ENTERING THE DNS INFORMATION INTO THE CAMERA

STEP 1. Open another browser window
and enter the camera's Local IP
address which you obtained in
Section 2.4.
STEP 2. When the browser window has
opened, you will be presented with
a login screen for the Q-See Web
Service. Since you're on the same
network as the camera, you will want
to select LAN from the options at the
bottom of the screen.
The default username and password are admin and admin. It is recommended for security
reasons that you change the password once you have finished making your settings.
Internet Explorer users may be asked to download an ActiveX plug-in from Q-See
International, Ltd. Firefox and Chrome users may be asked to allow QuickTime to run. In these
cases, you should allow the required plugins to operate. In some cases, you will be returned
to the log in screen after the plugin has loaded. This is normal.
If you are able to log in with Internet Explorer, but are unable to view the video from the
camera, please adjust the ActiveX settings as described at the end of Section 2.5.
