Click “Exit” at bottom right to shut the device.
APPENDIX 2. –IP camera UPnP How To ® The most troublesome issue when you setup a LANCam is that you have no idea what the IP ® address of this device is. Now LANCam supports the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol ® which makes it easier for you to examine it; however, it is a pity that Microsoft Windows XP doesn’t start this service by default. Therefore, the following procedures will help you to turn it on ® and discover your LANCam step by step as shown in Figure1 below.
Figure 2 Step 2: When Control Panel appears, double-click the Network Connections icon. The Network Connections dialog box appears. See Figure 3. Figure 3 Step 3: Click the Protocols tab in the Network Connections dialog box. See Figure 4. Figure 4 Step 4: When the Local Area Connection Properties dialog box shows up, choose Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties. See Figure 5.
Figure 5 Step 5: In the Internet Protocol(TCP/IP) Properties dialog box, choose Use the following IP Address to indicate that you do not wish to use DHCP, and assign IP Address 192.168.1.200 with Subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Click OK when you finish it. See Figure 6. Figure 6 Step 6: Choose Close to finish the modification. See Figure 7.
2. Install UPnP Packets ® As described before, Microsoft Windows XP doesn’t start the UPnP service by default; however, we have to install some packets before we initialize it. The following steps will help you to install them. Step1: From the Start menu, point to Set Program Access and Default, and then click it. See Figure 8 Figure 8 Step 2: When the Add or Remove Programs dialog box appears, click the Add/Remove Windows Components button. See Figure 9.
Figure 10 Step 4: Check UPnP User Interface, and choose OK. See Figure 11. Figure 11 Step 5: When the original Network Component Wizard dialog box returns, click Next. See Figure12.
Step 6: After about one minute the UPnP installation will be done, and choose Finish to close it. See Figure13. Figure 13 3. Turn on Services After installation, we should turn on the relative services to start the UPnP protocol. The following procedures will teach you how to do it. Step 1: From the Start menu, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. See Figure14. Figure 14 Step 2: When Control Panel appears, double-click the Administrative Tools icon.
Figure15 Step 3: Click the Services icon in the Administrative Tools dialog box. See Figure16. Figure16 Step 4: When the Services dialog box shows up, double click the SSDP Discovery Service icon. See Figure17.
Figure17 Step 5: Choose Automatic in the Startup type, and click OK to start it. See Figure18. Figure18 Step 6: When the Services dialog box appears again, double click the Universal Plug and Play Device Host icon. See Figure19.
Figure19 Step 7: Choose Automatic in the Startup type, press the Start button, and click OK to start it. See Figure20. Figure20 Step 8: Restart your system.
® 4. Scan LANCams through My Network Place After your installation and starting services, the UPnP protocol will take effect. You can scan all ® LANCams in My Network Place like Figure21 and Figure22 below. Figure21 Figure22 Just double click the UPnP MPEG4 IP camera the video live stream will pop up automatically ® without assigning any IP address in Microsoft Internet Explorer .
APPENDIX 3. –The ARP function Setting the IP Address The Ethernet interface on the LANCam has a default IP address (192.168.1.168) that most likely needs to be changed to make it work on your local network. You need to acquire a unique IP address (ask your network administrator). For the initial setting of the IP address the LANCam needs to be connected to the same network segment as your client, and the IP address can then be configured by using a combination of ARP and ping command.
ARP and ping from UNIX or GNU/Linux: 1. Start a shell 2. Type the following as superuser (root): arp -s [or arp -s < MAC address>] ping Example: arp -s 192.168.1.100 00-0C-0C-00-00-01 ping 192.168.1.100 The device responds to the ping in the examples above if the new address was configured. Note, this method will set the IP address permanently. Note: The default account and password after the reset are admin and 9999.
APPENDIX 4. –Register as a DDNS member The DDNS（dynamic domain name system） is a function which is provided by an American company. Please refer to www.dyndns.com. This chapter provides the user with the basic instructions on how to register a free DDNS service. Registering for a DDNS Enter the URL www.dyndns.com. In the upper right-hand corner of the main page, where there is an item, ”Create Account”, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 2 Figure 3 Click “My Services” to enter the service page. Please click the “Add Host Service” item which is below the ”My Hosts“ item, as shown in Figure 4. Click “Add Host Service”, and its service items will appear. The Add Dynamic DNS Host item helps to add a new DDNS. Each member may have only one free account, and one free account can have only five DDNS. Click Add Dynamic DNS Host to enter the DDNS setting page as shown in Figure 5.
Figure 4 Figure 5 All we have to set in this page is the “Hostname” item. The user can choose a Sub Hostname as s/he likes from the right-hand side of the Hostname’s drop-down list. NOTE: You don’t have to set the “IP Address” in the same format as the camera’s IP Address. It will renew the IP Address automatically. After finishing the setting, please press the “Create Host” button as shown in Figure 5.

APPENDIX 6. –FAQ 1. How to disable the DHCP function and use a static IP instead? A：Turn up the “DIP SWITCH” from “3” to “4” and change the relative network settings, the IP Address, NetMask and Gateway on the image web page. 2. Can the SD card be removed during recording? A：No, it cannot be removed until the recording comes to a single point. The POWER LED flashing light signals the SD card is operating. The green light indicates the unit is activating. The red light warns the SD card cannot be removed.
