Using the Panasonic IP Setup Software to Set Up the
Camera
Use the Panasonic IP Setup Software provided (from here on, IP setup software) to make

Important
• When Windows
®
XP SP2 is used, an important alert screen regarding security may be
displayed when the IP setup software is started up.
If this happens, click the [Unblock (U)] button.
• To enhance the security, the IP setup software no longer displays the MAC address and
IP address of the target camera when about 20 minutes elapses since the camera was
turned on. Note, however, that when the network settings (IP address, default gateway,
subnet mask, HTTP port number, DHCP setting, user ID, and password) are still at their
defaults when the camera was bought, the MAC address and IP address of the target
camera are displayed even after about 20 minutes elapses since the camera was turned
on.
• The IP setup software cannot be used on different subnets via a router.
