Accessing the Web Configuration Utility
After completing the Camera Installation Wizard, you are ready to use your camera. The camera’s
built-in Web configuration utility is designed to allow you to easily access and configure your
DCS-2530L. At the end of the wizard, click Go To Camera, or enter the IP address of your camera
into a web browser, such as Internet Explorer
®
. To log in, use the User name admin and the
password you created in the Installation Wizard. If you did not create a password, the default
password is blank. After entering your password, click OK.
Note: If you are directly connecting your PC to the camera, or if you are using the camera on
a closed network, the default IP is 192.168.0.20.
Please make sure that you have the latest version of Java application installed on your computer
to ensure proper operation when viewing the video in Java mode. The Java application can
be downloaded at no cost from Sun’s web site (http://www.java.com).
When you connect to the home page of your camera, you may be prompted to download
ActiveX. If you want to use ActiveX to view your video images instead of Java, then you must
download ActiveX.
