Hardware Installation

Upon powering up, the device runs through a self-test procedure and the front LEDs will blink
between green and red for a few times. If self-test passes, the LEDs will shut off and the Network
Camera will be on stand-by and ready for software installation. If self-test fails the red LED will
blink several times. Refer to Appendix A for troubleshooting.
The Network Camera will first detect Ethernet. If it does not connect to Ethernet, the Network
Camera will try WLAN. During the searching and connecting process to the wireless access point
or station, the red LED of the Network Camera will flash every second. Until the Network Camera
is connected to the other wireless device, the red LED will become lighted. Operating in either
network mode, the green LED will flash every second as heartbeat to indicate alive.
To install in Ethernet
Make sure the Ethernet is firmly connected to a switch hub. After attaching the Ethernet cable plug
in the power adapter. If the LED turns out to be steady green after self-test, go to next paragraph
"Software Installation". If the Ethernet is not available, the Network Camera will switch to wireless
LAN mode.
To install in wireless LAN
If the Ethernet is not available while power on, the Network Camera will search for any access
point with the SSID "default". Once any access point is found, the LED will turn green to wait for
installation. If the network environment cannot meet the default settings, install Network Camera
Please verify that your product package contains all
the accessories listed in the foregoing Package
Contents. Depending on the user's application, an
Ethernet cable may be needed. The Ethernet cable
should meet the specs of UTP Category 5 and not
exceed 100 meters in length.
Connect the power adapter jack to the Network
Camera before plugging in to the power socket. This
will reduce the risk of accidental electric shock.
