network settings on the configuration page, including the correct subnet mask and IP

address of gateway and DNS. Ask your network administrator or Internet service

provider for the detail information. By default the Network Camera requires the

Administrator to run installation every time it reboots. If the network settings are to

remain unchanged, disable the Install option. Refer to “Network settings” on the

System Configuration page for details. If any setting is entered incorrectly and cannot

proceed to setting up the Network Camera, restore the factory settings following the

steps in the “Troubleshooting” chapter of the Appendix.

Add Password to prevent Unauthorized Access

The default Administrator’s password is blank and the Network Camera initially will not

ask for any password. The Administrator should immediately implement a new

password as a matter of prudent security practice. Once the Administrator’s

password is saved, the Network Camera will ask for the user’s name and password

before each access. The Administrator can set up a maximum of twenty (20) user

accounts. Each user can access the Network Camera except to perform system

configuration. Some critical functions are exclusive for the Administrator, such as

system configuration, user administration, and software upgrades. The user name for

the Administrator is permanently assigned as “root”. Once the password is changed,

the browser will display an authentication window to ask for the new password. Once

the password is set, there is no provision to recover the Administrator’s

password. The only option is to restore to the original factory default

settings.

How to Use

A PC with Windows operating system can use the Internet Explorer to connect to the

Network Camera. A plug-in will be installed into the IE when it is connected for the first

time. A PC with Linux operating system can connect to the camera using a browser like

Firefox. It needs to install QuickTime first to view streaming.
