Connected directly to a Computer
You can also connect the IP Cam directly to a computer. Please note
that in this mode you will not be able to view your IP Cam from
anywhere else apart from the computer you are currently using.
Connect one end of the network cable in to the IP Cam Network
Connection socket, and plug the other end in to a spare network
port on your computer.
Connect the included power adapter to the power port on the
camera and the other end into an electrical socket. Do not turn the
power on at this time.
You must then assign your computer an IP address so it can talk
easily to the camera.
For Windows system:
1. Open the Control Panel and double click on "Network
Connections" then right click on your "Local Area Network"
connection, and click Properties. Be sure to select the Network icon
that corresponds to where you have plugged the IP Cam in to – so
this would not be listed as a Wireless, WiFi or Bluetooth Network.
2. Select "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" then click Properties.
3. Take note of your current TCP/IP Settings and then click on "Use
the following IP settings"
4. In the "IP Address" Field type in the number 192.168.168.20
5. In the "Subnet Mask" type in 255.255.255.0
6. Leave "Default Gateway" setting blank (The camera will
automatically assign itself this IP address when no DHCP server is
present)
7. Leave DNS server settings blank.
8. Click "OK" then "Close" to apply these settings.
9. Turn the power on to the IP Cam.
The Connectivity Status indicator on the front of the camera will
light up.
