wireless connection via a router which shares the same LAN as the desktop
computer. The wireless network can be set up using SSID to perform the remote
operation.
1. Once the camera is switched on, use the mobile device or tablet computer
to search for SSID through Wi-Fi and establish a connection. As the image
demonstrates below, the SSID name of the camera is IPCAM111113, which
is derived from the term “IP CAM”, with 111113 being the last 6 digits of
the MAC address of the device, hence the SSID name IPCAM111113.
Enter the default password “12345678” for accessing the SSID. Once the
connection has been successfully established, open the IPmotion APP, click on
New Device, and click on WiFi icon as framed in the image below.
The same SSID name will be displayed in the WiFi interface which you have just
entered. Click on the SSID and enter its account name and password. (Account:

4. SD Card
Please Insert t h e Micro SD card before use it. Make sure t o push the Micro
SD card into the slot completely.
a. Playback
Click the date under the Playback title and a list of files will pop up.
For example, if the date 2017/11/07 is clicked, all the events happened within
that time frame will then appear in a list like the one below.
The enlisted files under Video category are files representing events.
There are 3 types of file formats, and each is different for its own Event Type.
Notice how the file name formations under the Video category represent the
time when a file is created. For instance, the file name “214601m.avi” means
the video is recorded at 21:46:01 today, m means Motion Detection, and avi
represents the file format.
Click on the file name to open the file.
For avi files, you need Microsoft Media Player which is supposedly
built-in in your PC. The default Username & Password for playing the video
file are both admin.
Clicking on an IVS file (such as 215655i) will bring out a pop-up window
suggesting an IVS event captured as snapshots as the one below:
Clicking on any title that is labeled with “time unit” (such as 21 o’clock) at the
end will bring out a pop-up window indicating the snapshot taken as scheduled
in Schedule mode and enabled in Snapshot mode.
Click the icon to delete any file by marking on the checkbox under the Del
category with a mouse click.
b. Record
The recording mode is enabled after Record is set in Schedule mode.
Take the schedule calendar below for example, the grids coloured in green
between 3~12 are scheduled to start recording from 3 o’clock to 12 o’clock
from Monday to Thursday.
Once the recording mode is on, the video data recorded will be found and
labelled as 2017/11/09.
Click on 2017/11/09 to enter the next page where all files recorded on that
date are enlisted.
Click on any video title to open Microsoft Media Player (supposedly
already built-in in your PC) and play the video file. Key-in admin for
both Username & Password to get permission to view the video.
The number at the bottom indicates the distributive law of the current SD
Card memory which is divided and assigned to different types of recording
purposes. The left side shows how much memory is still available, and the
right side shows how much the total memory is.
If the memory of the SD card is over 128G, 70% of the memory will be used
for scheduled recording, and 30% will be used for event recording.
If the memory of the SD card is below 128G, 50% of the memory will be used
for scheduled recording, and 50% will be used for event recording.
Click the icon to delete any file by marking on the checkbox under the
Del category with a mouse click.
c. SD Management
c1. Auto Deletion: Choosing “The 1st day” means the recoding file will be kept
for one day. Example: It is five o’clock now. Choose “The 1st day”. The files will be
kept from five o’clock yesterday to five o’clock today. The oldest file will be deleted if
the Micro SD card is full.
Note：The use of the SD card will s l i g h t l y affect the operation of the IP
Camera, such as affecting the frame rate of the video.
c2. Format SD Card: Click the icon to process the SD Card formatting into
FAT32 format. Be cautious that since it only supports FAT format for SD Card
over 64G, please format SD Card into FAT32 before installation.

Factory Default
If you forget your password, please follow the steps to set back the IP Camera
to its default value.
• Keep the power through while it is already switched on.
• Use any hard & tiny little stick to reach into the hole where there is a
word “Reset” right under. Press and hold the button within as
demonstrated in the picture below.
• It will take around 5 seconds to boot the camera.
• Release the button when the camera finishes booting.
• Re-login the camera using the default IP (http://192.168.1.200), and user
name: admin, password: admin.
Universal Password
If you forgot the password of your IP camera, you can reset the camera to factory
default, or follow the procedure below to generate a universal password.
Note: Universal password will be valid only when you enable the function in User
Management.
1. First, you need to know the IP address and MAC address of your IP camera.
You can use IP Scanner to scan the LAN, and see the IP address and MAC
address on the side column.
Or, if you already know the IP address of camera: Open the web browser, key in
http:// (IP address) /GetIPMAC.cgi and press enter. The IP address and MAC
address will be displayed on browser.
2. Locate the .html file named Universal Password_V1.1 in the Universal
Password from the Applications folders in CD-ROM. Open it with a web
browser.
3. The camera IP address and MAC address will be displayed automatically in
both IP Address and MAC columns.
After clicking on encoder, a set of username and password will appear.
The universal username and password are generated from the IP address and
MAC address you key-in, so if you change the camera IP address the universal
password changes, too.
4. Take the generated username and password. Use them to log into the
camera.
5. Now you can login as administrator. Turn to User Management page. The use
of universal password does not affect the previous user setting, so the
administrator account password does not change until you edit it. Please click
Edit to give a new administrator password.
