4Connecting to your Network
If your router doesn’t support WPS and you want to connect wirelessly then that’s ok, just connect the camera to your
home network through the Ethernet cable and then configure camera’s Wireless Network settings in the SwannEye HD
Pro software. For additional information, see the SwannEye HD instruction manual.
Wired Network:
Connect the camera’s Ethernet port to any available port on your wireless router
using the supplied Ethernet cable (see opposite). Make sure the computer that you
want to use to configure and/or access the camera is connected to the same router.
Wireless Network:
If your wireless router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can easily create
a WPS connection to the camera. WPS is a way of securely connecting devices to
a wireless network without all that fussing about with IP addresses or security
keycodes. To create a WPS connection:
1. Press and hold the WPS button on the back of the camera until the blue Wi-Fi LED indicator starts
blinking.
2. Press the WPS button on your router. This button is located in different places on different routers -
some might require that you press and hold the button and others might only need a momentary press.
Check your router’s documentation for assistance. The camera will automatically create a wireless
connection to your router and once this connection is established, the Wi-Fi LED indicator will steady.
5Installing SwannEye HD Pro Software
SwannEye HD is also available for Android and iPhone smartphones. Download this app for free from the Apple App
Store or Google Play Store and start watching your camera anywhere, anytime!
SwannEye HD Pro is designed to enable
you to easily access and control your
camera that’s connected on your home
network from your computer.
All you have to do to get started is to
download and install the software from
www.swanneye.com then register for
an account using the ‘Device No:’ and
‘Verification No:’ which are printed on the
sticker on the back of the camera.
After you’ve set up a new account, you will be able to watch live video feeds from your camera,
simultaneously record and playback videos you have just taken while your current recording
continues uninterrupted and also configure various aspects of your camera such as video/
audio settings, wireless network and alarm.

3. Enter the “Device No.” and

account, but additional
cameras can be added
later.
4. Enter a username. Your username can be any combination of letters and numbers. Usernames are case sensitive.
5. Enter a password and confirm in the field below. Like the username, passwords are case sensitive.
6. Enter a valid email address. If you forget your password, this is how we can contact you.
7. When you’re done, click the “Submit” button to close the registration window and to register your account.
