NOTE: Protocol Options which allows choices on connection protocol between client and server. There are three protocols choices to optimize your usage – UDP,TCP,HTTP. The UDP protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams. However, some packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be obscured. The HTTP protocol allows for less packet loss and produces a more accurate video display. The downside with this protocol is that the real-time effect is worse than that with the UDP protocol.

The TCP guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video quality. However, the real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol. If no special need is required, UDP protocol is recommended. Generally speaking, the client choice will be in the order of UDP → HTTP. After the Network Camera is connected successfully, “Protocol Option” will indicate the selected protocol. The selected protocol will be recorded in the user's PC and will be used for the next connection. If the network environment is changed, or the user wants to let the web browser to detect again, manually select the UDP and TCP protocol, save, and return HOME to re-connect.

Therefore, once the network is set, especially for the IP address should be entered correctly. Select Use fixed IP address then the Network Camera will skip installation. The Network Camera will automatically restart and operate normally after a power outage. You can run IP installer to check the IP address assigned to the Network Camera if the IP address is forgotten, or you can use the UPnP function provided by the Network Camera (MS Windows XP

provides UPnP function at My Network Place).

(1) "Get IP address automatically"
(2) "Use fixed IP address"

- "IP address": This is necessary for network identification.

- “Subnet mask”: This is used to determine if the destination is in the same subnet. The default value is “255.255.255.0”.

For instance, when the Administrator changes the HTTP port of the Network Camera which IP address is 192.168.0.20 from 80 or 1025 to 65535, the users must type in the web browser "http://192.168.0.20:8080" instead of "http://192.168.0.20".

- "RTSP Port" RTSP port can be typed besides the default Port 554

- "RTP Port" The RTP port can be typed besides the default Port 54 Note: Please set Video RTP port in even number after default value port 54. Then, Video RTCP pot、Audio RTP port、Audio RTCP port will automatically set the values in ascending.

Syslog

The Network camera supports log the system messages on remote server. The protocol is compliant to RFC 3164. If you have external Linux server with sys log service, use "-r" option to turn on the facility for receiving log from remote machine. Or you can use some software on Windows that is compliant to RFC 3164. An example is Kiwi Syslog Daemon. Visit http://www.kiwisyslog.com/kiwi-syslog-daemon-overview/. Check "Setup" and "Enable" then input the "IP address" and "port" number of the log server to enable the remote log facility. In the "Current log", it displays the current system log file. The content of the log provides useful information about configuration and connection after system boot-up. "finish" Click on this button to save modify settings.

1. Type IP address at browser. Then you can see camera through Internet.
2. You can also type the ddns name at below label of camera on browser URL field. For example, you may type ah00001.ip-discovery.com.

Note: The firewall software at PC may block the transfer of network camera. Please remove or stop the kind software.

Q4: How can I find the network camera in the local area network?

A4: By using the IP Finder2 program or using UPnP to find it.

Q5: IP Finder2 program cannot find Network Camera in the local area network at first time?

A5: Make sure the subnet of network camera is same as your PC. If the local area network supports DHCP, the camera is "Get IP address automatically" in the "Network" page default. If the local area network does not support DHCP, change your PC IP address to "192.168.0.xxx".

Q6: How can I restore the network camera to default value?

A6: Use a gem clip to press on the inside button. Network camera begins to restore default value. You can also press the button "Factory" in "Maintenance" page to restore the default value.

Q7: I cannot play the recorded video file.

A7: Install the audio codec in the CD, and use the Windows Media Player 10 or later to play the *.ASF or *.AVI file recorded by the network camera.

Q8: Infrared led does not light up?

A8: Check「Configuration>Audio and Video>Infrared LED Control」is "Auto" or "Manual" Turn on".

Q9: The network camera cannot focus accurately.

A9:

(1) The lens is dirty or dust is attached. Clean the lens with lens cleaner. And then adjust the camera focus manually.

(2) The image may be out of focus. If the object is too near, move the object away from Network Camera.

Q10: The cover of network camera is warm. Is it normal?

A10: Network camera is a precision device. The internal material has the operational temperature, and it is normal when user touch the cover feels warm. It is recommended to put the network camera at aired place, and not put at any other device.

Q11: What is the scope of wireless network camera connecting AP?

A11: The scope of wireless connection is different from the environment. The possible interference is (1) the direction of antenna (2) the material and architecture of building (3) the temperature of environment (4) the position of the network camera.

Q12: The process of upgrade firmware abort.

A12: Contact your dealer for further help.

Q13: Cannot access the login page and other web pages of Network Camera from Internet Explorer

A13:

• May be due to the network cable. Try correcting your network cable and configuration. Test the network interface by connecting a local computer to the Network Camera via a crossover cable.
• Make sure the Internet connection and setting is ok.
• Make sure enter the IP address of Internet Explorer is correct. If Network Camera has a dynamic address, it may have changed since you last checked it.
• Network congestion may prevent the web page appearing quickly. Wait for a while. The IP address and Subnet Mask of the PC and Network Camera must be in the same class of the private IP address on the LAN.
• Make sure the http port used by the Network Camera, default=80, is forward to the Network Camera's private IP address.
• The port number assigned in your Network Camera might not be available via Internet. Check your ISP for available port.
• The proxy server may prevent you from connecting directly to Network Camera, set up not to use the proxy server.
• Confirm that Default Gateway address is correct.
• The router needs Port Forwarding feature. Refer to your router's manual for details.
• Packet Filtering of the router may prohibit access from an external network. Refer to your router's manual for details.
• Access Network Camera from the Internet with the global IP address of the router and port number of Network Camera.
• Some routers reject the global IP address to access Network Camera on the same LAN. Access with the private IP address and correct port number of Network Camera.
• When you use DDNS, you need to set Default Gateway and DNS server address.
• If it's not working after above procedure, reset Network Camera to default setting and installed it again.
• Maybe the IP Address of the Network Camera is already being used by another device or computer.
• If the problem is not solved, the Network Camera might be faulty. Contact your dealer for further help.
