These instructions describe how to use the OnVIF Device Manager application to interface with the
camera’s software with the camera connected directly to a standalone PC.
Step 1 Download “OnVIF Device Manager ”
From the internet, download the OnVIF Device Manager application from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/ . After the application has down-loaded, the OnVIF icon
displays on your desktop.

Step 2 Power On Standalone PC
Before connecting the GBOT S1080 IP Network Camera, first power on the standalone PC without the
Ethernet cable connection, and, second ensure that the PC’s Ethernet interface is configured to use
DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. In this case, because there is no DHCP server running on
the network, the PC will obtain an Auto-IP address in the 169.254.0.0 class B subnet. See
Section 4.0,
IP address Provisioning via DHCP , for detailed information on required PC settings.
Step 3 Connect Camera to Your Computer
Using an Ethernet cable, connect one end of the cable to the LAN/POE slot in the back of the camera
and the other end to your computer (see Figure 2.2).
