Many common usage scenarios are handled directly by the camera’s built in
web server without the need for any software installations, downloads,
accounts or monthly fees beyond your standard internet service.
Setup of the camera is mostly automatic if you have a current, industry
standard router with the “Universal Plug and Play” feature (UPnP). Examples
are NetGear R6100 or Asus RT-N56U. Older routers and some models provided
by internet service providers may require a few manual setup steps to enable
remote viewing. Recent versions of Apple Airport routers are fully supported
by Sharx Security with our detailed, step by step setup instructions.
After you are familiar with the basic functionality of the camera you can enjoy
many additional advanced features. For instance, you can enable the
automatic sending of motion detection email alerts or automatic uploading of
pictures to DropBox or other online servers using File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
An exciting new feature is the ability to turn the camera into a DVR (Digital
Video Recorder) by recording video or pictures to the MicroSD memory card.
You can even turn the camera into a standalone NVR (Network Video
Recorder) by enabling functionality to save video files to a network server.
This could be a commercial FTP server on the internet or your own standalone
NAS (Network Attached Storage) hard drive. These features do not require a
computer. Some customers prefer to use a computer for recording video,
especially for recording multiple cameras, and that is supported with optional
software such as the $59.95 BlueIris for PCs or the $30 EvoCam for Macs.
In our experience, we find that our customers get comfortable with advanced
features quickly and then start using the camera on a daily basis to keep in
touch with their home or loved ones.
This requires a reliable network connection. If you have an older router that is
not up to the task, we highly recommend upgrading to one of the current
models
before you proceed with the camera setup.
It is important to note that you do not need an expensive router. Even current
$40 - $80 units from NetGear, LinkSys, Dlink or Asus are perfectly fine. In fact,
the most expensive routers that have too many nonstandard enhancements
can often be less desirable than the reliable mainstream 802.11 b/g/n models.
With an up to date router you’ll enjoy faster overall performance, better
wireless transmission range, and improved network security. If you have the
NVG589 router used by ATT/uVerse, please refer to the back cover page.
