Direct connection: Connect the camera and computer directly via Ethernet cable.

IP connection mode: Connect the camera to a Router or Switcher. The user can log in to access the

device using browser.

prevent video quality loss caused by unstable signal transmission.

Properties” on computer, select the “Internet

protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4)” as shown in the

picture on the left.

• Double click or click the property of

Internet protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) to enter the

window.

Advanced TCP/IP Setting. Add IP and subnet mask

in the IP browser as shown in the picture below. Click “Confirm” to finish the adding IP segment.
