Network Setup -

Quick Start of Network Connection

Please follow the steps below to complete

the initial setup of the network function.

1. Connect the IP Camera and PC to the conﬁgured network.

2. Open the IP Installer on a PC, then search for the IP camera.

3. If multiple numbers of camera are connected it should be

distinguished by the mac address of the Camera.

4. Click the Camera IP, and connect to the WEB PAGE.

11. Access your IP Camera via the Internet :

If you use a static IP address assigned by your ISP

1) Open Internet Explorer.

2) Type the IP of the IP Camera.

3) If you use a router, type the routers’ static IP and the web port

number of the IP Camera.

If you have a dynamic address provided by your ISP

1) Open Internet Explorer and visit the DDNS website.

2) Register the IP Camera.

3) Reboot the IP Camera.

4) Give the DDNS server 10 minutes to locate your IP Camera’s

IP information.

5) Click the refresh button in the Internet Explore.

6) After your camera is connected, select your camera.

5. Default ID/Password to access IP Camera are both the

word: admin.

6. Familiarize yourself with the Viewer Interface Screen.

7. please install VLC to display live video.

8. The IP setting can be set to ‘STATIC’ at IP Installer or web

viewer followed by Setup -> Network -> Network Settings

9. If the IP Camera is connected to a network which utilizes a

router, you must have Port Forwarding conﬁgured on your

personal router to forward all ports to the IP address you

have assigned the IP Camera.

10. After conﬁguring Port Forwarding on your router

(if necessary), you may access your IP Camera on your local

network by opening Internet Explorer and specifying the IP

address and Web Port that you have assigned to the IP

Camera.

If you have a DHCP server, it will automatically set the Camera IP.

If you do not have a DHCP server, Camera IP is set to 192.168.1.80

after one minute. In this case, PC IP must be changed to the IP to

be able to access the 192.168.1.80.

Please do not power on the IP Camera until instructed.

Temporarily disable any proxy servers conﬁgured in internet

Explorer.

If connecting the IP Camera directly to a modem, power down

and reset the modem. Leave the modem powered down until

conﬁgurations are ﬁnalized with the IP Camera and the IP Camera

has been correctly connected to the modem.

Example: http://192.168.0.200:8888

If you leave your Web Port set to 80, you don’t need to specify

the port in the Address Bar to access to your IP Camera.

Network Setup -

DDNS Registration

If you have DYNAMIC IP service from your

Internet Service Provider (ISP), you can’t tell the

current IP address of the IP Camera.

To solve this problem, you have to register to our

DDNS service.

At ﬁrst, you have to check if you are using

dynamic addressing. If so, register your IP Video

Server on our DDNS website before you

conﬁgure, setup, or install the IP Camera.

Even though your IP is not dynamic, you will get

beneﬁt if you register to DDNS. In this case, just

remember ‘hostname.dyndns.com/gate1’

instead of complicated series of numbers like

http://201.23.4.76:8078.

For more details, contact our Support Center.

To use a public DDNS called ‘dyndns’ or ‘no-ip’, refer to the detail

information on how to use the service.

(Visit the web site : http://www.dyndns.com or

http://www.no-ip.com)

Network Setup -

Guide to Network Environment

Please conﬁgure the IP Camera at the

installation site. You must determine your

network scenario in order to conﬁgure the IP

Camera with the proper TCP/IP settings.

This tutorial will guide you through the

process. Before actually conﬁguring the IP

Camera, determine settings to be applied.

Record those settings to be used to conﬁgure

your IP Camera for reference.

When conﬁguring your IP Camera, treat the

IP Camera as another PC on your network.

You will assign it several addresses and other

TCP/IP properties to match your current

network.

This step-by-step tutorial will teach what IP

addresses and network conﬁgurations

should be assigned based on the network

scenario.

5. The following descriptions are several basic network

scenarios. Determine which scenario describes your network.

If your network does not match one of the scenarios below

and you are unsure how to setup your IP Camera, contact

your network administrator and then call our Support Center.

1. Before you begin, locate any information and settings received

from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). You may need to

refer to these IP addresses at a later time during the

conﬁguration.

Current TCP/IP Settings

IP Address

Subnet Mask

Default Gateway

Primary DNS Server

Secondary DNS Server (Option)

Static Dynamic

2. You must determine whether the IP address is STATIC or

DYNAMIC. At this moment, you are only concerned about the ISP.

Did they provide you with a STATIC or DYNAMIC address? If you

are unsure, contact your ISP.

3. Conﬁgure your IP Camera’s TCP/IP settings for network

connectivity by selecting Setup from the main interface and

selecting TCP/IP located on the left of the Setup screen.

4. If prompted for ID and Password, use ‘admin’ for both entries.

The default web port number is 80. If port 80 is blocked by the

ISP, a value between 1025 ~ 60000 should be used. If TCP port

80 is blocked, consult the ISP.

You cannot control the rectangular gray areas and only the ISP

has access to the devices.

If you were not given any IP addresses or the ISP was responsible

for the setup and installation of your Internet connection, go to

step 2.

If you are not using a router on your network, your ‘Current TCP/IP

Settings’ (from the previous section) and ‘Assigned IP Addresses

from My ISP’ will be exactly the same.

Network Setup -

Setup Case A, B

Conﬁgure your IP Camera’s TCP/IP properties

as follows :

1. Network Type : STATIC (even though you have Dynamic IP from

your ISP, use STATIC on the IP Camera)

2. Internet Address :

A private IP address such as

192.168.0.200 (Example)

3. Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0 (Example)

You must use the same subnet mask as the one you noted under

‘Current TCP/IP Settings’.

4. Default Gateway : 192.168.0.1 (Example)

5. Preferred DNS Server : Use the 1st DNS Server from ‘Assigned IP

Address from My ISP’.

6. DDNS Server : Use the DDNS server.

7. Web Port : 8888

If you did not receive any IP addresses from your ISP, contact

the ISP and acquire the IP address of their DNS server.

You need to assign an IP address to the IP Camera just as you do

with PC.

The IP address you assign must be unique to your network and

match your network as well. For information on how to

choose a unique IP and match your network, read the FAQ.

The IP address you assign must be a private IP. For information

on how to choose a private IP please, read the FAQ.

This IP address must be the IP address of your router.

(private or LAN side)

Use the same Default Gateway you noted under ‘Current TCP/IP

Settings’.

This is the same site you will register later to accommodate

dynamic IP from your ISP.

Do not use the default port 80 as this number must be changed.

You may select any number between 1025 ~ 60000.
