6 Access the camera from your Web browser.

From your Web browser (Internet Explorer), access the camera and log into the system as an "admin" user (administrator).

When you access the camera and log into the system, live video from the camera appears on the live screen.

If the live screen displays no or distorted video, check your operating environment and connection conditions.

8 Configure the necessary settings on the administrator configuration screens.

Although the camera is already configured with the factory default settings so that you can monitor live video immediately after you log into the system, you need to configure necessary settings according to your installation environment and application of the camera.

If this is the first access to the camera, start by configuring the system clock on the CLOCK SETTINGS screen.

9 Use associated software applications to extend the capabilities of your surveillance system.

Install the following associated software applications on your PC, as required:

VA-SW3050Lite (supplied): Monitor application for monitoring video images from more than one camera simultaneously on a multi-view screen.

VA-SW3050Server/Client (optional): Recorder/player application for recording and playing back streaming video data from the network.

Setting Up IP Addresses Automatically (Auto IP Setup)

If you are installing two or more new cameras on the same local network, you need to change the factory default IP address of each camera to prevent IP address overlap. The supplied "Auto IP Setup" software frees you from this burden by automatically assigning a unique IP address to each camera on your network.

Before setting up the IP addresses automatically, click the [Search Cameras] button in the utility window to search all cameras on the network and display the address settings and details of each camera.
