2.0 Installation 2.1Pre-requisites and Initial Connection 1. Mini indoor models, Indoor models, Mini bullets outdoor , bullets outdoor , 3G bullets outdoor models, 3G indoor models, mini spy cameras ,3G spy Camera, DVS. 2. Windows PC or Mac OS or Linux computer with internet browser Computer is only required for initial setup, later the camera can work by itself without any computer present at the camera location 3.
On the box indoor ranges you may want to remove the clear plastic film that is protecting the lens cover. For clearest video be careful not to touch the lens. On indoor models the power light will come on within a few seconds. Later you should also see it blinking red occasionally. This means your camera is ready to use. To get started, you need to know the IP address that your router assigned to the camera. By adding http:// in front of the IP address you get a web link to the camera’s built‐in web server.
If you are familiar with your router’s menus you can log in to your router and see the IP address for the IP network camera in one of your router’s LAN status screens. By the way, in this document we’re using the words “router” and “gateway” interchangeably. 2.2.1 Camera Setup Software Installation for PC For PC users, we supply a program on the CD called Camera Live for PC with Windows7, Windows 8, XP or Vista. This will install utility called Camera Live software on your computer.

Please Note: To get a best multiview viewing , the Maximum number of camera is 16 . However, there is no limit of adding camera to this window .
2.3 Mac Quickstart This Quickstart section applies to the most common configuration for Mac users: You have an Apple Airport (Extreme or Time Capsule), and your Airport is directly connected to a standard, non‐routing DSL or cable modem. In this section you will be interacting mostly with the Airport Utility.
4. Click on the + (add) button below this box and enter a description for your camera such as “Network camera”, and select “Reserve address by Mac Address”. Enter the MAC address shown on the back of your camera. Be careful about typos. There are numbers from 0‐9 and letters in the range of A‐F only. There is no letter O, just number 0 and letter D . Then select a ip address which is in the Airport DHCP range.
2.3.1 Apple Airport Remote Access Setup In order to access the camera remotely from outside your network, you have to tell your Airport to allow access to the network ports used by the camera.This is called “port setting” and is done with Airport utility as follows: In the Airport Utility version 6.3.1, go to manual setup and select the “Network” icon. 1. Click on the + (add) button below the “port setting”. 2.
2.4 Camera Homepage Regardless of the method you used to find your camera’s IP address, Once you have used the Camera Live Software to find your camera and opened your selected camera or entered the IP address manually into your browser” (with http:// in front) , you will be greeted with the Homepage for your camera (which should look something like the below screenshot depending on your model): [Enter] Lets you view live video transmitted by the camera.
2.5 Live View (using Internet Explorer) When using the camera for the first time on a PC with Internet Explorer, your PC will ask you for permission to install the viewing software (called ActiveX). This ActiveX is needed to decode the H.264 or MPEG4 video stream and control the camera. Click to “OK” this at the top of your screen, then again click on “OK” on the install menu that will pop up in the middle of your screen. If you have a popup blocker like Google Toolbar you will need to disable it.
1)Mute: Click the Mute button to silence the audio stream from the camera. 1) Volume: Slide the slide block horizontally to adjust volume. 1) napshot: Press the Snapshot button to capture a still image of the camera view, these will automatically be saved to the My Documents/ Pictures folder. 2) Video Clip: Press the video record button to enable video recording to your local computer. Once finished press the button again to stop recording. The video clip will be saved by default to the Videos directory.
2.6 Live View (using Firefox, Safari) Upon verification of the username and password, the camera image will begin to load. Adobe Flash Player or QuickTime or your media program may ask you to re‐enter your login username and password at this point. This is common on most systems. Please note: You need to have QuickTime Pro Installed on your system to record videos directly from the web browser if you are using a program other than Internet Explorer.
3.0 Wi-Fi Wireless Most likely your wireless network was set up with a password (also known as wireless key). If you don’t remember it, you can check your router’s wireless setup menu or ask the person who set up your wireless network. Without your password you cannot proceed with your camera’s wireless setup, so you can either continue to use your camera in wired mode or set up a new password in your router.
Click the Search button for the camera to scan for available Wi‐Fi networks to connect to. You may see a whole list of networks in your neighborhood. A new screen will display all the wireless networks found. Select the desired network, and click Apply. The camera will automatically choose the best options for connecting to the network. You then need to enter your Wi‐Fi password.
Please remember that both WPA and WPA2 keys are case sensitive and need to be between 8 and 63 characters. When you have entered the key, click on “Apply”, you’ll get a message about “Wireless setup accepted successfully”, but that only means that the information was stored in the camera. Now you should use the “Test” feature to check if you typed it correctly. If the test reports “Success!” you can remove the network cable and it should work wireless after a short delay.
