Section 1: Product Overview
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the DCS-2230L Full HD Wireless Day/Night Network Camera. The DCS-2230L is a versatile
surveillance solution for your small oce or home. The full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution 2 megapixel progressive scan CMOS
sensor lets you capture details like never before – especially important for face recognition. A built-in IR-cut lter and IR LED
makes sure you don't miss an event no matter how bright or dark your surroundings are. To make things convenient, support
for Wireless N means you can easily connect it to your network when setting up your camera on location.
Unlike a standard webcam, the DCS-2230L is a complete system with a built-in CPU and web server that transmits high quality
video images for security and surveillance. The DCS-2230L can be accessed remotely, and controlled from any PC over your
local network or through the Internet via a web browser. It also comes with the D-Link D-ViewCam™ software bundle that
allows you to manage multiple network cameras using remote monitoring, scheduling, recording, motion detection, and
notications for a complete and cost-eective home security solution.

Section 1: Product Overview
Full HD Resolution
The DCS-2230L Full HD Wireless Day/Night Network Camera is equipped with a 2 megapixel progressive scan CMOS sensor that provides full HD
1920x1080 resolution, the video stream captures a larger scene and provides more details than an analog CCTV camera – so you can identify
criminals more easily in critical surveillance applications.
Wireless N for Convenience
The DCS-2230L supports Wireless N, which lets you connect your camera to your network without using an Ethernet cable. This feature lets you set
up your camera anywhere without worrying about running network cables to your location.
IR LED for Day and Night Functionality
The built-in IR-cut lter and IR LED enable night time viewing or recording in dark environments at ranges up to 16 feet (5 meters).
DI/DO for Connecting External Devices
Rounding out the exibility of the DCS-2230L, you can connect an alarm or trigger to its DI/DO port for integration into a surveillance solution.
Remote Monitoring Utility
The D-ViewCam™ application adds enhanced features and functionality for the DCS-2230L and allows administrators to congure and access the
DCS-2230L from a remote site via Intranet or Internet. Other features include image monitoring, recording images to a hard drive, viewing up to
32 cameras on one screen, and taking snapshots.
Built-in Mic and Speaker
Covering all the visual components, the DCS-2230L also has a built-in microphone and speaker, so you can transmit two-way audio easily.
mydlink Support
Embrace the power of the cloud by adding your DCS-2230L to the list of devices manageable via the free mydlink web portal.
Web Conguration
Using a standard web browser, administrators can congure and manage the DCS-2230L directly from its own web page via Intranet or Internet.
This means you can access your DCS-2230L anytime, anywhere in the world.
Broad Range of Applications
With todays high-speed Internet services, the DCS-2230L can provide the ideal solution for delivering live video images over the Intranet and
Internet for remote monitoring. The DCS-2230L allows remote access using a web browser for live image viewing, and allows the administrator to
manage and control the DCS-2230L anytime, anywhere in the world.

Section 2: Installation
This D-Link device can connect to your wireless network from anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. However, the number,
thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary
depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range
is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between your adapter and other network devices (such as your DCS-2230L) - each wall or ceiling
can reduce your adapters range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters).
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet
(1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle, it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick. Position your devices so that the signal will travel straight through
a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may weaken the wireless signal. Try to position your access points,
wireless routers, and other networking devices where the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects such as
glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters away from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or other radio frequency sources (such as microwave ovens), your wireless connection may degrade
dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits
a signal even if the phone in not in use.
