Access the Camera 

Now that the camera and the PC are both having their unique IP addresses and are under the 

same network segment, it is possible to use the Web browser of the PC to access the camera. 

You can use 

Microsoft Internet Explorer

 to access the camera

 

When using Internet Explorer browser, the ActiveX control for video stream management will be 

downloaded from the camera directly – the user just has to accept the use of such control when 

prompted so. No other third party utilities are required to be installed in such case. 

The following examples in this manual are based on Internet Explorer browser in order to 

cover all functions of the camera. 

Assuming that the camera’s IP address is 

192.168.0.100

, you can access it by opening the Web 

browser and typing the following address into Web browser’s address bar: 

http://192.168.0.100 

Upon successful connection to the camera, the user interface called 

Web Configurator

 would 

appear together with the login page. The HTTP port number was not added behind the IP address 

since  the  default  HTTP  port  of  the  camera  is  80,  which  can  be  omitted  from  the  address  for 

convenience. 

 

Before logging in, you need to setup the root Account and Password of the camera.   

 

Then use this newly setup 

Account

 and 

Password

 to login to the Web Configurator. 

For further operations, please refer to the 

Firmware User Manual