3.1 Wi-Fi Troubleshooting If the camera does not connect and you’ve already checked the settings mentioned on the previous page, please log in to your router and double check the setting for wireless channel selection. On an Apple airport you would use the Airport Utility. If the “Search” function of the wireless setup page found your Wi‐Fi network it means that the wireless networking hardware is working. If it then doesn’t connect it means that there is a password or IP address related issue.
Some routers like Apple Airport series do not show clearly which one of these settings is being used, so if you have difficulty you should try all 4 possible combinations. On a laptop you typically do not need to specify the exact password type since the laptop will try everything automatically. The camera is picky, it needs to know exactly what type of password you are using and does not try anything other than the exact type that you entered. Remember to “Apply” first, then “Test”.
4.0 Remote Access Setup 4.1 Is the Remote Access Setup already done? If your computer had automatically discovered the camera earlier, this is good news because it means that the “Universal Plug and Play” feature is available on your network and most of the setup may already be done. Your camera would be visible from the internet to anyone who knows the exact IP address and usernames and passwords that you choose.
4.2 UPNP SETUP---Enabling UPnP for Automatic Remote Access Setup Usually it is very simple to enable UPnP. You just need to log in to your router’s setup screen and find the UPnP menu. Then you click on enable, save the setting and restart both the router and the camera (in that order). The camera comes from the factory with the UPnP enabled. You can double check by selecting the UPnP Setup tab under the camera’s Network menu: [UPnP] Enable or disable the UPnP function.
4.3 Overview of Manual IP address setup (without UPnP) In the previous section we showed how to tell if your camera was able to automatically configure itself using your router’s UPnP feature. If UPnP worked, please skip ahead to 4.4.1 DDNS SETUP Step 1‐‐‐Choosing a Name for your Camera on the Internet In this section we provide an overview of the manual IP address setup procedure. You would only need to do this if UPnP is not available on your network, for example if you have an older router.
4.3.1 TCP/IP SETUP --Manual Setup Step 1: Assigning a permanent IP address for your camera on your local network (Without UPnP) On your home network (LAN) all your computers, printers and other network connected devices have an IP address. In every IP address there are 4 groups of digits that can each vary from 1 to 255. For your home network the first 3 numbers are already determined by your router’s address, which is typically something like 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 or 10.0.
[Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP)] [Use the following IP address] Select this option when a fixed IP is required. [IP address] Type the IP address of your camera (Required). [Subnet mask] Type the subnet mask (Required). [Default gateway] Type the default gateway (Required). [Primary DNS IP address] Type the IP address of the primary DNS server, if necessary (Optional). [Secondary DNS IP address] Type the IP address of the secondary DNS server, if necessary (Optional).
4.3.2 Manual Setup step 2: Configuring your router to allow access to your camera from the Internet (Without UPnP) If you are not using UPNP or UPNP is disabled on your router, you will need to open a port on your router so that you can access your camera from the internet. If you are unsure if UPNP is working on your camera, visit your camera Settings System page. Under UPNP port forwarding it will be labeled as “Success”, “Failed” or “Disabled”.
4.4 DDNS SETUP 4.4.1 DDNS SETUP Step 1---Choosing a Name for your Camera on the Internet With typical residential internet service your router’s IP address can change from time to time. Looking up the current IP address can be inconvenient, and buying a static IP address is an unnecessary monthly expense. www.dtdns.com and www.dyndns.com are the recommended companies for “Dynamic DNS” service. Also known as DDNS, this is a totally free service that allows your own name to be assigned to your camera.
fee. Now proceed to the next section to make sure your name is updated correctly. 4.4.2 DDNS SETUP 2--Automatic Updating of your Camera’s Internet IP address In the previous step we set up a name for your camera. To make sure that this hostname always corresponds to the correct IP address for your camera we have to make sure it is updated automatically when there is a change. Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is simply a way of using a static hostname to connect to a dynamic IP address.
If it says “Updating” or Unavailable” you should double check your account settings. No‐IP.com uses your complete email address as user name, and the password required in this menu is the one you created during No‐IP account setup. If successful the camera will show you the complete external URL for your reference. The external address using DDNS is made up of two parts – your DDNS account address and the port you opened via UPnP or manually. For example: DDNS Host name account: http://yourname.dtdns.

A reboot is normally necessary when you insert a microSD card into the camera and after formatting the microSD card with the camera’s format tool. 5.8 TASK 5.8.
The camera refers to motion detection as an “alarm”. You can select what you want the camera to do once the motion is detected. In general, motion detection works by comparing the current video frame with the averages of the previous video frames. Any difference is considered to be motion, and the sensitivity adjustment can be used to make the camera more aware or less aware of small amounts of motion.
visit http://www.pcpitstop.com/testax.asp To reduce the chance of false alarms you would increase the threshold (move threshold slider to right) or decrease sensitivity (move sensitivity slider to left) . 5.8.2 Motion Detection using other browsers(Firefox, Chrome, Safari) [Window] Check this box to enable the window. [Threshold] Determines at what point the alarm is triggered. A lower threshold means less motion is needed to trigger the alarm.
