1 Cable/DSL Modem Connection (Fig.1)
You can connect the IP-310E to a cable/DSL modem
directly if you have dedicated internet connection.
2 Router/Switch Connection (Fig.2)
If you use a router to share internet connection then
your camera has to be connected to the router which
in turn is connected to the cable/DSL modem.
3 IP Configuration
By default IP-310E will obtain an IP address assigned
by a DHCP-enabled router, and display that IP on the
LCD screen. You can skip directly to Step G.1 to
configure and monitor the camera via its web
manager.
F. Software Installation (iGuard Utility)................................
1. Place the iGuard Utility CD in the CDROM, the
installation program shall start automatically.
2. Install the iGuard Utility and iGuard View
programs according to the instruction on the
computer screen
3. Once installation is completed, click the 'iGuard
Utility' icon to start the program.
4. The iGuard utility will search for any iGuard unit
on the local network and display the DHCP
assigned IP address*. Click on the iGuard IP
camera to launch the iGuard web manager.
* A DHCP server is required. The PC and the camera must be on
the same subnet (behind the same router) for the PC to "see" the
camera..

H. Remote Monitoring (From Internet).......................................
1. If you have a Static Public IP... (Fig.1)
Follow the same procedure in Step G above. All you have to do is
adjusted the TCP/IP property in the network section of iGuard's web
control software to the assigned parameters.
2. If have a Dynamic Public IP and you share your internet
connection through a router...(Fig.2)
This is a typical situation if you have a consumer grade broadband
service. There are three major issues that need to be addressed:
a. DDNS service (to keep track your IP address)
b. Port forwarding (Router Programming)
c. Firewall
If you are not familiar with these network terms, then you will probably
need a network technician to help to setup the iGuard. Please refer to
the user's manual on the utility CD for more information.
