2.4.1
Network Connection & IP assignment
The network camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP ad-
dress for access. Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP
addresses to connected devices. By the factory default, your camera is set to obtain the IP
address automatically via DHCP server. If your network does not have a DHCP server the
network camera will use 192.168.1.100 as the default IP address.
If DHCP is enabled and the product cannot be accessed, run the SmartManager utility on
the CD to search and allocate an IP address, or reset the product to the factory default set-
tings and then perform the installation again.
1) Connect the network camera/device to the network and power up.
2) Start SmartManager utility (Start
>
All programs
>
SmartManager
>
SmartManager).
The main window will display, and after a short while any network devices connected to the
network will be displayed in the list.
3) Select the camera on the list and click right button of the mouse. You can see the pop-up
menu as below.
4) Select Assign IP Address. The Assign IP window will display. Enter the required IP ad-
dress.
NOTE:
For more information, refer to the SmartManager Users Manual.
