DDNS Setup
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is simply a way of using a static hostname to connect to a dynamic IP address.
When connected to your ISP, you are assigned a temporary IP address. DDNS services keep track of your
IP address and route your Domain name to that address when you wish to connect to the camera from a
remote location.
[DDNS] Enable or disable DDNS connection.
How to add DDNS
1. Enable the Dynamic DNS function.
2. Select your preferred DDNS service provider from the list then click Register.
3. Enter the Host Name details and password supplied by your DDNS service provider when you registered.
4. Click Apply to confirm your settings.

UPNP Setup
The camera supports UPnP which is enabled by default. This function requires a Windows XP/Vista
operating system. It is a quick way to discover the camera on your network. Please make sure that the
UPnP function is enabled on your PC.
[UPnP] Enable or disable the UPnP function.
[Gateway HTTP/RTSP port forwarding] Enable or disable this function.
[External HTTP/RTSP port range] Using this port, automatically adds a port forwarding rule to a router via
UPnP protocol. Please note that not all routers support this function. Refer to your router manual for further
details.
If set port range is 8150~8350, camera will ask router to add a port forwarding rule automatically. In this rule,
the internal port is camera default port 80, the external port is 8150, IP address is camera's IP. Use this
setting, users can visit the camera from Internet through the router with this URL http://routeripaddress:8150.
If there are several cameras in Local Network, the first one which first be opened will use 8150 as external
port, and second one will use 8151, third one use 8152, etc. Every camera will remember its port, it will
preferentially use this port in next power on.
[Gateway RTP port forwarding] Enable this function, users can use mobile phone , RealPlayer or
QuickTime Player to visit the camera from Internet through the router.
[External RTP port range] 30000—30200 default. (See TCP/IP setup)
Click Apply to confirm your setting.
Click System at the top right of Settings page to show the System information. See figure below.

ADVANCED SETTINGS
Port Forwarding
The UPnP Setup of camera show a method of Port Forwarding（see page 40 for details），but some routers
maybe can’t support UPnP Port Forwarding, therefore, users need to configure Port Forwarding manually.
Firewall security features built into the router may prevent users from accessing the camera over the Internet.
The router connects to the Internet over a series of “ports”. The default ports used by the camera are usually
blocked from access over the Internet, therefore, these ports need to be made accessible. This is achieved
using the Port Forwarding function on the router. The ports used by the camera must be opened through the
router for remote access to your camera. Check your router’s user manual for specific instructions on how to
open and route ports on you router.
Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80 and other commonly used Internet ports. Check with your
ISP in order to open the appropriate ports. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to
change the camera’s default port number from 80 to a different number such as 9000.
Viewing Your Camera
To access the camera from a computer on your local network, simply enter the IP Address of the Camera
followed by a colon and the camera’s port number. It is not necessary to enter the colon and port number if
you are using the camera’s default port 80.
To access the camera from the internet, type the external IP Address of the router, followed by a colon, and
the port number of your camera (e.g., Http://210.118.166.68:9000).
69
Proxy Server Setting
A proxy server may prevent you from connecting to the camera in some corporate environments. The web
browser can set up the IP address communication without using a proxy server. Consult your ISP or network
administrator for further details.
Note: A proxy server is generally used to maintain security on a network when connected to the internet.
The proxy server may cause lack of image quality and delays in refresh intervals. Consult your ISP or
network administrator for further details.
1. Start Internet Explorer.
2. Select [Tools] –> [Internet Options...] –> [Connections] tab and click [LAN Settings].
Verify that the Use a proxy server check box is not checked. When checked, click [Advanced...].
When not checked, click [Cancel]. Your proxy server settings should not cause any problems.
3. Enter the IP address of your camera into the Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning
with data field.
4. Click [OK] on all of the opened windows.

Reset the camera
There are two ways to reset the camera back to its factory defaults:
1. Press the Reset button on the side of the camera through the pin hole.

on a computer network, even over the Internet, using a standard web browser.
2. JPEG: A standard image format, used widely for photographs, also known as JPG.
3. IEEE 802.11b/g: The specifications developed by the IEEE for wireless network technology. It provides
11 Mbps transmission in the 2.4GHz band usage.
4. WEP: Wireless Equivalent Privacy. A security protocol for wireless network defined in the IEEE 802.11b/g
standard. WEP aims to provide security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is
transmitted from one end point to another.
5. Adhoc Mode: A wireless network system in which devices communicate directly with each other, without
the use of a wireless router.
6. Infrastructure Mode: One of the wireless network system in which devices communicate with each other
by first going through the wireless router.
7. IP Address: The unique 32 bit number assigned to each computer connected to the Internet. IP numbers
are used by the TCP/IP protocol to route packets of data to their destinations.
8. TCP/IP: The collection of "protocols" underlying the functioning of the Internet. Each computer connected
to the Internet is identified by a unique IP Address.
9. SMTP: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.
10. FTP: File Transfer Protocol. Network cameras equipped with an embedded operating system, such as
Linux, can use FTP to send images to a website.
11. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol is a set of rules used by communications devices such as
a computer, router or network adapter to allow the device to request and obtain an IP address from a server
which has a list of addresses available for assignment.
12 UPnP: Universal Plug and Play is an architecture for pervasive peer-to-peer network connectivity of
intelligent appliances and wireless devices.
13. DDNS: DDNS is a method of keeping a domain name linked to a dynamic IP address with your Network
Camera. You can set up your DDNS service and the device will automatically update your DDNS server
each time it alter a different IP address.
14. Time server: A time server consists of a computer networking device that reads the actual time from a
reference clock and distributes this information to its clients using a computer network.
15. WPA: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) is a class of systems to secure wireless (Wi-Fi)
computer networks. WPA implements the majority of the IEEE 802.11i standard, and was intended as an
intermediate measure to take the place of WEP while 802.11i was prepared.
