and wireless network connection. Users need to choose the corresponding connection
method according to their own situation.

based on line circuit technology, IP devices are connected to each other through the
network to exchange data packets and data based on the device's IP address.
To enable the device, the network configuration must first be properly configured. To
configure the network, users need to find the device function menu button [Menu] >>
[Advanced Settings] >> [Network] >> [Network Settings].
The default password for entering advanced settings is "123".
