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 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.
When logging in for the first time, enter the default account and password.
