1.1 Accessing the Camera
You will need to know the following information to access the camera.
•
The camera’s IP address (e.g.,
192.168.0.253
) or URL (e.g.,
bob.viewnetcam.com
)
•
The port number of the camera, if it is not 80.
•
The user name and password required to access the camera, which were set during camera setup.
1.
Start your PC’s web browser.
2.
In the browser’s address bar, enter
http://
followed by the IP address of the camera, then press
[Enter] on the keyboard.
Example:
http://192.168.0.253
If the camera’s port number is a port number other than 80, enter “
:
” and the port number after the IP
address.
Example:
http://192.168.0.253:50001
If you have registered with a DNS service, such as Viewnetcam.com (see Page 75), enter the URL
instead of the IP address. Note that accessing the camera this way may only work when you are accessing
the camera from outside, i.e., from a PC that is not connected to the same network as the camera.
Example:
http://bob.viewnetcam.com
3.
When the authentication dialog is displayed, enter the user name and password, then click [OK]. The top
page is displayed.
Note
•
If the authentication dialog is not displayed, click the [Login] tab after the camera’s top page is
displayed. For more information, see Page 109.
