJPEG video compression formats (video
codecs), which makes video footage clearer, smaller, and smoother.
2.2 Remote-Controllable High-speed Pan and Tilt Mechanism

6
The camera is provided with a high-speed (200° rotation/second) pan and tilt
mechanism, which allows –150° to +150° panning and –90° to +30° tilting.
2.3 Wireless LAN & Built-In DDNS
This IP camera is based on the TCP/IP standard and has a built-in Wi-Fi
module. Therefore, the management and maintenance of your device is simple
because all the things you want to do can be accomplished through the
network, such as remote configuration, start-up, and firmware upgrades. You
can use this IP camera to monitor special places such as your home or office
when you are not on location. In addition, the camera can be upgraded
remotely when a new version of firmware is available.
2.4 Image Transmission Using E-mail or FTP
You can send still images from the camera via e-mail or to a FTP server by
setting off a trigger using the built-in motion sensor. You can also send still
images sequentially for a determined period before and after the trigger to a
FTP server, or send them periodically. TLS/STARTTLS SMTP server is
supported. Gmail accounts can be used as the sender.
2.5 Supports WEP/WPA/WPA2 Encryption
All wireless routers on the market comply with these security protocols. This
means that this camera is 100% compatible with your router.
2.6 Multiple Protocols Supported
The camera supports multiple network protocols, including TCP/IP, SMTP e-
mail, HTTP, and other Internet related protocols.
2.7 Preset Positions and Rotation
You can save up to 15 preset positions (pan & tilt positions) of the camera and
up to 11 rotation speed classes.
2.8 Intelligent Object Detection Function
The camera is provided with an intelligent object detection function to watch
images. This function combines “Moving Object Detection” that detects moving
objects in camera images with “Unattended Object Detection” that detects
objects that do not move for a specified period in camera images.

7
2.9 Two-way Audio
The camera is equipped with two-way audio that means you can use the
camera as a speaker and microphone at the same time. Both the speaker and
microphone are built-in; thus, no extra external ones are needed.
2.10 Night Vision
The camera features 10 infrared LEDs, which makes it a sophisticated all-time
guardian. The range of night vision is eight meters.
2.11 Date-Superimpose Function
Date/time can be superimposed on the image. You can also select the color of
the time & date displayed.
2.12 Multiple Applications Supported
Through the remote access technology, you can use the cameras to monitor
various objects and places for your own purposes. For example, pets/babies at
home, patients in the hospital, offices, shops, and warehouses are all ideal
environments for this camera. It can also capture both still images and video
clips so that you can keep the archives and review them at any time.

and the other is the extended line IP camera
.
5.1 Interface
5.1.1 Standard Body IP Camera
Power Jack: DC 5V/2A Power supply
Motion detect alarm output: alarming input, T1 and T2 .Output, T3 and T4
LAN Port: RJ-45/10-100
Audio Output: The jack is designed for external speaker

5.2 Installation
IP cameras have the ability to process images and transmit data via an internet
connection. They offer DDNS functionality for static IP, dynamic IP, and PPPoE
dialing. The IP camera connects to your network using a LAN connection.

11
5.2.1 Hardware Installation
Follow the steps below to set up your camera hardware connections. Make
sure to follow each step carefully to ensure that the camera operates properly.
 Affix the antenna to the back of the camera.
 Plug the network cable into the camera and then into your
Cable/DSL router.
 Plug the power adapter into the camera and then into the power
outlet (surge protector recommended).
 The camera takes approximately 30 seconds to start up before it
displays an IP address on the 'Search Devices' program.
 When the camera is powered on and the network cable is plugged
in correctly, the small green light on the network jack will turn on
and the small yellow light will flash.
CAUTION : Make sure to only use the power adapter supplied with the IP
CAM. Using a non-approved power adapter may damage the camera and void
warranty.
5.2.2 Software Installation

12
Put the small CD into the CD drive of your computer. Open the CD folder to
find the software.
Select and run the “Search Tool” application.
This will open the Installation wizard, which will walk you through the
installation.
Once the Installation window appears, follow the prompts to install the “Search
Device” Program.

13
Once installed, you will need to run the “Search Devices” program now
available on your computer.
Inside the program, you will click the search button, and the software will
search for all IP devices on the local network.

14
5.2.3 Configure Network Parameters
Selecting the IP camera from the list and then clicking “Modify Settings”
will allow you to modify the network settings.
IP Address : This will be the local IP address of the camera, the first three
segments of numbers will generally need to match your PC’s local address, but

15
the last segment will need to be unique within your network (if your computer
uses 192.168.1.7, then you could use 192.168.1.99 for your camera)
Subnet Mask : This will need to match your PC’s subnet mask, generally
255.255.255.0.
Gateway : Ensure that the device's network gateway is the same as your PC's.
Data Port : 80 is generally acceptable, unless your ISP blocks 80, and then you
can generally use 81.
DNS : Set this to match your DNS provider’s IP address
Username : The username set within the camera for administrative access. By
default, the username is “admin.”
Password : The password set within the camera for administrative access, by
default it will be left blank.
5.2.4 IE Login and ActiveX Installation
Prior to accessing your IP camera, you will need to configure the settings on
your computer to allow the installation of the ActiveX controls used to view your
camera.
Go to “Tools” in Internet Explorer and select “Internet Options.”Then, go to the
“Security”tab and select “Custom Level.”

16
Scroll down and find the ActiveX controls labeled as "Download Unsigned
ActiveX Controls" and "Initialize and Script ActiveX Controls Not Marked as
Safe For Scripting" and change both of them to "Prompt"
There are two ways to log in to your IP camera.
•The first way would be to double-click the device's IP address in the list
provided by the “Search Device” program. Internet Explorer will
automatically open and display the device's login screen.
•You can also access the camera directly through Internet Explorer by
manually entering the device’s IP address in the Internet Explorer browser's
address bar.
Once you have arrived at the IP camera’s page, you will be prompted to enter
your username and password. The default username will be “admin,”and the
password will be left blank.

17
At the Zmodo IP Camera home page, you can specify your preferred language
and then specify the type of client you will be using. Once you have selected
the type, you will be taken to the camera interface.
