Operating Instructions

Network Parameters

Preparing the Network Parameters for the Network Camera

Before starting to set up the network parameters of a Network Camera, make note

of corresponding network parameters.

Refer to page 6 in this Getting Started and page 23 in the Operating Instructions

for network parameters.

Network parameters memo for Network Camera

The devices on the network may not be assigned the same IP address. Each

device must have its own IP address. Overlapped IP addresses can cause other

network devices to stop working and may result in widespread network problems.

[Type 1] Ask your network administrator for the network parameters.

[Type 2] Refer to the broadband router’s manual for the network parameters.

[Type 3] Ask your ISP (Internet Service Provider) for the network parameters.

[Type 4] Install the Network Camera in the default condition. Set the PC

"192.168.0.250" (IP address) and "255.255.255.0" (Subnet Mask).

Refer to page 24 in the Operating Instructions.

Network Parameters Table

*1Many ISP's intentionally block the port number 80 to guard against network

viruses. If your ISP blocks the port number 80, substitute it to another unused

port number.

*2When you use more than one Network Camera with a broadband router, each

Network Camera needs its own port number.

*3The Port Forwarding (IP Masquerade) feature needs to be set to the

broadband router. Refer to page 32 in the Operating Instructions.

*4Refer to the broadband router's manual.

When you use a Network Camera in DHCP feature, check [DHCP] and enter

the Host Name if your ISP requires. If you automatically get the address of

Default Gateway and DNS server from DHCP server, you do not need to set up.

Verify that your ISP supports DHCP. If your ISP supports DHCP, or if you assign a

domain name to the Network Camera, you need to contract and register for DDNS

service. If you set a static global IP address to the Network Camera and the

broadband router, you do not need to register for DDNS service. Refer to page 34

in the Operating Instructions

Operating Instructions

Proxy Server Setting

A proxy server may prevent you from connecting directly to a Network Camera in

some corporate environments. The web browser can set up the IP address

communication without using a proxy server. Consult your ISP or network

administrator.

Note

A proxy server is generally used to protect security of a network that offers an

Internet connection. The network of a Network Camera with the proxy server

may cause some problems to the image quality such as taking much time in

refresh interval. Consult your ISP or network administrator for details.

1. Start up the Internet Explorer. (The window comes from Internet Explorer

5.50.)

2. Select [Tools] –> [Internet Options...] –> [Connections] tab and click [LAN

Settings]. See if the Use a proxy server check box is checked or not in the

next window. When checked, click [Advanced...].

When not checked, click [Cancel]. Your proxy settings are causing no

problems.

See if the check

box is checked or not.

When checked, click

[Advanced...].

Operating Instructions

3. Enter an IP address for the Network Camera assigned from your ISP or

network administrator into the Do not use proxy server for addresses

beginning with data field.

4. Click [OK] on all of the opening windows.

Operating Instructions

Simple Installation using the Setup CD-ROM

After finishing cabling, turn on the Network Camera and insert the Setup CD-ROM

in the CD-ROM drive of the PC. Setup CD-ROM should start the application

automatically. This program automatically finds Network Cameras on the network.

1. Turn on the Network Camera.

2. Insert the Setup CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive of the PC.

(If Network Camera Setup window does not appear, click "setup.exe" on the

Setup CD-ROM.)

Operating Instructions

3. Click [Network Configuration]. Network Camera List window appears. The

Setup program finds all Network Cameras connected on your local network. It

lists all of MAC addresses and IP addresses of Network Cameras. Network

Cameras that are isolated by the use of a home gateway or broadband router

will not be detected. Record their MAC addresses on the Network Camera

Memo on page 3 in the Operating Instructions. It is useful for customer

servicing.

Notes

• The setup program finds and identifies Network Cameras by listening for

data, which the Network Cameras send out for the first 20 minutes after

powering up. If the installation is not completed within 20 minutes,

disconnect temporarily the AC adaptor to restart this operation.

• Each Network Camera has a unique MAC address labelled on the bottom.

Refer to page 15 in the Operating Instructions.

• Network Cameras that are isolated by the use of a home gateway or

broadband router will not be detected.
