SECTION 2: INSTALLATION AND SETUP Check the list of IP devices found by IPAdmin Tool. You can identify your camera by the MAC address. If the camera was not found, click the Refresh button every minute until your camera appears in the list. In the IPAdmin Tool device list, use the camera’s MAC Address to find the camera you are installing.
At a PC attached to the same LAN that will be shared with your camera, determine the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway of your PC and record it in Table 1. To find this information, do the following at the Windows desktop: Hold down the Windows key and press r to open the Run dialog box. www.digiop.com...
