The IP address of your camera after purchasing from the store is automatically set to 192.168.0.30 in
case DHCP is not used. Set the IP address of your personal computer in the same subnet. (The
network segment must be the same segment when directly connecting using a cross cable or
connecting through the hub) When connecting more than one camera, connect each camera using IP
Address 192.168.0.30 and change the IP addresses of the second and subsequent cameras to other
IP addresses, such as 192.168.0.31.
●
You can also use the LAN port of your broadband router. However, when using the broadband router,
if the DHCP server function is set to "ON", turn on the power after connecting the camera with the
router. The camera gets the IP address from the router's DHCP server and it may not be 192.168.0.30.
For more information, read your user's guide for broadband router.
It is also recommended to set the computer's IP address from the router's DHCP server.
For more information, read your computer's user's guide.
