Frequently Asked Questions - ELIP-2037PIR Monacor

How do I change the IP address of the camera?

Use the device search tool from Monacor's website. Change the camera's IP to match your LAN's IP scheme (e.g., 192.168.1.x). Avoid IP conflicts by pinging the address first.

What is the default login information?

Default username: admin, password: 123456. It is strongly recommended to change the password for security.

How do I reset the camera to factory settings?

Use the device search tool. Find the camera in the list, right-click and select 'Reset Factory' or click the reset button in the tool.

How do I upgrade the firmware?

Obtain the firmware from your supplier. Use the web browser, search tool, or PC client. Go to Configuration > System > Update, browse for the firmware file, and click Upgrade.

Why can't I access the camera via web browser?

Ensure your computer's IP is in the same subnet as the camera (default 192.168.0.x). Use Internet Explorer only. If the problem persists, use the search tool to modify the camera's IP.

How do I get the RTSP video stream?

Main stream: rtsp://IP:554/h264?username=admin&password=123456. Sub stream: rtsp://IP:554/h264cif?username=admin&password=123456. For snapshots, use http://IP/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?stream=0 (HD) or stream=1 (low).

How do I enable motion detection and recording?

Enable motion detection in Configuration > Event > Video Detection. Set up email/FTP for snapshots. For NVR recording, activate motion detection schedule on the recorder.

How do I set up remote access via smartphone?

Download the Danale app from App Store or Google Play. Register an account, add the camera by scanning its QR code or searching LAN. Use the P2P ID or QR code from Configuration > Network > P2P.

Why is my NVR not displaying video from the camera?

Check that the NVR and camera have the same IP scheme. Use ONVIF protocol with correct username/password. If the NVR doesn't support H.265, change the camera encode mode to H.264.

How do I control the motorized zoom lens?

Zoom can be controlled via the camera's web interface, PC client software (UC), the search tool preview window (mouse wheel), or the NVR's PTZ menu.

Note:

1. The camera should be connected to an OPTIONAL 12 volt power supply if you do not use PoE (Power over Ethernet).
2. A Windows computer is more convenient to setup and troubleshooting.

Modifying the camera's IP address

Default: IP address: 192.168.0.123, Username: admin, Password: 123456

( We strongly recommend modifying the default password for your security).

Each IP camera has the same default IP address after leaving the factory. In order to guarantee network connectivity and access the live video, it is essential to change the camera's IP address to unique via computer before using. To quickly configure the IP camera, download the device search tool from the Internet: www.monacor.com -> Support -> Downloads.

Before modifying the IP address you'd better confirm the IP network planning and avoid IP address conflict.

Steps on Local Area Windows 10 PC : Search Windows -> cmd -> ipconfig /all

Now you can get all the local network information.

IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.?

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default gateway: 192.168.1.1

DNS Servers: 192.168.1.1

Note : You can also find out the LAN configuration via Windows GUI

Right-click on the Network icon and select open Network and Sharing Center.

If the camera is installed to work with the local switch or router directly, the camera IP range should be 192.168.1.x (x=2-254). To void IP conflict, you should test and select an unoccupied IP like this:

Command Prompt ping test

Only when reply unreachable that means the IP address is no conflict and available, otherwise when you see time reply do not use this IP address.

There are three methods to modify the camera IP configuration, Search tool, UC Client software and Internet Explorer.

Using Device Search Tool

a. Click Start Search and all your cameras in the LAN will be listed. Modify IP address to suit the LAN's IP scheme. There are two modifying methods available: 1) Right click on the desired camera and choose "Modify IP address". 2) Click the ALL check-box then click "IP Batch Setting".

b. You can also enable the camera DHCP function if there is a DHCP server available in the LAN.

Most router has DHCP server built-in. (IP address in DHCP setting may change after device restart. We do not recommend leaving the IP camera on DHCP).

Tips:

Reset Password -> Restore default settings;

Video full-screen -> double-click video;

Firmware upgrade -> Select the check-box, click Browse then click File Upgrade.

(Default user name: admin, Password: 123456)

1. Go to the Devices Config and click Start search, all the camera in the LAN will be listed. Highlighting one of the camera will populate the filed above. Change the parameter listed in the field and click on "Modify IP" to modify the camera's IP address. Please modify the default IP address to match your LAN's IP scheme. Note: Be careful when setting up IP addresses to not have duplicated IP as other devices in LAN.

2. After changing all the IP cameras' IP address, you can search again and add them all to the UC client. Once the cameras are added, go to the tab Video View and drag the camera into the split windows to start previewing the cameras.

Working with Internet Explorer

To access the camera's web interface, type in the IP camera's IP address in Internet Explorer's URL bar to gain access to the login page. Please modify IP address to the same subnet if login page can not load.

(Default user name: admin, Password: 123456); only IE is supported.

From the login page, select your familiar language, then log in with the username and password.

Working with Internet Explorer

Install Web Plug-in when red line characters prompted. You may have to download WEBConfig.exe and run it as administrator. After installation, restart or refresh your web browser and access the IP again. The live video will start automatically after login successfully.

Note: Only the Motorized Auto Focus cameras can Zoom In and Zoom Out. Keeping pressing on live video and dragging for Digital Zoom.

Working with NVR

The IP camera supports standard ONVIF protocol and it can be added to third-party video recorder. Some of the models support both H.264 and H.265 encode mode. The H.265 encode cameras can compress the video data to a very low bit rates which allows more video data storage than normal H.264 camera. Only configure the camera to H.265 mode when your NVR supports H.265 mode Before pairing cameras to the NVR, make sure the NVR and cameras have valid and matching IP scheme.  Note: Some of the PoE NVR supports Plug & play, which allows you to get video without manually search and add. if Plug & play feature is not available or not compatible, please follow the NVR manual steps and select ONVIF protocol as the paring protocol. (camera default password: 123456) If the POE NVR can not discover the connected camera or can not display the camera video, please check it's internal POE interface IP configuration and make sure all connected cameras and NVR POE interface are in the same subnet schema. For more help please contact the both NVR and IP camera suppliers for technical assistance.
