Accessing the Camera 

Configure the IP Addresses 

In order to be able to communicate with the camera from your PC, both the camera and the PC 

have to be within the same network segment. In most cases, it means that they both should 

have very similar IP addresses, where only the last number of the IP address is different from 

each  other.  There  are  2  different  approaches  to  IP  Address  management  in  Local  Area 

Networks – by DHCP Server or Manually. 

 

Using DHCP Server to Assign IP Addresses 

If you have connected the computer and the camera into the network that has a DHCP server 

running, then you do not need to configure the IP addresses at all – both the camera and the 

PC  would  request  a  unique  IP  address  from  DHCP  server  automatically.  In  such  case,  the 

camera will immediately be ready for the access from the PC. The user, however, might not 

know the IP address of the camera yet. It is necessary to know the IP address of the camera in 

other to be able to access it by using a Web browser. 

 

The quickest way to discover the cameras in the network

 is to use the simplest network 

search, built in the Windows system – just by pressing the “Network” icon, all the cameras of 

the local area network will be discovered by Windows thanks to the UPnP function support of 

our cameras. 

 

In the example below, we successfully found the camera model that we had just connected to 

the network.
