Section 3 - Configuration

D-ViewCam Device Pack Setup

D-ViewCam software is included for the administrator to manage multiple D-Link IP cameras remotely. You may use the software to

configure all the advanced settings for your cameras. D-ViewCam is a comprehensive management tool for IP surveillance.

Device Pack Installation

Users who already have D-ViewCam v3.11 or higher installed must

first install the Device Pack included on the DCS-6815/6817/6818

CD-ROM to use the DCS-6815/6817/6818 camera with

D-ViewCam. Upgrading D-ViewCam to the latest device pack will

ensure that the new camera is recognized by the software. Users

running D-ViewCam v3.2 do not need to install this device pack.

For more information about D-ViewCam, please refer to the

documentation on the D-ViewCam CD-ROM.
