Remote Viewing
Open a web browser (Internet Explorer), in the Address Bar of your browser type in your external IP address
and open port number. Use the following format:
http://IPADDRESS:PORT
. As an example, you would use
http://12.34.567.89:30000 for the address and port number in image on pg 6.

Notes
The view that you see remotely is the current view that you have showing in the software. e.g. if you are
showing channel 2 (camera 2) in the software, this is the view you will see when logging in remotely. If
you want to see all 4 cameras from your remote location, make sure you have quad-view displayed.
Capture software must be running or it will not broadcast your video feed.
“Remote-View” is exactly that - a live view from a remote computer. This will not work from a computer
that is on the same network.
Occasionally, your ISP may change your external IP address. It may also change after a power outage, or
if you’ve turned off or unplugged your broadband modem. If your remote view stops working, check to
see if your external IP address has changed.

A Few Words About Remote-View Technology
Streaming video is only as good as the equipment and connections that enable it. There are many
variables that affect how smooth the video stream is that you actually see remotely. These variables
include the speed, current load, and bandwidth of the internet connections of both the web server
(your computer) and the remote view computer or smart phone, your ISP’s limitations on bandwidth,
the speed and current load on your cellular network (2G, 3G, 4G, etc). Video loss and freezing video are
typically due to an insufficient internet connection. If video loss or freezing occurs this will not affect
WUSB recording.
