Frequently Asked Questions - DCS-6004L D-LINK

How do I set up the D-Link DCS-6004L camera for the first time?

Connect the camera to your network via Ethernet cable, attach power (if not using PoE), then insert the installation CD and run the Setup Wizard. Alternatively, if you have a D-Link Cloud Router, Zero Configuration will automatically configure it.

Does the DCS-6004L support wireless connectivity?

No, the DCS-6004L is a wired PoE camera. It requires an Ethernet connection. The DCS-6005L is the wireless version.

How can I access my camera remotely?

Register for a mydlink account at www.mydlink.com, add the camera to your account, then log in from any web browser to view live footage.

What are the system requirements for viewing the camera?

A computer with Windows 8/7/Vista/XP or Mac OS X 10.6+, 1.3 GHz processor, 128 MB RAM, and a web browser with Java and ActiveX enabled (Internet Explorer 7+, Firefox 12+, Safari 4+, Chrome 20+).

How do I mount the camera on a wall or ceiling?

Separate the camera head from the mounting base, use the alignment sticker to mark screw holes, drill holes, insert anchors if needed, attach the base with screws, then reattach the camera head and adjust the angle.

Can I adjust the viewing angle after installation?

Yes. Remove the camera housing, loosen the retaining screw with a Phillips screwdriver, manually adjust the lens to the desired position, then tighten the screw and reattach the housing.

What does the WPS button do on the DCS-6004L?

The DCS-6004L does not have a WPS button as it is a wired camera. The DCS-6005L (wireless) has a WPS button for easy wireless setup.

How do I reset the camera to factory defaults?

Press and hold the reset button (located on the camera) for 10 seconds using a paperclip until the LED blinks. The camera will restart with factory settings.

What should I do if the camera power LED is not lit?

Check the power connection. If using PoE, ensure the switch provides PoE. If using the adapter, verify the outlet works. If still off, contact D-Link support.

How do I clean the camera lens?

Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the lens. Do not use any liquids or chemicals. Avoid touching the lens with fingers.

PRODUCT SETUP SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

• A router (a D-Link Cloud Router is recommended)
• A broadband Internet connection
- An e-mail account (required to register for mydlink service)
- Computer with:

• Microsoft Windows® 8/7/Vista/XP, or Mac with OS X 10.6 or higher
  • PC with 1.3 GHz or above and at least 128 MB RAM
• Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 12, Safari 4, or Chrome 20 or higher version with Java installed and enabled
• Existing 10/100 Ethernet-based network or 802.11g/n wireless network

If you have a D-Link Cloud Router, you can take advantage of Zero Configuration Setup. This feature automatically configures your camera's settings for you and adds it to your mydlink account automatically. If you do not have a D-Link Cloud Router, you can use the Setup Wizard to install and configure your camera, as described in the following section.

Step 3:

If you are going to power the device using Power over Ethernet, you can skip this step and continue with the configuration of the device. Otherwise, attach the external power supply to the DC power input connector located on the inside of the camera and connect it to your wall outlet or power strip. Power is confirmed when the green LED Power Indicator is lit.

Step 4:

Reattach the camera housing by lining up the housing so that the access port on the housing matches the access port on the camera base. Firmly push down until the camera housing snaps back onto the camera base.

USING THE INSTALLATION WIZARD

If you do not have a D-Link Cloud Router, you can simply use any Windows or Mac computer to go through the Installation Wizard from the CD, which will guide you through the installation process from connecting your hardware to configuring your camera.

If you do not have a CD-ROM drive, or the CD is missing, please download the Setup Wizard from http://www.mydlink.com/support

- Windows Users: Insert the CD. Simply click Set up your Cloud Camera to go through the Setup Wizard. If the Setup Wizard program does not automatically start on your computer, go to Start > Run. In the run box type D:\autorun.exe (where D: represents the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive) and click OK.

- Mac Users: Insert the CD. On the desktop, open your CD drive, double-click on the SetupWizard file, wait about 20-30 seconds, and follow the instructions.

GETTING STARTED WITH mydlink

mydlink is a web-based service which allows you to view and control your mydlink-enabled devices through any computer connected to the Internet. If you have cameras linked to your mydlink account, you will be able to see their live views using the mydlink website. Follow the instructions below to access your mydlink account.

• Open a web browser on any computer connected to the Internet.
• Type http://www.mydlink.com in the address bar and press Enter.
  • Sign in using your mydlink account.

• From the home screen, you will be able to view all devices which have been linked to your mydlink account.

• Ensure that your browser supports both Java and ActiveX, and that these features have been installed and enabled.

• Windows does not have Java installed by default. You can download the latest version from http://www.java.com
• In Mac OS X 10.7.x, Java applets are disabled by default. To enable Java applets, click the Finder > Applications > Utilities > Java Preferences and check the Enable applet plug-in and Web Start applications option.
• The ActiveX® controls in IE will install automatically if needed. We suggest that you make sure that you have enabled the related options in Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom Level.

MOUNTING THE CAMERA

Please refer to the steps below to assist you with mounting the camera. We suggest that you configure the camera before mounting.

Step 1:

The camera needs to be separated from the mounting base to expose the holes in the mounting base. Remove the camera head from the mounting base by firmly holding the camera with the D-Link logo facing you and then sliding the mounting base towards you.

Step 2:

Place the mounting base alignment sticker where you want to position the camera. Depending on the material of the wall or ceiling, use proper tools to drill two holes where you placed the alignment sticker. If the wall is made out of concrete, drill the holes first, then insert the plastic anchors to support the screws.

Step 3:

Place the mounting base over the holes that are in the wall. Make sure to align the mounting base holes with the holes in the wall. Use the supplied screws to attach the mounting base to the surface of the wall.

Step 4:

With the D-Link logo facing you, reattach the camera to the mounting plate by sliding the camera towards you until it locks into position.

Step 5:

Adjust the direction of the camera as desired by rotating it.

ADJUSTING VIEWING ANGLE

TROUBLESHOOTING

SETUP AND CONFIGURATION PROBLEMS

1. HOW DO I CONNECT MY CAMERA USING WPS? (DCS-6005L ONLY)

We recommend that you use either the Zero Configuration or Setup Wizard method described earlier in this guide as they will automatically configure your camera for your wireless network.

If you wish to use WPS to connect your camera, follow these steps:

• Press and hold the WPS button on the back of the camera for 5 seconds. The blue WPS status LED will blink.
• Press the WPS button on your wireless router or access point within 60 seconds. On some routers, you may need to log into the web interface and then click an onscreen button to activate the WPS feature. If you are not sure where the WPS button is on your router or access point, please refer to your router's user manual.

You can find software updates and user documentation on the D-Link website.
