2.3 Network Connection and IP assignment
The network camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP address for
access. Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to
connected devices. By factory default, your camera is set to obtain the IP address automatically via
DHCP server. If your network does not have a DHCP server the network camera will use
192.168.1.100 as the default IP address.
If DHCP is enabled and the product cannot be accessed, run the “Smart Manager” utility on the CD to
search and allocate an IP address to your products or reset the product to the factory default settings
and then perform the installation again.
1. Connect the network camera/device to the network and power up.
2. Start SmartManager utility (Start>All programs>SmartManager>SmartManager); the main
window displays. After a short while any network devices connected to the network will be
displayed in the list.
3. Select the camera on the list and click right button of the mouse. The pop-up menu below
displays.
4. Select Assign IP. The Assign IP window displays. Enter the required IP address.
Note: For more information, refer to the Smart Manger
User’s Manual.