By default, the schedule is set to be “active” at all times “always”. However you can set the schedule not to trigger alarms at certain times (useful for instance if you don’t want alarms to go off while your office is open from 9am until 5.30pm). You can set up to 4 schedules, and you can use these to send alarms to different places – such as emails, FTP or SD card. Schedule Setup Options [Schedule ID] Select the ID, you can save up to 4 schedules and use them for different purposes. [No.

Check Schedule setup to select the right schedule ID for your task. [Task] Task function. Click on the task to login the task setting screen below. Click Apply to confirm your setting 1.
2. Snapshot Duration‐‐ The number of seconds that the camera should keep sending emails with attached image after motion stops. 3. Snapshot Frame Rate‐‐ The number of frames per seconds that the camera should keep sending images at when an alarm is triggered. If “Snapshot duration” had a value of 4 and “snapshot frame rate” had a value of 2, you would be getting 2 images each second for 4 seconds in a row, meaning 8 pictures total for each motion detection event. 4.
Period Interval‐‐ Time interval between snapshots. It allows you to designate a time (in seconds or minutes or hours) during which new emails are suppressed. For example, if you want to avoid a flood of emails, you could set this time to 60 minutes so that you wouldn’t get any new emails for 1 hour. Some email server settings to use your camera with popular email providers: gmail.com SMTP server name: smtp.gmail.com SMTP server port: 465 Secure SSL: Yes Authentication: Yes Username: YourUserName@gmail.
If you prefer, you can have the pictures uploaded to an FTP server instead of an email address. There are many choices for FTP servers. For example, you could enable the built‐in FTP server function on one of your computers or download free FTP server software such as FileZilla server. Another possibility is to use an online account with FTP access, which is sometimes even available for free with a limited amount of storage.
“Authentication” should be set to “Yes”. [FTP server port] The port number of the FTP server (default is 21). [Remote path] Input the file directory. It is an optional setting to specify a folder on the FTP server. If you decide to use this feature, you have to make sure that the folder exists on the FTP server with the exact same spelling.

5.9.7 Resetting the Camera back to Factory Settings Note: Do not turn off the power during the Restore function since this might corrupt the camera’s firmware. If you ever forget your admin password or have any other reason to reset the camera to its factory settings, please use the following procedure: 1. Make sure the camera is powered up 2. For indoor cameras insert the tip of a paper clip in the hole at the side of the camera to press the reset switch. You’ll feel the click when the switch engages.
While we don’t recommend this, it is still possible to configure the camera without an initial wired connection using the following procedure: 1. Temporarily rename your Wi‐Fi network name (SSID) to: wirelessnc, and turn off all wireless security, i.e. no passwords and no MAC filtering. It is important to have the SSID all lower case and without extra spaces. Then connect to this Wi‐Fi network with your laptop. 2.
For the next camera, you call the first application Cam2HTTP and use public TCP port 8151 while still using “map to host” port 80. The second application would be Cam2RTP with UDP ports 30002‐30003 and map‐to‐host port 30002. Appendix C: Manually entering TCP/IP Settings for a Camera In most cases, this is not required as the router will assign the correct settings to the camera.
1. Enter a unique name for the camera, the location (optional) and leave the default port number as 80. “Obtain an IP address automatically” and “Obtain DNS server address automatically” are selected by default, if you are confident enough to enter your own settings, you can do so by selecting “Use the following IP address” and follow the guidelines on the next page. 2. To obtain the IP addresses specific to your network, click “Start” then “Run” and type “cmd” in the text box and click “Ok”.
Appendix D: Enabling Active X in Internet Explorer Your browser must have Active X enabled to view the camera in Internet Explorer. To activate this, do the following: 1) Open a new Internet Explorer window. 2) From the menu bar, select Tools, and then select Internet options… 3) From the Internet Options window, select the Security tab. 4) Click on the Custom Level… button. 5) Scroll down to the section labelled ActiveX controls and plug‐ins.
unresponsive. If the firmware update failed, and your cameras BIOS loader has become corrupted, your cameras LED will be flashing green when turned on. There is a procedure you can try yourself, however it is quite advanced, so should only be attempted by those with a solid understanding of TCP/IP and running commands from the DOS command prompt. Procedure: 1. Download the correct new firmware for your camera from our technical support and save this to your hard disk. 2.
Do not turn the power on at this time. You must then assign your computer an IP address so it can talk easily to the camera. On a PC: 1. Open the Control Panel and double click on “Network Connections” then right click on your “Local Area Network” connection, and click Properties. Be sure to select the Network icon that corresponds to where you have plugged the camera in to – so this would not be listed as a Wireless, Wi‐Fi or Bluetooth Network. 2. Select “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)” then click Properties.
