To connect to the network, the administrator needs to set the network camera IP 
address. 

There are two options to set the IP address. 

– 

Entering an IP address manually (factory default) 

– 

Obtaining an IP address automatically from the DHCP server

Entering the IP address manually. 
Your camera is set to this mode at the factory with the IP address: 192.168.0.10, 
so you need to enter this IP number manually to access the camera for the first 
time. 

z

 

Obtaining an IP address automatically from the DHCP server 
If your network uses a DHCP server, you do not need to change the IP address 
of the camera. But be sure to set DHCP ON/OFF to ON in "Network 
settings/Basic". 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE 
The IP address of the network camera is sometimes updated or changed from time to time when the 
DHCP server is used. For this reason, the network camera sometimes cannot be connected due to an 
IP address change if the network camera is accessed using the previously set IP address. 
To enable accessing the network camera in this case, a fixed IP address needs to be set with the 
network camera by setting an IP address through manual input. Please read the instruction manuals 
of the network system equipment – such as the router, hub and modem – also carefully. 
When entering the IP address manually, set DHCP ON/OFF to OFF in "Network/Basic Settings" and 
enter the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, primary DNS and secondary DNS. 

 

 

 

Two configurations are available for connection of network cameras. 

z

 

Crossover connection

Connection via a hub, switch, or router

You do not need to assign an IP address to a hub.

The IP address of your camera after purchasing from the store is automatically set to 192.168.0.10 
in case DHCP is not used. Set the IP address of your personal computer in the same subnet. (The 
network segment must be the same segment when directly connecting using a cross cable or 
connecting through the hub.) When connecting more than one camera, connect each camera using 
IP address 192.168.0.10 and change the IP addresses of the second and subsequent cameras to 
other IP addresses, such as 192.168.0.11. 

z

 

You can also use the LAN port of your broadband router. However, when using the broadband 
router, if the DHCP server function is set to "ON", turn on the power after connecting the camera 
with the router. The camera gets the IP address from the router's DHCP server and it may not be 
192.168.0.10. 

 

 

 

For more information, read your user's guide for broadband router. 

It is also recommended to set the computer's IP address from the router's DHCP 
server. 

For more information, read your computer's user's guide.
