Other than the last 3 digits, all devices on a LAN share the same IP address. The portion of the address 
common to all devices is known as the network address. Most home networks use either 192.168.0 or 
192.168.1 for their network address. If you know your network address, you can simply combine it with the 3 
digits shown on the camera’s display to determine the complete IP address of the camera. For example, if your 
network address is 192.168.0 and the camera display is showing 020, the IP address for the camera is 
192.168.0.20 (drop leading zeros). You can easily determine your network address by checking the IP address 
of any PC on the network or using the Observer Setup Utility. 
 

 

The Observer can sit on a flat surface, such a shelf or bookcase, be mounted to a wall using the included 
bracket, or mounted atop a tripod stand using the standard tripod mount located on the underside of the base.  
When using the camera free standing, be sure to secure the cables. Failing to secure the cables could cause 
the camera to be pulled off the mounting surface resulting in damage to the camera. 

The mounting bracket included with your camera provides convenient mounting to vertical surfaces, such as 
walls. The camera support platform can be tilted up or down to help point the camera toward your area of 
interest. You can also rotate the camera in any direction on the platform. 

 
Note: The Observer uses DHCP by default, meaning its address can change. You can assign a 
static (fixed) IP address by selecting this option and changing the address manually. Refer to 
Chapter 5: Observer Setup Utility for more information. 
 

 
CAUTION: The camera should be mounted indoors  or inside a weatherproof enclosure.  
Outdoor exposure may result in damage and will void your warranty.
