The camera is easy to use and manage using a web browser or the IPViewPro 2.0 software to access the
camera's live video display, and configuration software. Check and make sure the computer can access
and use the camera before placing it in the location where it will be used, especially if it is mounted to a
ceiling or other difficult to access area.
For the initial setup, use the Setup Wizard program located on the CD-ROM included with the camera.
Use the Setup Wizard to assign an IP address and other network settings. Once the camera has an IP
address, follow the instructions below to access the camera's web management interface used to
manage the camera and for video display.
Accessing the Camera Video Display
If the camera is used on a network with an active DHCP server, the camera will detect it and obtain an IP
address. If you are using the camera on a network with a DHCP server it is necessary to first determine
what the IP address of camera is. To do this, follow the instructions in the Quick Installation Guide to
launch the Setup Wizard software utility used with the network camera.
NOTE: If your network uses DHCP or has an active DHCP server running, use the Setup
Wizard utility on the installation CD-ROM shipped with the camera to first access the
camera. Once it is accessed, you can change the IP address or continue to use the DHCP
assigned address as preferred.
If your network does not use a DHCP server, the camera will use a default IP address of 192.168.10.30.
Use this address to access the web-based management software. Use a web browser and type in http://
followed by the default IP address, 192.168.10.30 in the address bar of the browser and press the Enter
key. The URL in the address bar should read: http://192.168.10.30
If the login dialog does not appear, check the proxy server settings on your browser.
NOTE: The wrong proxy server settings on your browser can prevent connection to the web
manager. If you are having trouble connecting to the camera, configure the proxy settings to
bypass the proxy server or disable use of proxy servers and try to connect again
