Get IP address automatically (DHCP):
The camera’s default setting is “Use fixed IP address”. Please refer to the previous section 5. Accessing the
Camera for login with the default IP address.
If “Get IP address automatically” is selected, after the IP Camera restarts, users can search the IP address
through the installer program “GRUNDIG Finder.exe”, that is on the supplied CD.
NOTE: The DHCP function can only be used if you have a DHCP server in the used network.
NOTE: Please make a record of the IP Camera’s MAC address, which can be found on the label of the camera, for
identification in the future.
Use a fixed IP address :
To set up a static IP address, select “Use fixed IP address” and move the cursor to the IP address blank (as
indicated below) and insert the new IP address, e.g. 192.168.44.230; then go to Default Gateway (explained later)
and type in the appropriate setting, e.g. 192.168.44.1.
Click on “Save” to confirm the new setting.
When a note for system restart appears, click on <OK> and the system will restart. Wait for 15 seconds. The
camera’s IP address in the URL bar will be changed, and users have to login again.
When using a static IP address to login to the IP Camera, users can access it either through the “GRUNDIG
Finder” software (see 5. Accessing the Camera) or input the IP address in the URL bar and click on “Enter”.
