Section 1 - Product Overview
Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link Wireless Network Camera lets you access your network using a wireless connection 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 network camera) -
each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s 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 2.4GHz cordless phones or other radio frequency sources (such as microwave ovens), your wireless connection
may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4GHz 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.

To create a WPS connection:
Step 1
Press and hold the WPS button for three seconds. The blue WPS status LED above

Step 2
Press the WPS button on your router or access point within 120 seconds. The WPS
button is usually on the front or side of your router. On some routers and access
points, you may need to log in to the web interface and click on an on-screen
button to activate the WPS feature. If you are not sure where the WPS button is
on your router/AP, please refer to your router or AP’s User Manual.
The DCS-5222LB1 will automatically create a wireless connection to your router
or access point. While connecting, the green LED will ash and your camera will
reboot.

the basic setup of the DCS-5222LB1, follow the steps outlined in the Quick Installation Guide.
After you have completed the setup of the DCS-5222LB1 outlined in the Quick Installation Guide you will have an operating camera that has an
assigned IP Address. Because you are using a router to share the Internet with one or more PCs, the IP Address assigned to the network camera
will be a local IP Address. This allows viewing within your Local Area Network (LAN) until the router is congured to allow remote viewing of the
camera over the Internet.

1. Assign a Local IP Address to Your Camera
Run the setup wizard from the CD included with the DCS-5222LB1. Follow the steps in the Quick Installation Guide to congure the DCS-5222LB1.
The camera will be assigned a local IP Address that allows it to be recognized by the router. Write down this IP Address for future reference.
Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type in the IP Address that was assigned to the network camera. The DCS-5222LB1 Live Video Page appears
with a window displaying live video from the camera.
Click on the Setup button on the left side. Scroll down the Network Setup page to nd the ports used by HTTP and Streaming audio and video.
2. View the network camera Using Your Internet Explorer Web Browser
65D-Link DCS-5222LB1 User Manual
Section 5 - Security
The Setup > Network page displays the port settings for your camera. If necessary, these ports can be changed if they are already in use by other
devices (e.g. in a multiple camera environment).
Note: Both the HTTP port and RTSP port are required to be opened for the DCS-5222LB1.

Section 5 - Security
The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network. The D-Link DIR-655 is used as an example to clarify the conguration
process. Refer to the router’s user manual for more information on router operation and conguration.
3. Access the Router with Your Web Browser
If you have cable or DSL Internet service, you will most likely have
a dynamically assigned WAN IP Address. ‘Dynamic’ means that your
router’s WAN IP address can change from time to time depending
on your ISP. A dynamic WAN IP Address identies your router on the
public network and allows it to access the Internet. To nd out what
your router’s WAN IP Address is, go to the Status page on your router
and locate the WAN information for your router (as shown on the next
page). The WAN IP Address will be listed. This will be the address that
you will need to type in your web browser to view your camera over
the Internet.
Router Set-Up and Installation
Your WAN IP Address will be listed on the router’s Status > Device
Info page.
67D-Link DCS-5222LB1 User Manual
Section 5 - Security
Note: Because a dynamic WAN IP can change from time to time depending on your ISP, you may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP. A Static
IP address is a xed IP address that will not change over time and will be more convenient for you to use to access your camera from a remote location. The
Static IP Address will also allow you to access your camera attached to your router over the Internet.
4. Open Ports to Enable Remote Image Viewing (Port Forwarding)
The rewall security features built into the DIR-655 router prevent users from accessing the video from the DCS-5222LB1 over the Internet. The
router connects to the Internet over a series of numbered ports. The ports normally used by the DCS-5222LB1 are blocked from access over the
Internet. Therefore, these ports need to be made accessible over the Internet. This is accomplished using the Virtual Server function on the DIR-655
router. The Virtual Server ports used by the camera must be opened through the router for remote access to your camera. Virtual Server is accessed
by clicking on the Advanced tab of the router screen.
1. Click Enabled.
2. Enter a dierent name for each entry.
3. Enter your camera’s local IP Address (e.g., 192.168.0.120) in the Private IP eld.
4. Select TCP for HTTP port, both (TCP and UDP) for RTSP and both (TCP and UDP) for 5556 - 5559 ports.
5. If you are using the default camera port settings, enter 80 into the Public and Private Port section, click Apply.
6. Scheduling should be set to Always so that the camera images can be accessed at any time.
Follow these steps to congure your router’s Virtual Server settings:
68D-Link DCS-5222LB1 User Manual
Section 5 - Security
Repeat the previous steps adding the port 554 to both the Public and Private Port sections. A check mark appearing before the entry name will
indicate that the ports are enabled.
Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80 and other commonly used Internet ports to conserve bandwidth. Check with your ISP so that you can
open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass trac on port 80, you will need to change the port the camera uses from 80 to
something else, such as 8080. Not all routers are the same, so refer to your user manual for specic instructions on how to open ports.
Enter valid ports in the Virtual Server section of your router. Please make sure to check the box next to the camera name on the Virtual Server List
to enable your settings.

Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DCS-5222LB1. Read the following descriptions
if you are having problems. (The examples below are illustrated in Windows Vista® and XP. If you have a dierent operating system, the screenshots
on your computer will look similar to the following examples.)
1. What is Remote Access? How do I enable it?
Remote Access allows you to access your camera from any PC connected to the Internet through a web browser. This lets you view your camera
feed and manage your camera’s settings when you’re away from home. To enable Remote Access, simply go through the Camera Installation Wizard
included on the Installation CD that came in your package. You can also download the wizard from the following websites:
DCS-5222LB1: http://DCS-5222LB1.mydlink.com
After going through the wizard, you should see Remote Status: Enabled on the summary page.
If you see Remote Status: Disabled, make sure that:
...the front LED on your camera is lit solid green
...your Internet connection is working
...your router’s LAN & WAN connections are working properly
...your router has UPnP enabled (if your router does not support UPnP, please refer to Appendix A)
...your router can get a public IP
...your router is upgraded to the latest rmware
...you have tried rebooting your router by unplugging it, then plugging it back in
After checking the above items, you can click the Retry button to refresh the summary screen to see if Remote Access has been enabled.
2. What can I do if I forget my password?
If you forget your password, you will need to perform a hard reset of your camera. This process will change all your settings back to the factory
defaults.
To reset your camera, please use an unfolded paperclip to press and hold the RESET button for at least 3 seconds while your camera is plugged in.

Section 6 - Troubleshooting
3. Why does the LED not light up?
The power supply might be faulty. Conrm that you are using the provided DC 5V power supply for this network camera. Verify that the power
supply is correctly connected. If the camera is functioning normally, the LED may have been disabled. See 第 56 第第第Admin第 for information about
how to enable the LED.
4. Why is the camera’s network connection unreliable?
There might be a problem with the network cable. To conrm that the cables are working, PING the address of a known device on the network. If
the cabling is OK and your network is reachable, you should receive a reply.
Another possible problem may be that the network device such as a hub or switch utilized by the network camera is not functioning properly.
Please conrm the power for the devices are well connected and functioning properly.
5. Why does the network camera work locally but not remotely?
This might be caused by a routers rewall protection. Check the Internet rewall with your system administrator. The rewall may need to have
some settings changed in order for the network camera to be accessible outside your local LAN. For more information, please refer to the section
about installing your camera behind a router.
Make sure that the network camera isn’t conicting with any Web server you may have running on your network.
The default router setting might be a possible reason. Check that the conguration of the router settings allow the network camera to be accessed
outside your local LAN.
6. Why does a series of broad vertical white lines appear through out the image?
It could be that the CMOS sensor (a square panel situated behind the lens that measures the light signals and changes it into a digital format so
your computer can present it into an image that you are familiar with) has become overloaded when it has been exposed to bright lights such as
direct exposure to sunlight or halogen lights. Reposition the network camera into a more shaded area immediately as prolonged exposure to bright
lights will damage the CMOS sensor.
7. The camera is producing noisy images. How can I solve the problem?
The video images might be noisy if the network camera is used in a very low light environments.
71D-Link DCS-5222LB1 User Manual
Section 6 - Troubleshooting
8. The images are poor quality, how can I improve the image quality?
Make sure that your computer’s display properties are set to at least 6-bit color. Using 16 or 256 colors on your computer will produce dithering
artifacts in the image, making the image look as if it is of poor quality.
The conguration on the network camera image display is incorrect. The Web Conguration Video section of the Web management allows you to
adjust the related-parameters for improved images such as: brightness, contrast, hue and light frequency. Please refer to the Web Conguration
section for detailed information.
9. Why are no images available through the Web browser?
ActiveX might be disabled. If you are viewing the images from Internet Explorer make sure ActiveX has been enabled in the Internet Options menu.
You may also need to change the security settings on your browser to allow the ActiveX plug-in to be installed.
If you are using Internet Explorer with a version number lower than 6, then you will need to upgrade your Web browser software in order to view
the streaming video transmitted by the network camera.
If you are using another browser such as Google’s Chrome or Apple’s Safari, you may need to install the appropriate plugin before the streaming
video will work.
If you are using Java, you may need to update to the latest version of the Java application. Please visit Sun’s website in order to obtain the newest
version Java for your computer platform (http://www.java.com).
You browser may also have 3rd party applications blocked. Please make sure that the browser you are using does not have 3rd party plugin support
disabled. You may need to refer to your particular browsers help function in order to turn this functionality on or o.
10. The PIR is not operating well, how can I improve the PIR quality?
- For the Passive Infrared Sensor (PIR) to function properly it is required to have direct line of site to the object. When
the room has many obstacles or the line of site is obstructed by glass, the PIR will not function properly.
- When the environment temperature is too high, the PIR detection will slow down and should not be mistaken for a faulty PIR.
- This network camera can only be installed indoors. Do not install this camera in a place where IR interference can be a problem. IR
interference can be found close to glass doors or windows, where direct sunlight can cause interference or in the path of car headlights.
- Do not install this camera next to or in front of an air conditioner outlet or vent.
- Do not install this camera close to wireless devices with high frequencies as the PIR is easily aected by RF radiation.
72D-Link DCS-5222LB1 User Manual
Section 6 - Troubleshooting
- The PIR functions at best when detecting lateral movements. Radial movements cannot be detected as well as lateral movements.
- Do not install this camera directly under an extreme bright light. The PIR cannot fully suppress a bright white light.
- Any movements from an object with a normal body temperature, like humans or animals, can be
detected. To avoid any malfunctions, install this camera at the proper height.
- To avoid any malfunctions, install this camera in an environment with an average temperature of 25°C. Only within
a distance of 2.5 meters can smaller movements of an object, with the average adult human’s height, be detected.
Between a distance of 2.5 and 5 meters, a larger movement of an object is required for detection.
- Install this camera on a rm, static, anti-shock surface.
