1. SETUP IP CAM

1.1 NETWORK

The IP cam is a plug-and-play device. IP cams connected in LAN are listed on the

Camera Name Window. Make sure you connect the IP cams that you want to

configure in the same LAN as the personal computer with the IP cam loader software

installed in it, so the software can find the IP cams for setup.

The cameras in the Camera Name Window have different colors, and they have

different meanings.

1. Green (Internet mode): This means that this camera can only be accessed by aviewer.

2. Blue (NVR mode): This means that this camera can be accessed by both theviewer and the NVR.

3. Pink (Not registered): This means that the camera has not yet been registered.4. Red (Selected): The camera is currently selected, and can be setup using the

configuration menu.

*What is a Port?

"Port" in this case, refers to a logical communication connection.

Therere multiple hosts behind a single public IP address. The basic idea is to disguise

IP packets to or from your private LAN so they appear to the rest of the Internet as if

they only originate from your gateway machine's external IP address. The Network

Address Translation (NAT) router takes the role of sending a packet from the LAN to ahost on the Internet that creates a return translation entry. Until a host on the LAN

initiates contact, it is invisible to the public Internet.

The default port number can be changed to avoid conflict with other applicatons.

User is recommended to do Port Mapping of users router. It allows user to manually

create a permanent translation entry that maps a protocol port on your gateway

machine to an IP address and protocol port on your private LAN.

**Note that each IPcam on the same LAN should have a unique port number.

Click on the circle to enable the

browser function.

This server is provided by your

dealer, and serves as a DDNS

server.

This is the camera name shown

on the browser for this camera.

The user can adjust the frame rate,

resolution and bandwidth for the

browser. When this button is

pressed, a setup window will

appear.

Press save to update the

configuration on the IPcam

This port number is used by the

connection between the router and

IPcam. If you enable auto port

mapping, this setting will be

redundant. However, if you need to

fix the port number*, you need to set

this up. **

Click on the circle to enable auto

port mapping. This is

recommended for most users.

2.NetworkTo configure your network environment of your IPcam,

(1)You need to determine where you are to locate your IPcam on network and NVR.(2)You need to connect the IPcams and a personal computer installed with the

IPcam loader, on the same LAN, to configure the IPcams. In this way, the software

will find the IPcam and the cameras will be shown on the list.

To determine the network environment of your IPcam, the three network modes in

IPcam will be introduced, and an example of a real network environment will be used

to explain when the three modes is used.

3.IPcam Registration and User Account ManagementTo enable the plug and play function, it is necessary to (1) register the IP cam. After

the registration for each IP cam is done, the next step is to (2) put the cameras into

groups, so that different users shall have the authorization to use certain IP cams by

either NVR or viewer.

3.1 Register the first IP cam

Before you start, make sure you have prepared the environment.

Please install the IP cam loader onto a PC that can connect to the Internet. (Fordetails, please check the installation guide)

Please connect the IP cams that are required to register to the LAN, which thePC is connected to. To connect the IP cams and PC on the same LAN, the

simplest way is to connect the IP cams and PC on a switch or a router which is

also connected to the Internet.

Start the IP cam loader on the PC. The IP cams should be on the camera list, asdiscussed in section 1.

Select a camera by clicking on

the camera name. If the

camera is selected, the

camera name will be in red.

To start registration, firstly, it is necessary to find the device ID** for each camera.

Run the setup utility on your PC. Make sure your PC is connected to the Internet.Click on the name of specific camera to get the video and data of that camera.

The information of this camera, including the device ID, will appear at the left

bottom of the window.

Copy the Device ID by Ctrl+C keys.

** Device ID: Device ID is unique for each ipcam, and can be found from the user

interface of the Setup utility. It can be used for only one registration. User has to

delete previous registration before registering a new account.

Register the rest of the IPcam into the server, and allocate sub-accountAfter the first IPcam is registered into the server, the next step is to (1) register the

rest of the IPcams for this master account, and (2) setup the sub-accounts.

Sub-account is an account which only has authorization to some of all the IPcams

allocated to the master account. In real life, master account is like the boss of the

company, who has the authority to manage the whole company, while a manager is

similar to a sub-account, who has only the authority to manage a division of the

whole company.

To Register the rest of the IPcam into the server, or allocate a sub-account, the user

needs to first enter the management system for this master account.

Enter the management system for this master accountFollow the steps below to enter the management system.

I. In setup, press the button Modify Account. The sign in page for the accountmanagement system will appear.

II. Enter the account management system by typing in the master account andpassword. Note that the master account and password is registered when

applying new account, in the previous step.

What is priority?

There are three priority levels: high, general and low. Since for each IPcam, there can

only be one user controlling, when there are more than one user allocating the same

IPcam, the sub-user with a higher priority will be able to access the IPcam, while the

one with a lower priority will not be able to access. If both users have the same

priority, the user which allocates the IPcam later will gain access.

Add cameras into the sub-user account - Privilege management system

The purpose for privilege management is to add IPcams to certain sub-user.

This means that this sub-user will be able to access this IPcam. To add an IPcam, the

user needs select a sub-user name, a camera name which is registered in the master

account. When this is done, press add to update this information into the system.
